Bright & inviting entry courtyard canopy

The 2017 Grant for Las Palmas Library improvements included re-organizing interior programmed spaces, new furniture and fixtures, expanded bathrooms, and a re-designed entry with new canopy. Seventh Generation Design executed programming excersizes with the community and library workers to better program the library interior for use. The vibrant colors selected best represent the predominantly hispanic neighborhood, and the entry canopy is constructed with fabric panels wich are angled for both sun shade and air circulation. The canopy utilizes the existing exterior exposed structure.
