一百五十公分的閱讀記憶
舊遊客中心一樓新設置動物園兒童圖書館入口意象及側門入口,本案以叢林綠的色彩、如天空朦朧的擴張網和流動的拱形廊道設計讓孩童對弧形洞口產生好奇,進而走入知識的巢穴。
地下一樓為兒童圖書館規劃,對應新竹市動物園整體設計的環型概念及新竹市城區的圓環規劃意象,延伸到舊遊客中心建物的圓形樓梯、圓柱、圓形影廳。室內空間使用各種大小圓形的地板色塊分類出不同主題區域,將孩童喜愛的動態空間變成讀書的環境,圓與圓之間交織的曲線空間作為兒童的閱讀角落,在一百五十公分的空間水平線上,以上為留白以下為木質書牆,館方可在留白區域配合主題活動進行策展,同樣在高度上家長們能夠觀察到兒童的閱讀狀況及活動安全,創造一處孩子們在圓和弧之間的閱讀世界。
呼應動物園環境氛圍,我們錄製收集的動物聲音將播放器藏於天花及鋼柱按鈕上,透過這樣的互動裝置,增加出和大自然中與動物們共讀的場所。

This project is the creation of a new entrance for the children’s library in the Hsinshu Zoo. The jungle green flowing arcade, like a vivid forest, is designed to attract children and enticing them to explore inside.
The site is an underground space of 150㎡ without any natural lighting. Due to long term disrepair there is serious water seepage in the walls, which was a major problem to address in this project. The design is separated into two major parts, an entrance installation of library on the ground floor and a library area in the basement.
