Abstract

HGSD 05 ° 13E 59 ° 23N er et master projekt skrevet af Bodil Udstuen Hovden, med speciale i arkitektur fra Institut for Arkitektur, Design og Mediateknologi, ved Aalborg Universitet. Opgaven er at designe et nyt og bæredygtigt bibliotek til havnebyen Haugesund, beliggende på vestkysten af det sydlige Norge. Byen er en livlig by med cirka 45.000 indbyggere og med en omgivende befolkning på cirka 100.000. Projektet er ikke en del af en konkurrence eller et planlagt projekt, men lavet til denne master opgave. Med det nye biblioteket ønskes der at bringe nyt liv og en ny funktion til byens centrum. Huset skal være en ny social platform og et pulserende hus beliggende ved rådhuspladsen blandt nogle af byens mest markante og vigtigste bygninger såsom Rådhuset og domhuset. Designet skal være funktionelt og skal indeholde alle de funktioner et moderne bibliotek kræver. Biblioteket skal endvidere udformes som et lavenergibyggeri, målet er at holde projektet inden for eller under kravene til en offentlig 2020 bygning. Kravet for energi forbruget ved en offentlig bygning i 2020 kravene, er et maksimalt energiforbrug på 25 kWh pr opvarmede kvadratmeter per år. Det endelige resultat er en bygning som gennem funktionel intuitiv indretning tillader den besøgende at gå på opdagelse op igennem den roterende atriumbaserede midterakse. For til sidst at ende på bygningens grønne tag med udsigt ud over den nærliggende havn og de omkringliggende hustage.

HGSD 05 ° 13E 59 ° 23N is a master project written by Bodil Udstuen Hovden, specializing in architecture from the Department of Architecture, Design and Media Technology at Aalborg University. The task is to design a new and sustainable library to the port city of Haugesund, located on the west coast of southern Norway. The city is a lively city with approximately 45,000 inhabitants and with a surrounding population of approximately 100,000. The project is not part of a competition or a planned project, but made for this master project. The new library is desired to bring new life and a new feature to the city center. The house must be a new social platform and a vibrant house situated at the town hall place among some of the most significant and important buildings such as City Hall and Courthouse. Designed to be functional and must contain all the features a modern library requires. The library must also be designed as a low energy building. The goal is to keep the project within or under the requirements of a 2020 public building. The demand for energy consumption in a public building in the 2020 requirements is a maximum energy consumption of 25 kWh per heated square feet per year. The final result is a building which through functional intuitive layout allows the visitor to explore up through the rotating sodium-based central axis. Finally, to end the building's green roof overlooking the nearby harbor and surrounding rooftops.
