기후 미디어 코스모스 “미나 노 모리”는 일본의 한 복판에 대중을 위한 문을 열었다. 내부적으로는 다양한 독서 공간과 휴식 및, 공부를 위한 공간을 구획한 거대한 공간을 만드는 것이 계획이었다. 굴곡진 지구본같은 이것은 3차원 입체 폴리에스터로 만들어졌는데, 아래 공간으로 빛이 필터링 되어 내려오게 되는 구조이다. 1층의 중심에는 책장과 갤러리 공간이 있는 반면 위층에는 방문객들이 일련의 회전 목재로 된 유닛들을 통과하여 오픈 공간의 도서관으로 들어올 수 있다. 지탱이 가능한 기술들을 통합적으로 적용하여 천정의 캐노피는 라티스 목재로 만들어 졌고, 아래쪽의 도서관으로 자연 채광을 허용할 수 있도록 사이 사이를 오픈시켰다.

About 40 years ago I worked for the local tourist office in Dun Laoghaire and I was based in Moran Park [the locals called it moron park] and at the time I would not have believed it if someone had predicted that I would about 20 years later be employed by a high-tech company based in Haigh Terrace only a few years away from the tourist office. My employment at Haigh Terrace did not last long because I was encouraged by senior management to move on. I returned to Dun Laoghaire about two years later because of an amazing an unexpected opportunity to join Ericsson. I remained with Ericsson for about ten years and then I decided to leave because the operation was to be re-located away from Dun Laoghaire. The reason why I mention my working life in Dun Laoghaire is because I am very familiar with the area were the new Library is now located. When I worked for the Tourist Office a drugs culture was beginning to take root in Dun Laoghaire [it was one of the first areas to have such a problem]. Then when I was based in Haigh Terrace many of the staff were unwilling to work overtime as the area was not safe at night as Moran park was populated by dealers and their drug addicted clients. When I joined Ericsson the town of Dun Laoghaire was entering into an economic depression from which it has yet to recover … the fact that Ericsson and other multi-nationals relocated did not help. Today if you walk along the main street you will see many empty shops especially near the peoples park. But despite the decline there is now much to like about the town. The People’s Park has been re-developed and it is now very attractive and well worth a visit. The East pier is amazing and the seafront is now an attractive area with many good restaurants. The new Public Library, officially called DLR Lexicon, opened today and because the weather was beautiful this morning I decided to visit and form my own opinion about the new structure which as been described [denounced] as a monstrosity and an extravagant waste of more than €30 million of taxpayers’ money. Despite what the locals believe the development has attracted much positive comment with The Irish Times describing the building as follows: “The new building is an oblong wedge, both in plan and elevation – something that’s more obvious from the sea than it is up close. It tapers to an enormous gable window facing towards Howth, a grand gesture that offers some of the most spectacular views of Dublin Bay, while side windows look out to either Dún Laoghaire or Sandycove. Clad in Iberian granite on its monumental north elevation that addresses the park, and in English red brick with granite coursing on the Haigh Terrace side (in sympathy with many of the town’s Victorian buildings), it was consciously designed to link the busy seafront area known as The Metals with the main shopping street, which is in a bad way.” Have a look at me photographs and form your opinion or better still pay a visit to Dun Laoghaire sooner rather than later.

Unfolding Bookshelves 중흥초등학교 도서관 리모델링 한국에서 학교건축물은 변화하는 시대를 수용하지 못하고 과거의 이념에 따른 건축물형태가 변함없이 사용되어온 대표적인 건물유형 중 하나이다. 운동장은 관리자 중심의 긴 학교건물에 둘러싸여 있고, 이 길다란 건축물안에는 긴 편복도를 따라 교실들이 일렬로 나열되며 학생들은 그 안에서 한방향만 보도록 배치되며 차곡차곡 획일적으로 관리되듯 담겨왔다. 하지만, 근래에 급격히 줄어든 학생수 덕분에 기존의 학교 […]
