Wall belt - National library

Bc. Veronika Trčková

Annotation

The new building of the National Library. A house - a bridge. A city within a city. An omnidirectional intersection. An oasis in the middle of the city. We are returning to the city its rhythm, which has been silenced for years by the main road. We are taking back what belongs to us. A city for people, not for transit. We are turning columns into tree trunks. We are creating a boulevard. We are placing public buildings like stones in the flow of people. The National Library is not just another building. It is a gesture. Its shape resembles an embrace. It frames the panorama of Prague. Inside - a place of peace, reading, contemplation. A green oasis in the middle of the city bustle. It is an all-round open gate for knowledge. It is a house that belongs to everyone.
