The Très Grande Bibliothèque (TGB) was a proposal for the national French library submitted by Rem Koolhaas + OMA in 1989.
TGB is an inversion of the expected behavior of a building. The absence created by voids is what defines the most important and most focused on aspects of the design. This design was imagined as a solid block of information (a dense repository for the past) from which voids are carved to create public spaces (absence floating in memory).
Imagine a building consisting of regular and irregular spaces, where the most important parts of the building consist of an absence of building.
Produced using Rhino, Illustrator, Photoshop, and Vray.
