Inspired by the tension between the artificial grid and wild overgrowth, the project translates this "reclaimed interior" into an ecological critique of the traditional library.
While traditional libraries represent rigid control and taxonomy, gardens embody unruly, autonomous growth.
The design rejectsthe "caging" of knowledge, reimagining a derelict greenhouse as a library typology where information and ecology grow in untamed synergy.
Inspired by the contrast between rigid grids and wild growth, the project reimagines a derelict greenhouse as an ecological library. It challenges the traditional library’s rigid system of control and classification, replacing it with a space where knowledge and nature grow freely together. The design creates a “reclaimed interior” that allows information, people, and ecology to interact in a more open and organic way.
