[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Lee Seryeong] The Gyeongnam Provincial Office of Education announced on the 7th that Masan Jihyeui Bada Library received the 7th Korean Cultural Space Award hosted by the Korean Cultural Space Architecture Society.


This award is given by the society to architectural works in six fields including libraries, museums, and art galleries that provide a vision for space.


Masan Jihyeui Bada was recognized for presenting a new paradigm through diverse spatial arrangements, moving beyond the traditional library functions of data storage and reading.


The library transformed a closed school facility into a complex reading and cultural space where reading, culture, and arts coexist, and it opened in 2018.



Ahn Taehwan, Head of the Creative Talent Division at the Gyeongnam Office of Education, said, “Through Masan Jihyeui Bada Library, we will do our best to operate it so that citizens can newly recognize the value of space and that it can fulfill its role as a new complex cultural space where reading and cultural spaces coexist.”
