Andrée Chedid 媒体图书馆位于法国图尔宽市Belencontre街区的核心，作为大型住宅和商业中心旁的一个新公共设施而存在。该建筑担负了街区形
象改造的使命，在现代的今天十分积极的拥抱了当地过去工业历史与文化，并贴近生活，成为一个具有冒险精神同时也极富影响力的文化雕塑式建
筑。最终让街区面貌焕然一新。
Sublimate the Potential
Composed mainly of large housing and commercial centers, the construction of a new public facility in the heart of the Belencontre neighborhood
in Tourcoing had to create an architectural event, structuring for the sector, and adding value for the population.
In this daring project, the industrial roots embrace the modern world to offer the gaze a coherent entity, unfolding as a mineral sculpture in
motion, playing with the relief and the volumes, using the past in order to better orient our gaze to the future.
The Architecture, Subject to Transformation
« We have the opportunity to participate in the transformation of a neighborhood, to be part of a process that is changing this neighborhood’s
image, to create a bridge between a rich industrial past and a strong cultural calling. In this spirit, the Andrée Chedid media library construction
project that was assigned to us could not just be a temple of culture that would be escaping people. We envisioned the building as a shared
sculptural creation, fully participating in the installation of the cultural identity of the neighborhood, and more broadly, of the city. "
What we want to do with architecture is a layout that is pretty close to what we would do with our life. The great adventures, as they say, may
not have as surroundings and origins but the beautiful neighborhoods. The concept of beautiful neighborhoods will change.
新的媒体图书馆从原有的历史纺织厂建筑中扩建出来，可看做三个体量，面积共达900平方米。屋顶起伏的折面与六角形开孔墙面构造允许更多的
光线进入建筑。整个新扩建的建筑体量像有机晶体矿物，这种现代整体的造型与传统碰撞出火花，提升场所品质并展望未来。建筑师认为他们的设
计与周围的地形和历史保持了完美的和谐，极具未来感的建筑插入城市历史区域，成为联系不断变化的世界的一个楔子。
Project Principle
The building will be developed over a surface area of 900 m2 and will consist of two parts, an old part - the Tiberghien textile factory’s concierge
service along with its surrounding wall - and an extension that will lean on these historic elements.
The new building, leaning against the surrounding renovated wall to the west, and against the old concierge service to the north-east, will consist
of three volumes, where the roofs, treated as a continuous surface, will ripple to bring the natural light needed for the different spaces nestled in
the heart of the media library.
The eastern and western walls will form a set of perforated structures, opening the view to the outside while protecting it from the passer-by’s
looks. The attention will be paid to the entrance’s treatment that will be done in an instinctive and evident way, through the concierge service,
preserved yet carved, sliced and widely opened onto the courtyard. The ground floor will host the public, since the first floor is reserved for the
media library internal services.
Like a Mineral Sculpture
From an industrial past that is still very present in the collective memory - the old Tiberghien spinning - arise three white wings from the media
library. Their structures, similar to an organic matter, match the ground shape, spread out, climb and impose to the passers-by view, as if to catch
both their eye and the light. The contrast between the two successive vocations of the place is deliberately highly marked by a double architecture,
contemporary and traditional, leaning on each others, coming together and handing over to each others. This building, resolutely looking to the
future, solicits by its remarkable elevations, closed from the north and the south, opened in mesh from the east and the west, providing an "inside
out" form suggesting the impalpable link between the inner and outer life.
Architects’ Note
We have designed this project in perfect harmony with the neighborhood’s history and topography. A building inserted in the heart of the
landscape, a landscape construction, a mineral wave in the heart of the nearby future “Jardin des Lettres” (“Letters’ Garden”). The media library
is not only an enclave in the middle of an ever changing world, but also a place to live connected to the city, which its outer court and bleachers
will extend inside the auditorium”.
建筑师在六边形窗洞上运用了不同色彩的玻璃呼应景观和室内，并在开放的内部空间中，通过定制化家具、锯齿花纹地毯、六角形印花玻璃隔断、
墙面纹理等等要素，让室内风格与建筑语言保持高度一致。经起伏屋顶进入室内的光线被精心控制，恰当的出现各个区域。建筑师努力将建筑打造
成为由内而外的统一体，内部空间独特且具有人尺度。礼堂的外部造型能够清晰的反映出内部的阶梯结构。
Through its central location in the "Inhabited Park" and the graphic treatment of the honeycomb facades evoking an extensible organic stained
glass, the media library converses with the surrounding landscape: the “Jardin de Lettres” ("Letters’ Garden") to the west, the “Place des Jets”
("Jets’ Place") to the east, the new “Fin de la Guerre” (End of War) avenue to the north and the Belencontre district that develops towards the
south.
In this open and liberated space, the furniture has been custom designed to fully participate in the identification of areas for the sake of the
architectural consistency. Predominance of white and wood for adults, colors for the younger ones.
The light participates in the interior especially with the cells that allow a precise and directed input on selected areas: the children’s corner, the
reading corner space ... At the heart of the media library space, it is through the roof undulations that the light penetrates.
The synthetic flooring consists of carpet tiles: a carpet made of free-form tiles which allows great flexibility in patterns creation, and breaks with
the rigid structure usually proposed. The interlinked parts generate non repetitive graphics, specific to different areas, and form a visual echo to
the organic structure of the media library.
Architects’ Notes
"Through the flooring coverings, and like the laid carpets, we seek the sensation to develop through the spaces like in a natural landscape, a
surprising combination that sometimes participates in the poetry of the place."
The graphic honeycomb facades evoke from the outside a hive of knowledge. From the inside of the media library, the facades’ structure offers an
interpretation that would divide the city’s reality into pixels. It is a unique place, a traversing volume where the changes in the ceiling’s height
prioritize, creating the spaces’ intimacy.
The constraint of the field’s difference in levels has been bypassed to give birth to a terraced room welcoming the spectacles and projections. From
the outside, the fender that shelters it and develops on the court reinforces the idea of a set where the environment and buildings are set up.
建筑高精度的有机形体木材墙体通过三维设计实现。建筑师考虑了金属，混凝土，复合材料等选项后最终选择了木材，因为木材具有良好的机械承
受力，同时组装简单，构造轻盈。得益于计算机的发展，整个设计变得可行。最后在墙面上使用了3120块木材单元，在屋顶上使用了2134块木材
单元。
