Appreciation towards Reddy Architecture for providing the following description:

位于Athy小镇的Dominican教堂被改造成市政图书馆。原建堂建筑拥有令人惊叹的曲面屋顶，和色彩斑斓的玻璃立面。全新的图书馆建筑将保留这些原建筑的特色外貌，最大限度保留其内部光照强度，同时将室内环境升级改造成现代化的图书馆。

The former Dominican Church in Athy Town is to be a new municipal library. The original building is formed of a striking hyperbolic parabolic curved roof with significant elements of stained glass artwork and the design concept was to preserve the original spatial and light qualities of the former church, whilst upgrading to provide a modern library.

开放性的空间规划，增加了未来内部空间发展的灵活性。这一开放性的设计使得来访者获得自助式服务，节省了管理人员的调度，也让空间使用流线更加清晰合理，易于使用。室内多设多用途区域以实现空间的多功能性。可自由移动摆设的家具，为空间展览，讲演，工作坊，会议及其他活动提供更多空间。设计师注重空间的第一印象，该空间设计旨在触发来访者的第一空间感受，并赋予他们探索空间的热情。

The space is largely open plan allowing for flexibility which will allow the service to accommodate future service direction. This openness will also allow self-service, economic deployment of staff, clear traffic flow and optimum accessibility. The multipurpose area is designed for multifunctional usage; furniture can be moved and stored away to accommodate floor exhibitions, lectures, workshops, conferences and training. The focus of the design team is to develop a space that would encourage an initial visit, which would hold attention and lead to further visits.

此次重修工程包含建筑内现有楼层的所有拆除工程，新员工区域的规划，公共卫生间，储藏间，公共休息厅，会客厅以及两层公共阅览区域。其中一处阅览区位于原建筑的外延平台上。该项目保留了原有教堂十字架，和教堂的玻璃花窗。此外，该图书馆还设置的全新的家具和书架，以及用于图书馆日常运营的各种智能设备。这些新加入的功能性设备让图书馆具备更加灵活的空间组织方式，满足图书馆的日常所需，同时也促进了图书馆的运行，存储，学习，表演，信息资讯和服务性需求的现代化发展。建筑内部的可拆卸灵活空间配置，为其未来的发展提供了便利。该建筑的改造赋予其自身以新的生命，在此后的岁月里，它将持续作为公共职能建筑为社会大众带去优秀的服务功能。

The work comprises the leveling of all existing floors, demolition works internally, new staff areas, public toilets, storage areas, comms room and meeting area together with 2 levels of open library space (1 space on the extended original balcony area). The works also include the protection of the existing cut stone stations of the cross and significant restoration works to existing stained glass windows. Other elements of work include the fitted shelving and furniture, specialist IT equipment such as Open Library and Radio Frequency Identification, Technology together with all associated works. These works will provide an innovative and demount-able solution to the needs of the library by way of a flexible hub space that can facilitate IT, storage, study, performance, information and service requirements of a modern functioning library, and allow for future deconstruction, reconfiguration and reuse. The transformation of the building will give it a new lease of life and will continue the use of the structure as a public building.
