This
incredible building was created to bring forth the elements and
functions of a tree house – an environment for learning via a
journey of discovery and play. This metaphor was well executed
through the use of skylights, trellises and coloured glass that
transform incoming daylight into an artwork of sun rays, that
simulates light filtered through the foliage of trees. The library is
raised above the obscurity of its neighbourhood and sets out to stir
the curiosity of the community. It amazes me how the group, LOOK
Architects, transformed this everyday building into a work of art
to inspire and pull the readers of that area. What are your thoughts
on this library?
