猎人角社区图书馆

Queens, NY, United States. 2019

项目概况 +

功能: Library with adult reading collection, children's area, teen area, cybercenter, conference room and outdoor amphitheater

业主: Queens Public Library and the New York City Department of Design and Construction

规模: 22,000 sq ft

阶段: 竞赛

项目坐落于纽约东河岸的核心位置,与周边迅速崛起的摩天公寓大楼形成鲜明对比。22,000平方英尺建筑面积的皇后区公共图书馆,位于猎人角,它在作为公共建筑的同时也作为一个市民公园,旨在为长岛市河滨区域提供社区专用的空间。

为了抵制近期高层住宅将公共图书馆和人们所需的社交空间逐渐合并的趋势,猎人角图书馆是一个相对独立的个体,它仅占用32,000平方英尺场址面积的极小部分,为当地社区留下最大的绿色空间,并使其成为河岸边充满生机的公共公园的一部分。

垂直的建筑结构使人重新思考传统图书馆的模式,馆内提供从私人阅读区到开放性活动空间的各类型空间。喷涂有铝涂料的混凝土外壳代替幕墙系统和立柱,使其在作为立面的同时也拥有承重墙的特性。立面上雕塑般的切口清晰可见室内人行动线,它同时勾勒出曼哈顿天际线的广阔视野。

建筑东立面雕塑般的切口对应展示了图书馆的分区,包括儿童区、青少年区和成人区。这些功能分区并没有被严格的划分。建筑内部,竹子所具有的温和感营造出一种欢迎、开放包容的氛围,该场所对社区和所有年龄段的人开放。自然光透过四周的几个大窗户进入室内,为整个空间添加生气。

沿着一系列开放的楼梯向上可以看到一排排书柜。在这里,电子产品和纸质图书的隔阂在网络中心工作站与连接的书柜中逐一被消除。图书馆主要部分是位于首层平面的礼堂,用于公开见面会和举办大型活动的场所。楼梯在夹层中不断地切换以连接各区域的阅读空间,它结束在屋顶花园阅读露台,在此处可以饱览城市与河流的美景。

尽管这个建筑平面紧凑,从剖面上来看,新图书馆是开放的。其内部空间的流动最大程度地减少了能耗,同时将公共绿色空间最大化。图书馆的东侧入口邻近一个可供人阅读的花园,这个花园与一个充满银杏树的矮小公园办公亭相连接。

在夜晚,沿着河滨线望去,猎人角图书馆发出的光芒与百事可乐和老龙门架上的“长岛”标志在一起,共同成为这个新社区的灯型标志。

  • Michael Kimmelman, The New York Times, September 18, 2019 “The library is among the finest and most uplifting public buildings New York has produced so far this century.”
  • Justin Davidson, New York Magazine, September 23, 2019 “The Hunters Point library is contemplative, peaceful, cheery, and exuberant about the metropolis just outside.”
  • James Russel, Architectural Record, September 24, 2019 “Holl’s design shows how a public place can be created with transcendent allure, which is as important today as it was in the early 20th century, when Carnegie-funded libraries rose as beacons of opportunity in cities across the country. If it draws more users—especially those who are intimidated because they lack reading or language skills—the value of the library’s design will be incalculable.”
