武藏野艺术大学博物馆和图书馆是我最近看到的最有趣的项目之一,它提出了一种用户和书籍之间的新关系,被它们包围和庇护。

One of the most interesting projects I’ve seen in a while, the Musashino Art University Museum & Library proposes a new relation between the user and the books, surrounded and sheltered by them.

我们有机会询问了Sou Fujimoto关于在信息时代设计这个项目的挑战,你可以在上面的视频中看到。
这个项目是为日本一所非常著名的艺术大学设计的新图书馆。它涉及到设计一个新的图书馆建筑,并将现有的建筑翻新成一个艺术馆,这将最终创造一个图书馆和艺术馆的新整合。

We had the chance to ask Sou Fujimoto about the challenge of designing this program in the information age, as you can see on the above video.
This project is a new library for a highly distinguished art universities in Japan. It involves designing a new library building and refurbishing the existing building into an art gallery, which will ultimately create a new integration of the Library and the Art Gallery.

下面描述的项目是新图书馆的计划,它位于整个开发项目的第一阶段。
作为一个巨大的方舟,总共有20万个单元,其中10万个单元将在一个开放的档案库中,而另一半则在一个封闭的档案库中,安放在这个建筑面积为6500平方米的双层图书馆中。这是一个由书架组成的图书馆。

The project described hereinafter is the plan of the new library which sits within the first phase of the total development.
Acting as a huge ark, a total of 200,000 units, of which 100,000 will be in an open-archive, while the other half, within a closed-archive, rests within this double-storey library of 6,500㎡ in floor area. It is a library made from bookshelves.

当我想到构成一个终极图书馆的元素时,我想象着书籍、书架、光线和气氛。我想象了一个被一个螺旋形的书架包围的地方。

When I thought of the elements which compose an ultimate library, I imagined books, bookshelves, light and the atmosphere. I imagined a place encircled by a single bookshelf in the form of a spiral.

包裹在无限的螺旋形中的领域本身就是图书馆。9米高的墙壁的分层创造了一个无限的书籍森林,并以大的孔隙作为点缀。

The domain encased within the infinite spiral itself is the library. An infinite forest of books is created from the layering of 9m high walls, punctuated by large apertures.

书架的这种螺旋序列继续下去,最终作为外墙包裹了场地的外围,使建筑的外部外观与图书馆一样具有书架的元素构成。
在大学的景观中,人们与这个巨大的长书架相遇,立刻就能感受到它是一个图书馆,但其梦幻般的简单性却让人吃惊。它是最像图书馆的图书馆,也是最简单的图书馆。

This spiral sequence of the bookshelf continues, eventually wrapping the periphery of the site as the external wall to allow the external appearance of the building to share the same elemental composition of the bookshelf as the library.
One’s encounter with the colossally long bookshelf, within the university landscape, registers instantaneously as a library, yet astonishing in its dreamlike simplicity. It is the library most library-like and the simplest library.
