external forces A suburban area in the north of Stockholm.
The design area proposed from the city counsel includes only the empty area between the school and a high-rise apartment building, which is the site of the library in the design proposal.

The design is widened to give a broader solution to this suburban area. It includes now a reconsidering of the position of urban elements like the nature reservoir and the stone park which switched places.

The whole "park" is included and transformed into an area of possible skating and cycling activities, the stone park

A former garage roof will be transformed into a nature reservoir.

Further development of the three surfaces to distinguish inside and outside, light and dark, down and up. The spaces are filled with urban and architectural elements.
The sectional axonometries are extracted from a 3d computer model, who was used as help to visualise the building in it 's surroundings.
The concept model, build in a scale of 1:200, %vas the main tool in finding the form of the building. The model is developed from the earlier 3d computer models. It inhabits the three surfaces, which were translated into three materials: concrete, wood and glass/metal. The concrete is the structuring element and the thinnest construction. The wooden surface provides usable volumes. The glass/metal layer is the protection from the weather and the thickest surface.
The design is characterized by the mainly sectional and not horizontally approach of the building. The plans are drawn for further change of activity. The design inhibits of course a very specific proposal for the functional flow of the library.
