Form finding The building is conceived with a form finding using folded paper. Through the surfaces in torsion, the space works similarly to landscapes and can produce unexpected spaces. Simultaneously, this logic informs us of the landscape, and creates places for activity.

Junction Activities will be developed in the various patterns of junctions created by stacking pieces on top of each other. The pathways connected to each zone generated by the junctions will, in turn, generate activities and scenes in the building.

Site Analysis and Context

New Library in Varna, Bulgaria The site is located in Varna, Bulgaria. The new building of Varna Regional Library will be the first library to be built in Bulgaria for the last 30 years. This project aims that the future building should demonstrate contemporary attitude to books and have one major message. A solution is yet to be found for a long-standing problem of the city of Varna which has been without proper building of its library for years. The Library of Varna is a 130 year old institution, but presently its collection of over 860 000 library items is spread in 6 different buildings throughout the city. The new building aims to collect the library under one roof, to ensure its comfortable and smooth working process and at the same time to create a new and active public space in the centre of Varna.

Context Municipality Hall Archaeological Park

"P.r ofessor Marin Drinov” Street

Site "Osmi Primorski Polk “ Boulevard

“Bratya Miladinovi” Street

The competition area is locked between „Osmi Primorski Polk “ Boulevard, “Bratya Miladinovi” , “Professor Marin Drinov” streets, and the Municipality Hall of Varna (the former city headquarters of the Bulgarian Communist Party). The main spatial landmark in the area is the Municipality Hall of Varna, which was completed in 1984. With its 17 floors, well developed surrounding space, commanding silhouette and singular materials (visible structural concrete, stone tiling, anodized aluminum windows) it dominates perception in the surrounding vicinity. Presently, the competition area is covered with lush greenery, and combines the functions of a park with those of an open-air parking lot for the needs of the Municipality Hall.

The longest sun-hours in Varna occur in July and August, with 331 and 313 hours respectively. The climate in the city’ s surroundings is suitable for the cultivation of Mediterranean vegetation. Varna is very appropriate for balneotherapy.

DEC

The predominant winds during the winter are from the northwest and north, and during the summer, from the northwest, east and northeast. The city’ s proximity to the sea creates a convergence zone, also called a sea breeze front. During the day, cooler air from the sea blows to up to 30-40 km inland, whereas during the night, a reversal of the same process is observed.

VARNA

Green Spaces Connecting with the green spaces, the development is equal to creating a network of green spaces, offering an affable asset to the city and people. The places and its experience sets a tempo for the growth and life of a city which in turn affects the city, Varna.

Curvature Analysis and Adaptation The continuous structure divides private spaces and open spaces. This generates the new relationship between private and public use. The deflection creates the scene and peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; s activities in the library.
