Riverside Main Library / Johnson Favaro

由专筑网小R编译

这座全新的图书馆位于Mission Inn大道市场大街的东侧，场地面积为2.5英亩，距离Mission Inn和城市文化商业区步行可达，图书馆的二层体量坐落在36英尺高的巨大混凝土墙墩上，构成了一个面积大约为8900平方英尺的室外公共广场，因此也构成了入口，全新的广场能够举办各种夜间活动、每周的农贸集市、书画展览等社区活动，除此之外，一座全新的档案馆、社区中心，以及图书馆书店之家也位于周边。

The new library sits on a city-owned 2½ acre property, east of Market Street on Mission Inn Avenue, within walking distance of the Mission Inn and the city’s cultural and business district. The two-floor library volume sits 36 feet in the air on massive concrete piers, creating an 8,900-square-foot shaded outdoor public plaza as the entrance to the phase two paseo. The new covered plaza will host evening performances, weekly farmers markets, book fairs, and other community events. A new City Archive, Community Room, and Friends of the Library Bookstore are at street level at the perimeter of the plaza.





使用者在这座抬高的图书馆中能够看到北侧的San Gabriel山和San Bernardino山，也许大多数的人们并没有在高层建筑中生活或者工作过，那么他们就无法享受这样的美景，三层35英尺高的体量覆盖着巨大的拱顶，这个拱顶平行于巨型南北向窗户。

The elevated library provides views of the San Gabriel and San Bernardino mountains to the north. It is a view that most residents don’t have if they do not have the good fortune to live or work in a high-rise. The third-floor 35-foot-high volume is covered from end to end in a sweeping vault that roughly parallels the enormous north and south-facing windows.









成人阅览室和藏书区域位于四层，在这里可以拥有南北通透的视野，在视觉上也与三层图书馆的入口部分相连接，这个楼层包含有当地历史阅览室，这里有着河滨城市1903年Carnegie图书馆的各种家具，除此之外这里还有几个通过玻璃围合而成的自习室和服务于滨河市整个图书馆系统的行政办公室。

The adult reading room and collection areas are on the fourth floor, with views north and south, and are visually linked to the third-floor library entrance floor. This floor includes the local history reading room that contains furnishings from Riverside’s 1903 Carnegie Library, several glass-enclosed group study rooms as well as administrative offices for the City of Riverside’s entire library system.



儿童图书馆是通向巨大世界的入口，在这里，孩子们能够永远充满好奇心，这里有着色彩明艳的天花板和墙体的装饰以及灯光配置，这让人联想起游乐场的摩天轮和旋转木马，所有的故事、歌声、游乐、艺术，以及手工艺都发生于此。

A children’s library is an entrance to a vast world, through books and programming, where children are encouraged to be creative and curious. It starts with the decoration of the ceiling and wall surfaces with saturated color, and the configuration of lighting, reminiscent of Ferris wheels or carousel lighting at the fairground. Storytime, sing-alongs, play, arts, and crafts, all take place below this canopy of lights.





环绕着建筑机械系统的混凝土墙墩支撑着111英尺的跨度，构成了面积约为8900平方英尺的遮阳广场，河滨城市的夏季温度一般都会超过100华氏度（约37.7摄氏度），在白天，这个广场用于农业市场、视频卡车、书画展览等社区活动，到了夜晚，这里便是室外剧场和活动空间，同时也是周边社区的功能区域。

Concrete piers, that enclose the building’s mechanical systems, support the 111-foot span that creates the 8,900 SF shaded plaza. Summer temperatures in Riverside often reach over 100 degrees. By day, this plaza is used for farmer’s markets, food trucks, book fairs, and other community events. By night, it is an outdoor theater and event space and serves as pre-and post-function space for the adjoining Community Meeting Room.



图书馆的入口连接着广场中央旁侧的玻璃与镜面电梯，随着图书馆广场开发的完成，这个广场将会成为连接Mission Inn大道与大学大道的北侧入口。

The entrance to the library is by way of glass and mirror-walled elevator near the center of the plaza. The plaza will be the eventual north entrance to the shaded paseo that will connect Mission Inn Avenue and University Avenue with the completion of the Library Square development that has been planned for the block-sized property.
