Abstract

In einer Welt, in der Informationen unbegrenzt online zugänglich sind, muss die Rolle von Bibliotheken neu überdacht werden. Die neue öffentliche Bibliothek in Oslo ist ein herausragendes Beispiel dafür. Im Gegensatz zur traditionellen Vorstellung von Bibliotheken als Archive stellt dieses imposante Gebäude der beiden Architekturbüros Lundhagem und Atelier Oslo eine radikale Interpretation der Bibliothek als lebendigen Ort der Begegnung und des Verweilens dar – eine neue Art von öffentlichem Raum. Mit seinen beeindruckendenMultimediadiensten und einer unaufdringlichen, einladenden Umgebung ist Deichman Bjørvika bereits zu einem kulturellen, sozialen und intellektuellen Zentrum geworden. Dieses Buch dokumentiert detailliert den Entwurfs- und Bauprozess, von den ersten Entwürfen der Architekten bis zur Eröffnung des fertigen Gebäudes. Essays der Schriftstellerin Elif Shafak und der langjährigen Bibliotheksdirektorin Liv Sæteren erläutern die Bedeutung von Bibliotheken als integrative gesellschaftliche Kraft. Niklas Maak würdigt die Osloer Stadtbibliothek aus der Perspektive der Architekturkritik. In a world where information is available online almost indefinitely, the role of libraries must be rethought. Of this, the new Oslo Public Library is an outstanding example. In contrast to the traditional notion of libraries as archives, this imposing building by Lundhagem and Atelier Oslo represents a radical interpretation of the library as a vibrant place to meet and to linger – a new type of public space. Deichman Bjørvika documents the design and building process in great detail – from the architects’ first drafts to the opening of the completed building. Essays by novelist Elif Shafak and the library’s long-time director Liv Sæteren explain the significance of libraries as an integrative social force. Niklas Maak pays tribute to the Oslo Public Library from the perspective of architectural criticism.

Abstract

Libraries are so much more than collections of books. They are archives of knowledge, spaces of study, sources of inspiration and connection. Among the world’s most universal and democratic places, they are also outstanding icons of architecture that represent the societies that built them. Temples of Books celebrates the world’s oldest and grandest shrines to the written word, as well as new and tiny ones: from baroque palaces to micro-libraries made of recycled plastics, and the unlikely ones in between. Looking at the diverse architecture of global libraries throughout the ages, Temples of Books goes further and explores the very idea of libraries themselves. This is a book about the beauty of books, a book for book lovers and for those who believe in the power of ideals. --Gestalten
