架构师提供的文本描述。2010年，当穆拉多

Text description provided by the architects. In 2010, when Murado & Elvira Architects won the competition to design the Public Library and Historic Archive of the city of Baiona (Spain), they decided   to design a place that would convey a  sense of domesticity to its users: they came  up with the idea of a warm wooden dress, tailor-made  for the ancient building. A dress that covers the interiors of the architectural body, leaving the exterior almost unchanged. The old Sancti Spiritus Hospital thus reconquered its original role, by becoming a new home for scholars and readers. And for tourists too. The city of Baiona, located on the west coast of Spain, is located along the Camino de Santiago and is visited every year by thousands of pilgrims. In  addition, the Baiona Historic Archive is one of the most relevant in the area, preserving  documents dating back to the discovery of Americas. Baiona was in fact the port where La Pinta, one of the three caravels led by Christopher Columbus towards the New World, arrived on its way back in 1493.

初来乍到的好客扩大到图书馆。贝奥纳公共图书馆位于前圣玛丽教堂(SantaMaría)之后，建于17世纪，位于前圣玛丽教堂(SantaMaría)之后，是一座建于17世纪的现有建筑，它是一座两层楼，嵌在倾斜的历史城市中心，有一个花园和一个内部庭院。这座建筑被列为“国际文化遗产”(文化遗产)。尽管它的地位，但在过去的几个世纪里，它经历了重大的变化，一些影响到庭院和花园，这些改变逐渐失去了它们的意义；另一些由于1970年代的干预而严重地改变了内部结构，被抹掉和变形了。

An incipient hospitality expands into the library. Accommodated within the former Sancti Spiritus Hospital, an existing structure built in the 17th century behind the ex-collegiate church of Santa María, the Baiona Public Library is a two-level building embedded in the sloped historic city  center with a garden and an inner courtyard. The  building is listed, protected as a 'Bien de Interés Cultural'(Heritage of Cultural Interest). Despite its status, it has suffered major  alterations in the course of the centuries, some affecting the patio and garden, that had come to lose their significance; others heavily modifying the interiors, that due to an intervention occured in the 1970s were obliterated and deformed.

穆拉多的改造项目

The renovation project by Murado & Elvira aimed to restore the desirable role of the outdoor spaces and redefine the historical identity of the building through the careful design of a succession of rooms in which to host its new public functions.

“当我们第一次参观老建筑时，我们觉得我们的项目需要创造一个新的内部特征，连接和延续旧建筑”，克拉拉·穆拉多和胡安·埃尔维拉。

“When we first visited the old building we felt  the need for our project to create a new interior identity, connecting and giving continuity to the old structures”  Clara  Murado and Juan Elvira.

建筑师们仔细观察和质疑历史。这可以在空间序列中清楚地感觉到，它引导游客从城市织物的开放空间到阅览室所提供的最亲密的状态。在一楼，一条很大的走廊穿过大楼，就像一条通向庭院和花园的室内街道。这是一个真正的介绍新性质的建筑，一个即时和意想不到的时间通过它的概述。这一主轴的标志是一堵厚厚的石墙，让人联想到古老的花岗岩结构，它汇集了原始建筑的考古作品，将记忆和遗产与建筑物的新功能联系在一起。

History has been carefully observed and questioned by the  architects. This can be clearly perceived in the spacial sequence that guides visitors from the open spaces of the urban fabric to the most intimate condition offered by the reading rooms. On the ground floor a large hallway transverses the building like  an indoor street that leads to the patio and the  garden. It is a real introduction to the new nature  of the building, an immediate and unexpected overview of time that passes through it. This main axis is marked by a thick stone wall, reminiscent of the old granite structure, that gathers archeological pieces from the original building, bonding memories and heritage to the new function of the building.

坚固和材料的墙壁结构是平衡的软和温暖的木箱外观，包括历史档案馆和所有服务室的入口右侧。因此，这座建筑立即揭示了它的双重性质，以及它重申其欢迎游客的使命的能力。

The solid and material wall structure is counterbalanced by the soft and warm appearance of the wooden box containing the Historic Archive and all the service rooms to the right of the entrance path. The building thus immediately reveals its dual nature and its ability to reaffirm its vocation for welcoming visitors.

在另一边，朝院子敞开，是儿童图书馆，有着独特的不规则形状，给了它一个有趣的身份。穆拉多

To the other side, opening  towards the courtyard, is the children’s library, with a distinctive irregular shape that gives it a playful identity. Murado & Elvira used the  asymmetric perimeter of the building to  their advantage in order to design what may be the most characteristic room of the complex. Its position allows sunlight to come in, while giving to the kids a quiet and safe place to play inside. Textile floors offer a comfortable surface to sit on while some folding surfaces, made of the same material, give shape to inclined planes  to recline upon Similarly  to the Historic  Archive, rooms are completely wrapped in  warm maple wood: the architects  used curved wooden walls to integrate shelvings and some openings to hidden spaces  behind, such as a wardrobe and a puppet theatre.

三层楼梯将地面连接到主要阅览室所在的上层：庭院中有两层室外楼梯，从内部通道可直接进入一层室内楼梯。围绕着露台，这一开放的空间，其中的木质内信封是庆祝，是由一系列的间隙室，个人书房，浴室，办公室和长凳阅览室。从地板到垂直墙壁，双枫木皮完全拥抱这一空间。同样的枫木也被用作三角形表面的天花板，在描述不断变化的体积的同时，也适应了机械系统的结构和空间需求。阅览室四周的窗户一直通到花园，环绕着设施的北面和东面。这个花园可以从正门通过走廊进入。

Three  stairs connect  the ground to the  upper floor, where the  main reading room is located:  two outdoor stairs in the courtyard,  one indoor stair directly accessible from  the inner accessway. Encircling the patio, this  open space, where the wooden inner envelope is celebrated,  is composed of a series of interstitial rooms, individual study  alcoves, bathrooms, offices and bench reading rooms. A double maple  wooden skin  embraces  this space  completely, from  the floor to the vertical walls. The  same maple wood has been  used also for the ceiling in  a triangulated surface that, while  describing an ever-changing volume, adapts  to the structure and to the dimensional needs  of the mechanical systems. All around the reading  room windows open up to the garden, surrounding the  North and East sides of the facility. The garden is accessible from the main entrance through  a hallway.

温暖而清晰的建筑空间。一种温暖而浅色的枫木表面，逐渐覆盖建筑身体的内部表面，如上皮组织，既能保护又能传递情感，向空间传达一种家庭生活和舒适的感觉。

A  Warm and Articulated Architectural Space. The  warm and  light-colored  maple wood surfaces  that cover progressively  the inner surfaces of the  architectural body, as with an  epithelial tissue that can protect  but also transmit emotions, convey a  sense of domesticity and coziness to the spaces.

 Axonometric

它们在建筑群的不同房间之间创造了一个连续体，从而推翻了传统的设计策略，即提供一个单一的外部皮肤的建筑物。这个内信封是穆拉多设计的图书馆最独特的特征。

They  create  a continuum  among the various  rooms of the complex, thus overturning the more conventional design strategy of providing a building with  a unitary external skin. This inner  envelope emerges as the most distinctive characteristic of the library designed by Murado & Elvira Architects. While from the outside the Sancti Spiritus Hospital seems to have apparently remained untouched  by their renovation project, when stepping inside one is immersed  in an unexpected and surprising environment. This new skin rejuvenates the building, which is for the most part mono-material, without erasing its history, making the Sancti Spiritus Hospital a place where everyone can find his own spot, a pilgrimage center for citizens and tourists.

在这个意义上，象征是底层，在那里枫木和灰色花岗岩石材的对比欢迎用户进入一个空间，过去融合成现在。镶嵌在石头上的考古发现让人想起了古代圣斯皮里图斯医院的记忆，并面对着历史档案馆的木箱，那里的遗产现在保存在那里。

Emblematic in this sense is the ground floor, where the contrast between the maple wood and the grey of the granite stone welcomes users into a space where the past merges into the present. The archaeological finds embedded in the stones recall memories of the ancient Sancti Spiritus Hospital and are confronted with the wooden box of the Historic Archive, where the heritage is now preserved.  

相反，在上层，空间组织回忆起房间的历史顺序，木质表面将空间完全包裹起来，从地板到天花板，传达着一种令人惊讶的温暖状态。在这里，一个双枫木皮包住了整个地板，打开了一个同心圆的功能带，由一系列间隙室组成：独立的书房、浴室、办公室和长凳阅览室。

On  the upper  floor, instead,  where the spatial  organization recalls  the historical sequence  of rooms, the wooden surfaces envelope the spaces completely, from  floor to ceiling, conveying a surprising  condition of warmth. Here, a double maple wooden skin envelopes the entire floor, opening  a concentric functional band composed by a series  of interstitial rooms: individual studies, bathrooms, offices  and bench reading rooms.

家具起源于正面。阅览室的规模在家具的情感和家庭条件与拥抱个人和事物的大方舟的宏伟之间摇摆。所采用的内部设计方案有助于使空间均匀，同时，立即可识别。结果环境是图形的和空间的。内部正面被剪掉，剪裁成桌子，它的形状和物质性决定了建筑的规模和家具的规模之间的连续，没有明显的区别。

Furniture Originates from the Facades. The  scale  of the  reading room  oscillates between  the affective and domestic condition  of the furniture  and the grandness of the big ark embracing individuals  and things. The design solution adopted  for the interiors contributes to making spaces homogeneous yet, at the same time, immediately recognizable.  The resulting environment is both graphic and spatial. Inner facades  are cut out and the cut-outs become tables, whose shapes and materiality  define a continuum between the scale of the building and that of the furniture,  without apparent distinction.

Murado & Elvira also designed the way-finding signage and the logo for the Baiona library. The wooden surfaces are cut and engraved with a similar technique  to the one used to extract the furniture directly from the walls. They also designed unique pieces, such  as the lamps for the garden, conceived as curious devices  to be used by both humans and non-humans, with a fountain, a plate for birds to drink water from and a mirror.
