NEW REGIONAL LIBRARY OF MURCIA PHASE 4: EXTENDED VERSION
<< THESIS >> -Murcia’s library is reinventing the concept of library: the place to not only preserve knowledge, but to amplify it. -Movement vs static: the Contrast between the continuous flow and the staticity of the study spaces. -The library as a mall: with no walls, no doors, no exit. Only the objects define the space. -The mall is a community centre with social mixture and transhuman politics. -The library is an icon for Murcia and a magnet for the public activity. -The unused plaza next to library is Murcia’s extra space. -The library is a hub for self-expression and creativity. -The library is Murcia’s Huerta.
