這次翻新最大亮點之一「BATHHOUSE 澡堂區」,留存日治時期的通風天井、花磚、窗紋及歷史痕跡,位居中央的半圓形澡池,成為容納各種想法與思維存在的容器,未來將作為策展空間,匯集靈感,增加更多可能性。
Maintaining interior details from the Japanese colonial period, the façade of the semi-circular bathtub, the “Bathhouse,” represents a vessel that holds different ideas and thoughts, indicating the library’s potential to develop into a diverse immersive experience in the future, the TDRI said.
此外,「不只是圖書館」更打破傳統室內圖書館印象,將圖書館搬到「戶外」,設立「BREATH 戶外花園」讓民眾可以在綠意盎然的戶外閱讀區,深呼吸、放鬆心靈,享受沈浸式閱讀樂趣。
The “Outdoor Garden,” formerly a patio where underground steam was released, is now an al fresco reading area where visitors can take a break and get some fresh air.
「不只是圖書館」即日起對外開放,營業時間為週二至週日上午10時至晚上6時,週一及國定假日休館。單日一般票80元,單日學生票 60元。
“Not Just Library” is open to the public from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Tuesday to Sunday, and closed on Mondays and national holidays, with day-pass tickets costing NT$80 (US$2.71) and student tickets priced at NT$60.
