The Library of Congress has to be one of the most beautiful building interiors I've ever seen. There will be many more photos of it in the days to come. :)

For FlickrBingo 2, week 48

 

Not a great shot. They've placed a lot of stuff in front of this, making the light even worse than usual. Otherwise this piece is full of nice details - I had it earmarked for this assignment all along.

I had the day off of work today, so a few of us got together at Adler Planetarium and then made our way to the University of Chicago. I shot inside the Harper Memorial Library for the first time. The student at the entrance to the library was very helpful. She took us up into the loft for a shot out over the library. The library has been converted into a reading lounge, but it is still a very cool location..

Don't forget to join me on March 10th for our second Out of Chicago photo walk. Hopefully we will be able to get into this location for one of our stops. It should be a fun night..

Joining me today were Tony Reynes, Howard Frank, Rick Seidel, and Jonathan Robson. Check out their Flickr sites to see their shots from today.

Seattle Public Library

Architect: Rem Koolhaas

 

Here one gets a pretty good feeling of how the individual levels more or less 'float' above one-another, each stack of floors representing a different function. As each 'function-block' is horizontally shifted, the facade 'net' simply follows this shift.

Notes : the library interior at the Winter opening. The mural shows William Caxton (c. 1422 – c. 1491) English merchant, diplomat and writer; thought to be the first person to introduce a printing press into England in 1476, and as a printer to be the first English retailer of printed books.

 

"LIBRARY CENTRE AT KATOOMBA

After the Minister for Education, Mr. Evatt, had opened the Katoomba Boys' and Girls' Library and Crafts Club on Saturday afternoon, children stayed to read books beside the library fire. The club, which is the eighth centre of the Children's Library Movement, is built from six disused garages, which have been converted into one central library, opening into two craft rooms on either side. It features murals designed by Dahl Collings and Elaine Haxton. Those present at the opening included the president of the local auxiliary, Dr. E. Dark, and Mrs. Eleanor Dark; the Mayor of Katoomba, Alderman Freelander, and the organising secretary of the Children's Library Movement, Mrs. Mary Matheson"
