Creative Campus Library Design by ZAUBERSCHO(E)N & BUEHLER UND BUEHLER

The Leonardo Campus in northern Muenster forms using the academy of art, the muenster school of architecture and also the school of design an innovative-campus on the website of the former trooper barrack. it inventories of three institutions are incorporated inside a library and support the walls of an element of the former equine stables. the shelves needed more room. but where? Previously horses was while watching stables, the books are likely to stand t h e r e. They’re presented with a glass facade, whose large-sized glass sections are strengthened by glass fins. This facade from especially obvious glass shapes your building through its great transparency. The books so become throughout daytime and particularly during the night in the outdoors an essential focus from the college campus and thus form an unforgettable manifestation of education. The area is devided into three parts while offering different working atmospheres towards the students. In advance the facade developes into three study-carrels to have an undisturbed learning, within the rear stands a sizable table for groups, separable as needed with an acoustic curtain. Like a transformable element it may form a person thinking-zone or open a bigger area. The outdoors is printed having a electronically produced motive based on the “School of Athens“ by Raphael. Through its indifference the curtain creates a continuously altering regards to space. Gottfried Sempers postulate for polychromy and the conclusion that color includes a less bawling effect than glaring plain whitened becomes obvious within the interaction of intense eco-friendly ceiling and black floor using the chromaticity from the trees outdoors and also the brick colour of the nearby structures. Searching with the facade the nearby seems in glossy, a lot more colorful as this is often experienced outdoors your building. Behind your building the wing-like roof rests on three posts. Their form is orientated on the moment of motion from the leg of the equine who’ve been moving there in former occasions. They’re electronically produced along with a product of the computer supported, modern steel technology. In Muenster it proverbial rains a great deal. Along a wide open cullis around the entire entire building the rain fall has been staged and turns into a spacial experience because it drops lower just like a curtain in type of another layer while watching glass facade. The rainwater has been collected within an infiltration ditch while watching building and came back ecologically towards the terrain. Between new and old roof an easy gap fires up the historic stable wall. Stairs and openings within the wall prevent dead stop and lead for an interconnection of historic building and new extension. The extension from the Library for Architecture, Art and Design emerged from the design project around the münster school of architecture. Your building continues to be finished in April 2010. Around the occasion of the project a student planning team zauberscho(e)n continues to be founded in june 2008. The realisation continues to be completed along with Bühler and Bühler Designers, Munich.
