There's no paint on its walls. This fact will put off some traditionalists, but the bare concrete does not bother me. For me, this library, designed by Henning Larsen Architects (renowned in Denmark), is a structure of beauty.
It's so fasyon and trendy! Though I despise functionalist modernism, your library has enough style and edge to make it interesting. Ours look sucky by comparison!
wah abbs! miss ya much!!!
ReplyDeleteoooh how nice and moderno! i especially like the donut shelves and the scrabble tile-like alphabetical markers.

ReplyDeletedon't you just wish we had a library culture back home? then again, we'd never have the budget for it.
