Books are obsolete! Says the new knowledge seeker who learns by barraging themselves with internets. But I learn by turning the page! Says the traditional reader. That's just it! Mattis Myhra imagines a library of the future where students of all learning disciplines can gather together in education,
(books included.)
Myhra suggests that these two people : the book reader and the, shall we say, modern reader, are divided by lines of age. I suggest otherwise. I've got a sister that doesn't read blogs of any sort - while my mother, on the other hand, has just joined Facebook. We live in a transitional period. Everyone is learning differently.
On to the library!
Myhra's concept is a building where all people can gather and supply themselves with words! As you'll read with the examples below, each element combined creates what amounts to a full-blown community center. This place is a giant. Multi-leveled, (as all great libraries should be), ready for the future, and full of possibility.
This library is made to be set in Bjørvika - a harbour in Oslo, Norway. But from what I'm seeing here, it'd be home in many cities around the world.
What would you like to see in your ideal city library?
