MARTA PESSARRODONA LIBRARY
Ayto. Sant Cugat del Vallés, Diputació de Barcelona
Situation: Sant Cugat del Vallés
Status: Completed

Descripció

Aquesta biblioteca forma part de la xarxa de biblioteques públiques de Sant Cugat del Vallès i ocupa part de la planta baixa i la planta primera del volum central del conjunt edificat del Mirasol Centre.
La planta primera, a on es desenvolupa el programa principal de la biblioteca, és concebuda com una gran sala diàfana de planta quadrada, un espai de format sensiblement horitzontal. La necessària condició que ha de permetre el recolliment i la introversió té com a contrapunt l´obertura cap a l´exterior a través de les seves tres façanes envidriades i els generosos voladius que alhora les protegeixen.
El sostre i terra continus, les prestatgeries que organitzen el programa amb una alçada que no interrompen la visió de la totalitat, el color blanc, la cura amb la il.luminació i unes poques i clares indicacions gràfiques, faciliten la percepció d´un lloc per a la lectura i el silenci.

Description

This library is part of the network of public libraries in Sant Cugat del Vallés and occupies part of the ground floor and first floor of the central volume of the Mirasol Centre building.
The main program of the library is developed on the first floor. It is conceived as a large open room square plan, a format space substantially horizontal, necessary to allow for gathering and introversion and has a counterpointed opening outwards through its three glass facades and the generous eaves that protect them.
The ceiling and floor are continuous; the shelves that organize the program at a height that does not interrupt the whole vision, the white color, the careful lighting and a few clear graphical displays facilitate the perception of a place for reading and silence.

El techo y el suelo continuos, las estanterías que organizan el programa con una altura que no interrumpe la visión de la totalidad, el color blanco, el cuidado con la iluminación y una pocas y claras indicaciones gráficas, facilitan la percepción de un lugar para la lectura y el silencio.
