皇家圖書館線條輪廓鮮明、拋光墻面熠熠生輝，是哥本哈根海濱最重要的地標性建筑。皇家圖書館新館因其黑色花崗巖的外表被稱為黑鉆石。

新館位于哥本哈根的歷史中心，標志著傳統圖書館結構的根本性轉變，并且兼容各種文化設施。因其開放和民主的本質，該館設有科學和文學機構、展覽室、書店、咖啡館和餐廳，還有一個屋頂露臺和一個專門為音樂會、文藝演出和會議設計的大廳。新館是舊館總體規模的兩倍。

新圖書館有七個樓層和一個地下室。純黑色立方體被巨大的玻璃中庭一分為二，中庭設有大部分公共設施。中庭是觀賞海濱全景的位置，也是主要的日光源，日光照射到整棟建筑的各個角落。

皇家圖書館已經成為哥本哈根的一個標志，是城市生活中聞名、便利的公共場所。設計旨在為哥本哈根的市民、學生、游客和餐館客人建造一個非正式的聚會場所。不斷變化的空間人頭涌動，充滿了動力和活力，建筑以精煉的方式連接公共空間和私人區域。

The Royal Library is with its clean-cut lines and glittering polished surfaces one of the most significant architectural landmarks on the Copenhagen waterfront. Clad in black granite, the extension to the Royal Library is known as The Black Dia-mond.

Situated in the historic heart of Copenhagen, the extension marks a radical shift from traditional library structure and accommodates a range of cultural facilities. Open and essentially democratic, the building includes scientific and literary insti-tutions, exhibition rooms, a bookshop, a café and a restaurant, as well as a roof terrace and a hall for concerts, theatrical performances and conferences. The extension has doubled the library’s overall size.

The new library has seven storeys plus a basement. The solid black cube is di-vided in two by a vast glazed atrium housing the majority of public functions. This central space, affording panoramic views over the waterfront, also serves as a significant source of daylight which is dispersed throughout the building.

The Royal Library has become an icon for Copenhagen – a prominent, accessi-ble and public focal point for the life in the city. The aim of the design was to cre-ate an informal meeting place for citizens in Copenhagen, students, tourists and restaurant guests. The dynamic rooms are crowded with people and filled with movement and life, and in a sophisticated way, the building connects the public and private areas.
