ArchitectureWeek Description
This look at the new library at Utrecht University in the Netherlands, designed by the architect Wiel Arets, takes readers on a floor-by-floor tour as Arets' design embodies the fundamental changes now taking place in library architecture in the information age. Woven throughout are interviews and essays that focus on Arets' inspired design, and other perspectives on library design from renowned architects. Other highlights of the book include an essay, ‘In the Library’, which was commissioned specifically for this book and a series of photographs of international libraries by acclaimed photographer Candida Höfer.
