Besides serving as a space to read and rest, the Twisted Brick Library is also designed to represent its surreal position between urban and rural settings. The Twisted Brick Library comprises two brick-hemispheres which are linked via a twisting section of wall. The wall is made from perforated steel plates, and concrete cast in situ. The concrete almost looks like mortar between the bricks, and resembles typical brick buildings seen in the town located closely to the pavilion.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-489874\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2024\/05\/twisted-brick-shell-library\/twisted_brick_shell_library_yanko_design_05.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"1850\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2024\/05\/17\/meet-the-twisted-brick-shell-library-a-surreal-pavilion-for-visitors-to-read-in\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Meet The Twisted Brick Shell Library \u2013 A Surreal Pavilion For Visitors To Read In\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2024\/05\/twisted-brick-shell-library\/twisted_brick_shell_library_yanko_design_05.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload alignnone size-full wp-image-489874\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2024\/05\/twisted-brick-shell-library\/twisted_brick_shell_library_yanko_design_05.jpg\" alt width=\"1280\" height=\"1850\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2024\/05\/17\/meet-the-twisted-brick-shell-library-a-surreal-pavilion-for-visitors-to-read-in\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Meet The Twisted Brick Shell Library \u2013 A Surreal Pavilion For Visitors To Read In\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2024\/05\/twisted-brick-shell-library\/twisted_brick_shell_library_yanko_design_05.jpg\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-4\" style=\"margin: 8px 0; clear: both;\">\n<amp-ad width=\"100vw\" height=\"320\" type=\"adsense\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-0648786275385337\" data-ad-slot=\"1017606968\" data-auto-format=\"rspv\" data-full-width><\/p>\n<div overflow><\/div>\n<p><\/amp-ad><\/div>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-2\" style=\"margin: 8px 0; clear: both;\">\n<div style=\"padding: 4px; margin: 18px auto 20px; text-align:center;\"><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\" type=\"f2f53abad31e820815c7adec-text\/javascript\"><\/script><br \/>\n<script type=\"f2f53abad31e820815c7adec-text\/javascript\">\n<\/script><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-489875\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2024\/05\/twisted-brick-shell-library\/twisted_brick_shell_library_yanko_design_07.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"850\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2024\/05\/17\/meet-the-twisted-brick-shell-library-a-surreal-pavilion-for-visitors-to-read-in\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Meet The Twisted Brick Shell Library \u2013 A Surreal Pavilion For Visitors To Read In\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2024\/05\/twisted-brick-shell-library\/twisted_brick_shell_library_yanko_design_07.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload alignnone size-full wp-image-489875\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2024\/05\/twisted-brick-shell-library\/twisted_brick_shell_library_yanko_design_07.jpg\" alt width=\"1280\" height=\"850\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2024\/05\/17\/meet-the-twisted-brick-shell-library-a-surreal-pavilion-for-visitors-to-read-in\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Meet The Twisted Brick Shell Library \u2013 A Surreal Pavilion For Visitors To Read In\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2024\/05\/twisted-brick-shell-library\/twisted_brick_shell_library_yanko_design_07.jpg\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-8\" style=\"margin: 8px 0; clear: both;\">\n<amp-ad layout=\"fluid\" height=\"fluid\" type=\"doubleclick\" data-slot=\"\/3847355\/yd-select-amp\"><\/amp-ad><\/div>\n<p>\u201cThe structure is in a semi-rural area very close to a town,\u201d said Chen. \u201cYou can strongly feel the <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>roaching of urbanisation on this seemingly still idyllic area.
