the human brain inspires bollingen's labyrinthine design for songdo library in south korea

brooklyn-based architecture studio, bollingen, presents its brain-inspired concept for songdo library in south korea. designed in response to an international competition organized by korea institute of architects, the proposal envisions an artificial ‘brain’ that both physically guides and subconsciously communicates with users.

 

 

브루클린 소재 볼링겐 건축 스튜디오 디자인

 

   브루클린 소재 건축 스튜디오 볼링겐은 한국건축학회가 주관하는 국제대회에 맞춰 디자인한 송도도서관의 뇌에 영감을 받은 콘셉트를 선보였다.

 

 

볼링겐은 정보기술의 혁명시대에 공공도서관의 새로운 유형을 창조하려고 한다. 최종 디자인은 인간과 우주 사이에 구조적인 유사성이 있고 인간의 두뇌의 형태와 기능에 의해 영감을 받는 미시적 우주적 유추에 주목한다. 

 

도서관은 '뇌'로서 앱과 장치로 정보와 지식을 찾을 수 있도록 안내할 뿐만 아니라 다양한 건축언어를 통해 무의식적으로 사람들과 소통하며 마음속에 숨겨진 보물을 발견하는 데 도움을 준다.

 

이 살아있는 두뇌 구조를 만들기 위해 볼링겐은 나무의 고대 지혜와 영적인 힘을 재해석한다. 나무가 한때 고대 공동체에서 연결고리와 진실의 원천이었던 것처럼, 나무는 건축 전반에 걸쳐 연결점으로 이 제안에서 사용된다. 게다가, 나무들은 종종 두뇌에 유용한 비유로 사용된다. 왜냐하면 둘다 모두 많은 필요한 부분들로 구성되어 있기 때문이다.

bollingen seeks to create a new typology of public library in the revolutionary era of information technology. the final design looks to the microcosm-macrocosm analogy, which is the idea that there is a structural similarity between humankind and the cosmos, and is inspired by the form and the function of the human brain. as a ‘brain’, the library not only guides people to find information and knowledge by apps and devices, but subconsciously communicates with people through various architectural languages, helping them discover the hidden treasures in their mind.

 

to create this living brain architecture, bollingen reinterprets the ancient wisdom and spiritual power of trees. just as trees were once a connector and source of truth in ancient communities, trees are used in this proposal as connective points throughout the architecture. additionally, trees are often used as a useful analogy for the brain as both are made up of many necessary parts. 

 

following the trees, the next element of the proposal is ‘booktonic’ — an invented combination of ‘book’ and ‘tectonic’. books (in bookcases) and knowledge do not exist separately from the building, but rather become the construction material stacked and merged into a magical, living architecture, like something from a fantasy film or novel. so, the booktonic, walls made by memories and information, are used as the symbol of the brain, infinite storage of time and knowledge in both consciousness and sub-consciousness.

 

the third element of the design translates a labyrinth into the cortex of the brain, as both are complex and places to attain knowledge. just like the twists and turns of a labyrinth, bollingen has planned a complex arrangement of walls in the librray to make people lose their way, start their adventure, and then with the support of library AI, find their treasure.

 

finally, after the trees, ‘booktonic’ and labyrinth, the design team has inserted a library network like the brain’s networks of neurons. a network of sensors and communication devices connect various data to a central AI, which monitors and communicates with people to create a truly intelligent building that optimizes the public’s experience of songo library.
