역동적인 도서관의 파사드 디자인은 종이공작, 오리가미를 연상시키는
시퀀스를 만들어 낸다. 순수한 도형의 레이어 사이로 열린 내부 공간은 도시와의
호흡을 위한 오픈 디자인으로 디자인 됨과 동시에 빛의 움직임에따라 다양한
얼굴을 만들어 간다.
여기에 역동적인 볼륨은 내부공간 속으로 침투하며 공간의 다양성을
표출하는 도구로, 내부 오픈 스페이스를 프로그래밍하는 기준으로
동선과 개실을 만든다.
그렇게 도서관은 퍼블릭 스페이스 속에 아이텐티한 스페이스를 형성한다.

The building reveals its preciousness at first sight. Its pure,
sophisticated geometry situates it as a public building. The deliberate
areas of transparency reveal its content. The reading rooms present
the building to the town in the manner of an invitation. The multimedia
library is covered with large white veils that reflect the light. The
building asserts it lightness, like an origami. The successive folds
and flaps repeat this image. It is white, almost immaterial, like the
mere projection of a concept, yet it is brimming with the life that
constitutes it beyond its physical limits.

On the inside, there is abundant, uniform light. The space is open and fluid, offering optimal flexibility. The lighting effect produced by the tall gaps that appear to float in space is truly beautiful. The volumes are independent and geometrically free, giving the whole a wonderfully poetic feel.
