Due to the digitalisation of study material the future academic library will facilitate only the act of studying. As such, these five new study centres function as embassies of tranquillity in a turbulent city, a place where you can concentrate or socialise with people with a similar purpose. A variety of meticulously proportioned rooms make up the interior. The internal configuration and diversity of rooms accommodate different modes of studying. Their permanent character, emphasised by their structural expression, can be seen as a statement and approach towards durability. Their monumental appearance is expressed in their scale and size in relation to their context. The proportions of the facade result in an overall architectonic language that, besides relating to its direct surroundings, identifies with the city on a larger scale.
