The starfield library in Seoul
#korea #seoul #starfieldlibrary #travel

We visited the Suwon Starfield Library in January 2024. This is a beautiful space in the middle of the Starfield Suwon shopping centre. It isn't worth a trip to Suwon to visit by itself, but if you are in Suwon and have the time, it's worth dropping in (and Suwon is worth visiting).

Note: If you see this post on Mastodon, it will only show you the first four photos (there are nine). Open the original post to see them all.

The main focal point of the library space. A wide flight of steps/benches rises up in the centre. The walls on either side are floor-to-ceiling bookshelves that go up four floors. Above the tiered seating area/steps are more levels of bookshelves.

Walking into the main library area from the side. There are high bookshelves rising up on the right, while on the left is the main tiered benches/steps.

One side of the main library space. The walls go up four stories, with gaps like windows where people on other floors can look down. The walls go in and out in a triangle pattern and are entirely bookshelves loaded with books. Everything is lit in warm colours.

After breakfast at the RYSE, we went to Gangnam to meet up with friends. We visited Bongeunsa, followed by Seolleung and Jeongneung Royal Tombs and the Starfield Library. We ended up at Hongdae for dinner.

The Starfield Library in Seoul, inaugurated on May 31st, 2017, spans an impressive 2,800 square meters across two floors within the renowned Starfield Coex Mall.

Its striking design features towering bookshelves up to 13 meters high, housing a diverse collection of 50,000 books and nearly 600 magazines.

Visitors are captivated by the ever-changing art installations, including a whimsical fruit and vegetable tree and a majestic tower of books, enhancing the library's aesthetic appeal.

Shinsegae, the owner, invested 6 billion won in its development and allocated 500 million annually for its upkeep.

Remarkably, the library's presence has revitalized foot traffic within the mall, drawing both locals and tourists to its unique blend of culture and commerce.
