Structural Steel Library
The library design will utilize structural steel in its bare form while adding beauty and balance to the design. The concept of the library design is based on the yin yang symbol, creating the dominant circular formation of the library. The circulation of space will originate from the center of the cloistered space using a radial balance. Innovations will be used to maximize the functionality of the library and experience for the people.
