旧金山是加利福尼亚州的第四大城市，人口约86万人，分布面积达121平方公里。它位于美国西海岸旧金山半岛的北端，西接太平洋，南接大陆。

旧金山是美国最重要的城市之一，也是加利福尼亚州著名的文化、科技和金融中心，是生物技术和生物医学研究的前沿发展地，互联网革命带来的机遇持续吸引着全国人民。这座城市每年吸引着1600多万游客前往。它的音乐、电影和各种纪念碑在世界上都有一定的知名度。

1849年，在加利福尼亚淘金热时期，当时名叫耶尔布埃纳（Yerba Buena）的小型交易站成为世界各地成千上万名猎头运输船的入境口岸。仅一年时间，这里的人口从400人增加到25000人。这里的商机是如此诱人，许多人来到这里进行淘金，因此在旧金山港口留下了许多废弃船只。由于采矿活动，泥土和沙砾被倾倒入海湾，以被动填海的方式不断地扩大着城市边界。

随着第二次世界大战的爆发，旧金山港口几乎成为所有码头的军事后勤中心，舰船和部队以及军舰停靠在Embarcadero一带。战后，由于海湾大桥的建设，同时随着集装箱船只的发展，奥克兰港口（Port of Oakland）也承载着商业运输功能。而那些废弃的码头则主要用于货物存储。

今天，旧金山的东北海岸已经重新规划焕然一新，步道两侧种有棕榈树，人们可以在这里悠闲地散步。而码头已经充斥着诸多餐馆、写字楼和商业场所。接下来，这里还将为居民和游客建造博物馆、游轮码头等服务设施和景点。


目的

本次比赛面向建筑学子与新兴建筑师，旧金山海湾图书馆（Bay Book House ——BaBH）包含有文化交流的空间，能够为旧金山历史港口的码头注入活力。

由于地理位置优越，主办方建议将建筑空间设计为学生和研究人员以及文化知识爱好者的国际交流空间、咨询平台、露天阅读或技术创新空间，以吸引居民或游客。

BaBH渴望突破传统图书馆的禁锢，成为未来的新式图书馆，设计中应当充分思考我们如何理解、使用和享受这种知识源泉?建筑是否适合当今世界?，以及建筑文化如何成为独特的感官体验？

在这个充满世界各地标志性图像的城市，这个全新的空间应该成为旧金山的文化代表，也是划时代的新符号。

San Francisco is the fourth largest city in the State of California, with a population of around 860,000 distributed over 121 km2. It is located on the West Coast of the United States, on the north end of the San Francisco peninsula, with the Pacific Ocean to the west and connected to the mainland to the south.
San Francisco is one of the most important cities of the United States, one of the most well-known cultural, technological and financial centres of California, at the leading edge of research in biotechnology and biomedicine, where the opportunities generated by the internet revolution continue to attract residents and skilled workers with high salaries. It also welcomes more than 16 million tourists a year, drawn by the iconic image of the city. Its music, cinema and monuments are recognized around the world.
It was in 1849, during the California Gold Rush, when the small trading post known as Yerba Buena became the incoming port for numerous ships transporting thousands of fortune hunters from all over the world. The population grew from 400 to 25,000 residents in just one year. The promise of great fortunes was so tempting that the crews of the arriving ships deserted them and hurried to the gold fields, leaving the Port of San Francisco filled with ghost ships. Mud and gravel was dumped into the bay due to mining activity, extending the boundaries of San Francisco 10 blocks out from its natural border.
With the outbreak of World War II, the port became a military logistics centre involving nearly all the piers, with ships and troops and warships docked all along the Embarcadero. After the war and the arrival of container ships, commercial traffic moved to the Port of Oakland, thanks also to the construction of the Bay Bridge. The piers fell into disuse and were relegated to storage or abandoned.
Today, the north-eastern shore of San Francisco has been reborn as a walking path flanked by palm trees and with a trolley, where numerous piers have been transformed into restaurants, office buildings and commercial areas. There are plans to build a museum, a cruise ship terminal and other services and attractions for residents and visitors.

OBJECTIVE
The objective of this competition for students of architecture and young architects, Bay Book House (BaBH) San Francisco, consists in proposing a space for cultural exchange that will activate one or several of the unused piers of the historic Port of San Francisco.
Thanks to its privileged location, the proposed space will seek to become an international  meeting point for students and researchers, as well as for lovers of culture and general knowledge, where consultation, open-air reading or technological innovation will attract inhabitants or visitors.
The BaBH aspires to be the future of traditional libraries, an evolution in the how we understand, use and enjoy this source of knowledge, a museum of (not) books adapted to today’s world, and where culture becomes a unique sensory experience.
In a city filled with iconic images known around the world, this new space should become the new cultural reference of San Francisco, the flagship of the strong shoreline that is currently flowering.
