The Gabriel García Library in Barcelona, designed by the renowned SUMA Architectura, is an architectural marvel that has transformed the concept of libraries. Inspired by a stack of books, the building’s exterior is a testament to its literary roots. Inside, the spacious interior boasts a refreshing red spruce finish and a large window on the fourth floor that opens to a verdant wall of vegetation. The library offers a diverse range of spaces, including hammocks, round straw seats, and bean bags, inviting patrons to relax and immerse themselves in the world of books. Its innovative design has earned it numerous accolades, including the 2024 EU Prize for Contemporary Emerging Architecture – Mies van der Rohe Award and the title of the best new library in the world by the World Congress of Libraries in 2022.
