Details
DIA has expanded and modernised the Heilbronn City Library and created an identity-forming place for exchange and intergenerational learning. The overarching aim of the refurbishment was to fulfil today's requirements for knowledge transfer and hybrid usage options through functional zoning and diverse uses. Around 3,500 square metres spread over two floors offer sufficient space for retreats and communal zones, multimedia learning, events as well as office and meeting rooms.
The Jury‘s Statement
The design for the Heilbronn City Library defines the theme of learning and exchange in a modern, friendly and appealing way, taking all generations with it. The combination of communal areas and inviting corners and niches for undisturbed reading makes the library a lively center for communication and knowledge transfer.
