架构师提供的文本描述。图书馆位于西北面两个海湾，西北面的露台上。它是为安放安东尼奥·卡斯特罗·列尔的个人图书馆而设计的，它被投影成一个透明的区域，壁上的书架都贴满了高度，深色木材中的这些垂直元素与轻型木材和半透明玻璃中的水平平面(地板)形成了对比，白色家具也是如此。尽管有开阔的空间，人们还是可以区分四个不同的区域：接待区、团队合作区、个人阅读区和研究区。每个组件的模块化解决方案都是根据原建筑加泰罗尼亚天花板上的结构金属梁的放置而设计的，而走廊则通过轻而薄的不锈钢圆圈悬挂在这些元素上。在方向和末端的变化中，栏杆是连续的和铰接的。每个书架面板在其边缘有一个连续的利兹乐队，照亮每本书，他们似乎在空间振动。简单和模块化的书柜补充了铁栏杆和专门为这一空间设计的桌椅的特殊细节。从工业设计到建筑，一个完整的解决方案以卡斯特罗·列尔在他在Coyoacan的家中的个人图书馆为参考。其结果是一个容易理解的视觉理解和对游客的家喻户晓。

Text description provided by the architects. The library located in two bays at the north side of the north-west patio at the Ciudadela. It was created to place the Antonio Castro Leal’s personal library, it was projected a transparent area in which the bookcases are attached on the walls to full height, these vertical elements in dark wood make the contrast with horizontal planes (floors) in light wood and translucent glass, so too the furniture in white. Despite the open space, one can distinguish four different areas: the reception, the teamwork area, personal reading area and the research area.  The modular solution for each component responds to the placement of structural metal beams on the Catalan ceiling of the original building and the hallways are suspended from these elements by a light and thin stainless steel rounds. The railings are continuous and articulated in the changes of direction and ends. Each bookcase panel has on its edge a continuous band from leeds that illuminates each book and they seem as vibrate in space. The simple and modular bookcases complemented with especial details of ironwork railings and the tables and chairs designed specifically for this space. An integral solution from industrial design to architecture took as reference the Castro Leal's personal library at his home at Coyoacan. The result is an easily visual comprehension and homely to visitors.
