架构师提供的文本描述。作为位于法国中部丘陵火山奥弗涅地区布兰扎特村的一个区域媒体图书馆，该项目需要同时处理两种不同的背景和规模。这就产生了一种在地域和地方尺度上对其建造形式和重要性的“双重解读”。图书馆的大木头、锌和混凝土面板覆盖了整个图书馆，它坐落在一片大草原的边缘，旁边是一片大草原，这为该遗址带来了一个新的更大的机构规模，而它复杂的屋顶球场让人想起了它的瓦片屋顶住宅环境的更为直接和国内的环境。我们开始把它的形象想象成一座有花园的超大房子。

Text description provided by the architects. As a regional media library situated in the village of Blanzat, in the hilly volcanic Auvergne region of central France, the project needed to address two distinct contexts and scales simultaneously. This produced a kind of “double reading” of its built form and materiality at both the territorial and the local scale. Placed at the edge of a large grass prairie flanking the edge of the upper village, the large wood, zinc, and concrete panel-clad mass of the library brings a new and larger institutional scale to the site, while its complex array of roof pitches evokes the more immediate and domestic context of its tile-roofed residential surroundings. We began to think of its iconography as that of an oversized house with garden.

本课题对图书馆传统的组织层次和类型学进行了全面的反思。传统的单一和集中的借阅台已被分割成一个较小的信息和借阅领域分组，相应于各种主题“领域”(小说、青年公众、新闻、文献、多媒体…)。分散在上下层，围绕着一个中庭。家庭生活水平被带到这个机构，在那里，用户可以自由地蜿蜒而行，选择一个适合性格和活动的方向、光的质量和空间的尺度。

The traditional organizational hierarchy and typology of the library is completely re-thought in the project. The conventional singular and centralized lending desk has been fragmented into a smaller grouping of information and lending areas, corresponding to various thematic “territories” (Fiction, Young Public, Press, Documentation, Multimedia…) dispersed throughout the lower and upper floors and oriented around a central skylit atrium. A level of domesticity is brought to the institution, where the user is free to meander, and to choose an orientation, a quality of light, and scale of space that suits both disposition and activity.

数字技术和多媒体技术的兴起，改变了用户与文献的关系，从而改变了当代图书馆光的性质和质量。一方面，我们必须考虑到传统的印刷文本和图像是从字面上“带到光下”的，而另一方面，考虑到越来越大比例的基于屏幕的媒体，它会产生自己的光源(发光二极管，等离子…)。并要求低环境照明水平。媒体图书馆的内部和外部组织反映了这种二元性：光源和水平通过外部木材建筑表皮(未经处理的落叶松)和室内照明进行调节，以创造各种不同的阅读条件和氛围。

The rise of digital technology and multimedia has changed the relation between user and document, and consequently the nature and quality of light in the contemporary library. One must take into account, on one hand, that conventional printed text and image are literally “brought to the light”, while on the other hand taking into account the increasingly larger proportion of screen-based media, which generates its own light source (LED, plasma…) and requires low ambient lighting levels. The internal and external organization of the Media Library reflect this duality: light sources and levels are modulated via the external wood building skin (untreated Larch) and interior lighting in order to create a diverse range of reading conditions and atmospheres.

建筑物的混凝土(下层)和木框架(上层)混合结构是地震因素的结果，也有助于将上层行政区域和崇高的公众咨询空间从更接地、更小的公共空间中分离出来。外部开口既可以过滤，也可以为周围的景观提供框架。

The building’s hybrid structure of concrete (lower level) and wood framing (upper level) was the result of seismic factors, and also serves to detach the upper level of administrative areas and lofty public consultation spaces from the more grounded and smaller-scale public spaces below. External openings serve both to filter and to frame the surrounding landscape.

在项目的早期概念阶段引入了可持续性参数的组合。建筑体积的紧凑性，加上较高的热惯性，并在外墙和屋面加筋保温，减少了传输热损失。立面的结构与建筑物的方向相适应：上层完全是木结构悬臂，位于东侧、南侧和西侧的厚重、倒置的混凝土和玻璃底层之上，在温暖的月份创造了一种抵御直接阳光的天然防护措施；位于东面和西面的垂直层合木横梁保护咨询空间不受横向眩光的影响，同时作为南立面倾斜水平木“砖-鞋底”的支撑。建筑物采用周边窗户自然通风，以及在夏季几个月用于夜间新鲜空气更新和通风的二次机械通风系统。

A combination of sustainability parameters were introduced in the early conceptual phases of the project. The compactness of the built volume, coupled with a high thermal inertia and reinforced insulation in external walls and roof, reduces transmission heat losses. The configuration of the façade adapts to the building’s orientation: the upper floor entirely in wood construction cantilevers beyond the heavy, set-back concrete and glass ground floor on the east, south, and west sides, creating a natural protection from direct sun in the warmer months; the closely-spaced vertical laminated wood beams on the east and west façades protect the consultation spaces from lateral glare, while acting as a support for inclined horizontal wood “brises-soleils” on the south façade. The building is ventilated naturally by means of peripheral windows as well as a secondary mechanical ventilation system used in summer months for nocturnal fresh air renewal and ventilation.
