Graduate Programme,
This semester we will be designing a new library for the University of Arts in Belgrade. The challenge will be to perceive the ongoing change of contemporary institutions and develop understanding of the design methodology beyond subordination to typological classification in architecture. Historically, the purpose of libraries is to collect, archive and disseminate information but with the advance of digital media, such role has shifted toward the specific provision of access to knowledge via physical space that is shared by many users. Curatorship of the library’s content is what makes it unique. Relationship between the user and the book is central to the design strategy. New libraries in Musashino and Dalarna both have spiral configurations of archives with communal spaces positioned interstitially to them. Seattle library, on the other hand, has loosely arranged public zones attached to programatically defined volumes. Public space in libraries has double purpose. Firstly it needs to facilities interaction and communication between its users and secondly it needs to provide for private and quiet working areas. Perception and way finding are based on the narrative structure of space. According to the design intent this may be sequential aggregate of rooms or seamless structure as in Jussieu library, where floor slabs are connected into the landscape-like formation to foster one continuous circulation route throughout the building. We will start with the analysis of similar projects and discussions about relevant conceptions. From there we will use this comprehension to formulate specific design strategies for the University of Arts Library with the contextual reference to location at Kosancicev venac in Belgrade.

U ovom semestru bavićemo se projektovanjem biblioteke Univerziteta umetnosti u Beogradu. Izazov leži u razumevanju promena na koje nailaze savremene institucije i razvijanju istraživačkih i projektantskih sposobnosti koje prevazilaze primenu tipoloških klasifikacija u arhitekturi. Kao i ranije, biblioteke i danas imaju ulogu u prikupljanju, čuvanju i širenju informacija, međutim uz razvoj elektronskih medija njihova svrha se bitno menja i sada prvenstveno podrazumeva pristup znanju u fizičkom i zajedničkom prostoru. Način predstavljanja arhive jedne biblioteke ima presudan značaj za njenu vitalnost. Odnos između korisnika i knjige postaje centralno pitanje u koncepciji ovakvih prostora. Nove biblioteke u Musashinu i Dalarni imaju spiralne konfiguracije arhivskih polica između kojih se nalazi zajednički prostor. Biblioteka u Sjetlu, pored programski definisanih prostorija sadrži višenamenske i fleksibilno organizovane zone namenjene za socijalizaciju. Karakter takvih prostorija istovremeno treba da omogući dva scenarija. Prvi je susret i komunikacija među korisnicima, a drugi je izdvajanje u mirnije prostorne podceline za individualni rad. Percepcija i orijentacija se temelje na narativnoj strukturi prostora, koja je odraz određene arhitektonske strategije i može činiti niz razdvojenih prostornih sekvenci ili jednu celovitu strukturu kao u slučaju biblioteke Jussieu u Parizu čije etaže su povezane tako da čine prostornu konfiguraciju koja je nalik na otvoreni pejzaž kroz koji se proteže kontinulana putanja kretanja. Rad na projektu ćemo početi sa analizom ovakvih primera i diskusijama o primenjenim projektantskim strategijama. Ovo znanje ćemo zatim upotrebiti za formulaciju sopstvenih ideja i ciljeva za programski okvir biblioteke Univerziteta umetnosti, i kontekstualni okvir lokacije na Kosančićevom vencu u Beogradu.
