世界最美图书馆藏身于波兰鲁米亚火车站

An old railway station which turned into a public library in Rumia, northern Poland, has just won the Single Space Design category of the 2016 Library Interior Design Awards. It is the only project from Europe which has been recognized in this year’s awards.

波兰北部鲁米亚的一座古老火车站改造成了一个公共图书馆，并获得了2016图书馆室内设计奖的“单体空间奖”。它是今年欧洲仅有的一个入围此奖的建筑。 

The library beat out projects in the United States, Canada and many other countries and regions.

这个图书馆从美国、加拿大以及其他国家和地区的建筑中脱颖而出。

In September 2014, a deteriorating building of Rumia train station was reopened as Stacja Kultura (Culture Station), which combines the functions of a railway station, a public library and a cultural center.

2014年9月，鲁米亚火车站一座破旧的大楼被作为文化火车站重新开放，它融合了火车站、公共图书馆和文化中心的功能。

The revitalized train station is now the main office of Rumia Public Library, which serves both the local community and tourists traveling to the Polish seaside. The whole project cost 5 million zlotys (1.28 million U.S. dollars).

这座复兴的火车站现在是鲁米亚图书馆的主要办公场所，该图书馆不仅为当地的居民服务，也为到这个波兰海边来度假的游客服务。整个工程造价500万兹罗提（约128万美元）。
