Carrels Facing the Community Center

A reading area is created by pushing the library wall out into the circulation strip. The metal floor of the ramp folds up to become the wall as well as the roof. At two points, the cladding further extends to become metal desks. A L-shaped, interlocking relationship is formed between the library and the circulation strips. Users in either area are part of both spaces, and the boundary is blurred.
