The intervention aims to organise the new library and archive programme in a clear and simple way. From the heritage point of view, its ambition is to recover the lost prominence of the unique outdoor spaces, courtyard and garden, due to the numerous transformations suffered over time.

On the ground floor, a large hallway runs lengthwise through the building and organises all the circulations in the library. Like an interior street, it connects the main entrance with the courtyard and the garden. On one side, a new stone wall accompanies the traffic to the exit. This thick wall of granite ashlars contains the existing windows, the entrances to other rooms and a new niche for seating, and brings together the various archaeological artefacts found in the original building. In front of it, a wooden volume groups together the municipal archive programme, the toilets and the lift.
The organisation of the first floor also shows that the central courtyard is the epicentre of the project. All the available space is freed up for the reading room, which runs uninterruptedly around it.
