The individual study spaces are located in a narrow L-shaped reading gallery towards the entrance
square, separated from the shelf areas by a crevice of light that extends up four storeys.
A large organically shaped carving in the lower floor – leading from porch to counter – defines the
flow in the entrance area of the building. A light steel staircase in the interior crevice of light runs up
through the storeys.
The library is a developing project focussing on energy saving measures. Refrigeration of the
building is embedded in the concrete floors and connected to a geothermal facility.
