About the Project
Naturally weathering materials—wood, concrete, Cor-Ten steel, copper, zinc, and stone—along with the judicious use of glazing, contributes to a design that is sophisticated yet fits well in its neighborhood. The library features daylit interior spaces, outdoor reading plazas, acoustically separated areas for teen activities, and a flexible maker space. Vega DC actuators on awning windows along with CoreControl panels were specified for automated natural ventilation.
