Welcome to Inspireli Awards, the worldwide competition for students of architecture.
The famous library of Alexandria, Egypt, was one of the most important repositories of knowledge in the ancient world. Built in the fourth century B.C., it flourished for some six centuries, was the cultural and intellectual center of the ancient Hellenistic world, and was rumored to contain half a million papyrus scrolls — the largest collection of manuscripts in the ancient world — including works by Plato, Aristotle, Homer, Herodotus and many others. Some of the most brilliant minds of the period worked, studied and taught at the library. By the fifth century A.D., however, the library had essentially ceased to exist. With many of its collections stolen, destroyed or simply allowed to fall into disrepair, the library no longer wielded the influence it once had. The story of the Alexandrian Library's rise and demise is still being fleshed out through scholarship and archaeology. But what we do know of this tale is as complex and dramatic as any Hollywood movie.
The new Knowledge and Cultural Centre is located in the historic town centre in Kongsberg, housing a variety of functions including the campus of the University College of Southeast Norway/HSN, vocational college Tinius Olson, public library, theatre, cinemas, municipal offices and youth centre.
Mecanoo’s design for an open and flexible cultural centre connects closely with the cultural life of Kongsberg. While the different functions are organised in blocks to fulfil each user’s needs, they intersect to stimulate interaction between the various organisations.
Shared functions are placed at the heart of the building, among them the public library that connects the church square with the park 12 metres below. Continuing the pavement surface from outside to inside underlines this new public route. On the park side, an amphitheatre in the grass with dress circle seating accommodates open-air performances.
Variations in landscape levels separate the different streams of visitors at the various entrances. The facade of vertical, rough timber fins references the local architecture and contrasts with the warm, light interior of mostly timber and concrete. Subtle silver accents reflect the daylight.
The entire complex can be flexibly used. After university hours, the canteen transforms into a lively cafe, the public library doubles as the theatre foyer, and the art gallery becomes a bar during film screenings.
Lectures, screenings, council meetings, dance performances, concerts and dinners take place in the central theatres. The main 600-seat auditorium is equipped with flexible walls and a mechanically adjustable chair system that facilitates every possible seating configuration.

People/Products Experimentation with forms, materials, and means of sustainability has been a constant throughout Renzo Piano’s career. For the Stavros Niarchos Foundation Cultural Center (SNFCC) in Athens, he pushed the envelope of all three, and the result is a stunning hilltop complex that includes an opera house, a new home for the National Library of Greece, and a 42-acre park. The building is composed of two large volumes, separated by a spacious open-air agora, that sit on a structure of reinforced concrete with some steel . . .
