The new 8,386 sqm Byblos Library and Central Administration complex will be the new focus of the LAU Byblos campus. Atelier Pagnamenta Torriani (Atelier PT) researched the history, local culture and typology of this ancient city and weaved the findings in the conceptual design. Byblos is at the root of the Latin word Bibliotheca, or library, and is where the Phoenician alphabet originated. The exposed metamorphic rock at the site reflects the historic stratification of the ancient city of Byblos and became a catalyst for the design. The new buildings, like fragments from the excavated mountain, are juxtaposed and the resulting interstitial space forms a sunken amphitheater with the exposed sedimentary rock as the backstage. The double skin design, inspired by the local Riwaaq, or arcade, is interpreted with a curtain wall and a perforated skin along the western/southern exposures. A pattern based on the ancient Phoenician alphabet will highlight Byblos’s cultural heritage. Atelier PT proposed incorporating passive design features derived from the local typology into the conceptual phase and subsequently prompted the client to target LEED Gold for the project. The open amphitheater will provide students and faculty with performance and meeting opportunities. The library will offer open study areas, intimate lounge areas and study rooms and a Net-Café with outdoor seating.
