The Enric Miralles Library in Palafolls: some books and a dream
Abstract
The architecture of the Enric Miralles Library in Palafolls was observed and analysed, in order to reflect on the form that libraries should take today. The work of the architects Miralles and Tagliabue seems to illustrate that libraries are essentially places for emotion, in which dreams can be formed through reading. New ways of accessing knowledge and creativity have emerged in the network society. As a result, the form of library buildings could have an uncertain future. However, this form must always be consistent with the intrinsic nature of the new processes and associated with freedom in the architectural designs, in which established ideas and traditional formal models should be set aside.
