The most beautiful Helsinki Central Library in Northern Europe is not only a library, but also an intelligent market.

To celebrate the centenary of the founding of People's Republic of China (PRC), Finns chose to spend 20 years building a library in Helsinki, the capital, to collect public opinions and redefine the enjoyment of resources.

There are countless ways to celebrate the centenary of People's Republic of China (PRC). Finland, which shocked the world again, chose to spend 20 years building a library as a birthday present for the country.

Known as the most beautiful library in northern Europe, this library is called Oodi, which means "ode" in Finnish. It is located behind the most prosperous central railway station in Helsinki, the capital, next to the Museum of Modern Art and the prairie, which is convenient for all citizens to enter and leave.

The white roof and white insulation paint with dots make Oodi look like a wooden house covered with snow. Floor-to-ceiling windows on all sides guide sunlight into the reading area with white walls and green trees.

Small families with children in their arms pushing strollers in and out; There is an endless stream of young people with headphones and laptops. Every few steps, they will see pictures of different groups discussing with computers.

Finns have improved the original definition of "enjoyment of resources" in libraries, not only enjoying books, but also enjoying tools and space. The big slogan of the Oodi pavilion reads "not owning." Borrow. " .

* * * Enjoy technology, learning and games 20 181On the opening day of Oodi on February 5, Finnish President Sauli Niinist? ) said: "Oodi library is not only a book, but also an intelligent market, a place where people can freely exchange ideas and actions, and a comfortable place where people can enjoy technology, learning and games. 」

This green building has three floors, and each floor is special.

On the first floor, there is a hall to publicize ideas: there is a photo wall to interact with the European Union library to take photos, an opinion area to collect citizens' opinions and build a future city, and a theater and restaurant.

The second floor is a place for work and games: computer software for makers, 3D printer, music studio, conference room, step-by-step discussion space, study room, and a game room dedicated to playing video games.

The third floor is the only reading area: the reading area on the right is next to the coffee shop and outdoor balcony, and the reading area on the left is like a living room.

There is no artificial ecosystem facing the Finnish parliament building, and the Oodi library symbolizes that "knowledge" is the origin of "democracy" and a resource open to all.

Oodi is so open that even foreign tourists can easily use its resources. With a Facebook account, they can borrow the conference room and 3D printer in three minutes.

From the beginning, Oodi was planned as a "multi-functional community center", a place where people can do anything for free, and borrowing books is just one of many activities. "Let people do what they like happily in Oodi" is the criterion for designing every ingenious idea of Oodi library.

There is no manual here, and no one tells tourists what to do. Only a comfortable environment and an open attitude. Just as coral reefs attract small fish to shuttle and form their own ecosystem, Oodi library is a self-contained ecosystem.
