These days students and researchers expect to find computers and Internet access
in their libraries, not just reference books.
Like other libraries, Frankfurts city and university library is also having to keep pace
with new technology and the impact this is
having on the requirements of research and
study. Built in the 1960s by Ferdinand Kramer this building with its stark, spacious interior has now been renovated and fitted out
with furniture-like units that can easily be
dismantled at a later date if required; this
was an important consideration dictated by
the buildings listed status. Compartments
and corner seating units divide the foyer into
areas for research and communication. Illuminated screens opaque, twin-walled
polycarbonate panels mounted in a steel
frame further divide the space while also
concealing all the cabling for lighting and
computers. In the reading hall shelving units
double up as study decks (known as combi-boxes), providing areas to work and
browse on two levels. Along the window wall
two long wooden partitions, indented in
plan, carve out individual study carrels,
compartments for private study. The new fittings were all made of black-stained MDF, a
cost-effective solution with a pleasant, contemporary feel. Certainly the students seem
to approve of the refurbishment, judging by
the competition for places in the carrels and
on the combi-boxes.

Rouens new theatre, named after the Russian revolutionary dramatist and novelist
Maxim Gorky, was created out of a building
that was fitted out in the 1960s as a cinema.
Remodelling the interior space and expanding seating capacity was the requirement
set out in a competition in 1998. However, it
was not until six years later that the renovation was finally completed. Now the auditorium in this drama-only theatre can accommodate 468 people, on banked rows of
seating that can be dismantled as required.
The seating is new and placed more closely
together than in the old cinema hall. Also extended was the stage area, now equipped
with a versatile proscenium in front of the
main stage. Just outside the auditorium, at
the back, is the foyer with upper-floor gallery, providing sufficient space for the theatre-goers in the intervals. The spectacle
starts in this theatre even before the curtain
goes up coloured entirely in fiery red, the
hall seems to swallow up the visitors like the
jaws of some giant hungry beast. Shades of
anthracite used on the front of the stage and
the chairs contrast with this. The segmented
cladding panels on the ceiling and interior
walls of the auditorium are angled to fit the
shape of the space. Made of veneered laminated wood, the panels fan out, leaving
gaps between them where the angles differ,
thus allowing a glimpse of the black background. Behind the panels is a steel frame
to which the 18-mm thick wooden panels
are affixed. The lighting is incorporated in
rectangular openings at the junction of wall
and ceiling cladding. On the long walls behind the cladding is a black-varnished steel
walkway, visible to the audience as it breaks
through to cross the auditorium at ceiling
level. This walkway gives the lighting and
stage technicians access for maintenance
and installation work. The main problem with
the old cinema hall was its poor acoustics,
improved in the new theatre by fitting the
panels. All the cladding panels and the
flooring, also of veneered laminated wood,
are in red, the colour of the Communist Party and highly appropriate for the theatres
namesake.
