架构师提供的文本描述。公共图书馆是公共-私人倡议的一部分，该倡议是在2010年摧毁该镇的8.8度地震和海啸之后重建康苏西翁市的举措的一部分。这是一个小定居点，位于智利最大的木材生产集群之一的核心地带。这种情况赋予了城镇的身份，也创造了最好的条件，不仅要找到高质量的木材材料，也是极有天赋的木匠精心制作木结构。

Text description provided by the architects. The Public Library is part of a public-private initiative taken to rebuild the city of Constitución after the 8.8 degrees earthquake and tsunami that devastated the town during the year 2010. It is a small settlement situated in the very core of one of the biggest clusters of wood production in Chile. This situation gives identity to the town and also creates the best conditions to find not only high quality wood materials but also extremely well gifted carpenters to carefully craft a wooden building.

关于项目的正规化，这是三个主要决定的结果。第一：为了俯瞰遗址前面的市立广场的千周年树，将图书馆升到街道的1，6米以上。第二：以过滤和平衡光线为目的；以3根网状木脐覆盖方案的三个主要领域(儿童、青年和成人读者)；第三：考虑传达建筑物的公共特性；用三个巨大的玻璃盒子来组织门面，不仅邀请人们去看新书的到来，而且-还有长椅和檐篷-为过路人提供庇护。

With regard to the formalization of the project; it is the result of three main decisions. Firstly: In order to overlook the millenary trees of the civic square that is in front of the site; to rise the library 1,6 meters over street level. Secondly: With the purpose to filter and balance the light; to cover the 3 main areas of the programme (children, young and adult readers) with 3 reticulated wood naves and Thirdly: In consideration to communicate the public character of the edifice; to organize the façade with 3 monumental glass cases that not only invites to see new books arrivals but also -with its benches and canopies - offer shelter to the passerby.

关于这座建筑的建造，它几乎完全是用木头做的，只有防火墙是用外露的浇筑混凝土做的。该结构是预制的，是由叠层松木制成的。为了使室内空间具有节奏感，并使荷载和施工过程易于理解，尽可能地将木梁保持为一根柱子。

Regarding the construction of the building; it is made almost entirely in wood and only the firewalls are done with exposed poured concrete. The structure is prefabricated and is made out of laminated pine. In order to rhythm the interior space and to make the loads and the construction process understandable, the wood beams an pillars are kept as visible as possible.

在木材上涂上水白色的清漆，提高了空间所需的亮度，也创造了结构和现场建造的家具之间的同质性。在织物上可以看到的其他颜色被选择来模仿树木和方叶的颜色。

Coating the wood with water white varnish enhances the required luminosity of the spaces and also creates homogeneity between the structure and the on site built furniture. The other colors that can be seen in fabrics were chosen to mimic the colours of the trees and leaves of the square.

从这个意义上说，图书馆可以看作是一个共鸣的盒子。

In this sense the library can be seen as a resonance box.
