*파리시 외곽, 미디어 도서관 [ Pascale Guédot ] Paris library

반응형

미디어 도서관의 지향점은 분명하다. 나무를 향해 or 나무를 둘러싼 건축환경과 외부환경과의 관계생성을 통해 발현된 외형이 그러하다. 파리시 외곽, Bourg-la-Reine시 중심부에 자리한 음악온실, 교회 그리고 시립 미디어 도서관의 U자 형태와 다면체로 이루어진 형상이 이를 증명한다. 이 도시의 터주대감 100년이상된 호두나무는 이곳 자연을 상징하며 미디어 도서관의 중정에 자리한다. 이를 향한 건축물(중정으로 면한 내부 입면)은 바닥에서 천장에 이르는 전창을 통해 내외부를 밀착(오픈환경)시키는 한편, 도로에 면한 측면은 모놀리틱한(솔리드) 메시브함으로 도시와 관계한다. 특히 전체 건물을 마감짓는 판석형태의 규암석은 다면체로 이루어진 건축물을 모놀리틱(거대한 하나의 덩어리로 보이게 하는)한 특성을 배가시키는 동시에 건축물의 고유한 캐릭터를 구축하는 디자인 요소로 적용된다. 이와같이 건축물은 다양한 면에서 도시 및 자연 그리고 사람과 만나는 면을 생성, 그대로 디자인되고 건축이되며 앞서 말한 석재마감으로 특정을 부여 받는다.

The chunky quartzite walls of this library on the outskirts of Paris are faceted to accommodate the span of a century-old walnut tree at the centre of the site.
Paris studio Agence Pascale Guédot designed the media library for a plot amidst the city hall, church and music conservatory in the heart of Bourg-la-Reine, a suburb of the French capital.
The faceted U-shaped form, designed to curve around the trunk of a the tree, is covered in slim sections of pale grey quartzite – a type of heat and pressure-treated sandstone.



The dimensions of the stonework vary across each facade, while thinner blocks were used to cover the roof's metal substructure.
"A landmark building, the new media library is deliberately visible and identifiable, yet it blends politely with the existing urban fabric," said architect Pascale Guédot.
"The layout and form of this media library evolved naturally from the will to preserve a 100-year-old walnut tree."
"Respectful of the setbacks, it refrains from overshadowing the neighbourhood," she added.
"Shy of signalling its existence, it calls for a discreet discovery as one comes nearby. Only then is one struck with the force of the volumes and the architectural identity."
The building presents large glazed openings on the street-facing aspect, but solid stonework folds away from the road at either side to encircle a garden to its rear.
The roof too is also faceted, with an asymmetric pitch that is steeper on the garden side to leave sprouting room for the tree's branches. Wooden decking surrounds the base of the tree to provide a sheltered outdoor reading area.
"This is a building, which is not afraid of stating its bulk," said the architect. "The facade of the media library presents several folds, each facet responding to a specific context and a particular constraint."
"The monolithic character of the construction is reinforced by the use of a grey quartzite stone," she added.
The goalposts shifted between the design and construction phase, with the library downsizing its collection by 40 per cent, said Guédot. This led to the inclusion of more public meeting areas and seating.
Bright green cushions are arranged on the terraced floor at ground level, providing an impromptu reading spot adjacent to the decking, while loose furniture can be arranged to adapt the building's primarily open spaces for a changing programme.
A children's reading room occupies one corner of the ground floor, while smaller reading rooms are tucked away against the exterior walls.
The main reading room sits at the top of a wide staircase on the upper floor. This level is almost entirely open-plan, with a handful of private meeting rooms positioned at the ends of the space.
