卡恩的功能附加设计开始于该建筑的承重壳厚墙，允许在内部有很大的开放空间，并补充PupillensSchool的历史砖墙外观。中央中庭周围聚集着小团体空间和私人阅览室，里面有书架和宽敞的阅读区。这座建筑遵循了最近图书馆设计的趋势，它是一个开放和方便的地方，供人们在其主要功能中工作，同时也是书籍的家园。

The design of KAAN’s functional addition starts with the building’s load-bearing shell – thick walls that allow for large open spaces on the interior and complement the Pupillenschool’s historic brick facade. Small group spaces and private reading rooms cluster around the central atrium, which houses bookshelves and spacious reading areas. The building takes direction from recent trends in library design, serving as an open and accessible place for people to work in its primary function, while also being a home for books.

新加入的关系，与旧学校的启发，由不规则的街道网格的历史中心的Aalst。在市中心的某些地方，街道不稳定地聚集在一起，形成了小的公共广场，可以容纳街道咖啡馆́和会议场所。同样，图书馆与现有的建筑相交，创建了两个小广场，一个作为建筑群的入口区域，另一个作为露台，容纳一个阅读咖啡厅(́)。

The addition’s relationship to the old school was inspired by the irregular street grid of the historic center of Aalst. At certain points in the downtown, streets converge erratically, creating small public squares that hold street cafés and meeting places. Likewise, the library intersects with the existing building to create two small plazas, one serving as the entrance area for the complex and the other as a terrace housing a reading café.

在大楼的另一边，表演艺术学院将设有教室和剧院，供音乐、舞蹈、戏剧和歌唱之用。这座建筑将在运动和噪音、沉默和反思之间取得平衡，卡恩相信这将为建筑群创造更大的社区感。

On the other side of the building, the Academy for Performing Arts will contain classrooms and a theater for music, dance, drama and singing. The building will be balanced between areas of movement and noise, and silence and reflection, which KAAN believes will create a greater sense of community to the complex.

在整个增建过程中，窗户和天窗被设计成为阅读区域提供最佳光线，并在夜间发出光线，这与为整个城市中心设计的更大照明计划相对应。窗户还将提供对城市和重要的历史版画贴在墙上的城市的策略性景观。室内表面将以木材覆盖为主，增加了开放空间的温暖和亲密程度，与冷灰色地板和天花板形成了鲜明对比。

Throughout the addition, windows and skylights have been designed to provide optimal light to reading areas and to radiate light out at night, corresponding to a greater illumination plan devised for the whole of the city center. Windows will also provide curated views of the city and to important historic prints affixed to the walls. The interior surfaces will be dominated by wood cladding, increasing the the warmth and intimacy of the open spaces and contrasting with the cool grey floors and ceiling panels.

这座建筑定于2018年完工。

The building is scheduled to be completed in 2018.
