This is the most intresting Library design I’ve ever seen! I’m in grade twelve and I’m designing a library for my drafting class. Thus, I’ve been looking at a lot of designs, but this is the only one that looks like it wasn’t just designed for books, but for people as well. It doesn’t take drugs to think this up, just an imagination.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA – best laugh I’ve had all day. Having said that, I wouldn’t really call it ugly,just unusual… i wonder how functional it will be. The National Library – hmm has anyone checked for pods in Prague?

[...] 如此造型的圖書館當然引起了許多的討論，librarian.net 那裡就有很多人留言，其中還有人認為看到這個造型時，就立即聯想到天線寶寶 (teletubbies)，相當有趣 [...]

My first thought was of those alien creatures from the 1953 film adaptation of “War of the Worlds”: http://www.war-ofthe-worlds.co.uk/gall_f14.htm.

Decline of Western civilization? Come on!
(One qustion: is Czech Republic still considered Eastern or already Western civ?)

But anyway:
I like that building for its unusual sight. Where would our civil. be if we would only always build the same old stuff? And I know enough libraries that are build in the common (that means for me: postwar European ugliness) style that are very unfunctional for the staff.

“Like it or not, the Seattle Public Library did just that (generate interest) and is a destination landmark for people visiting the city.”

Maybe so, but from what I’ve heard and read about it so far, it’s not functional for the people who actually have to use it. Form and function go together and can’t be separated.

Wow! I'd never thought about doing research/reading a book inside Kang and/or Kodos before! Interesting!

Looks like a giant sneeze! Wow! Just one more reason to say no to drugs! That has got to be one of the ugliest building plans EVER!
