CLIFTON LIBRARY 2020

Lizzie Kepler

Concept: In any library, the books are the most important part. My library emphasizes this idea by using a strong central cylinder that supports the entirety of the building. This is the magnet piece of the space because it is also where the books are being displayed. When looking at the building in section, one will experience the illusion that the floors are floating between the massing of books, referencing the importance of books and education within a community such as Clifton.
