Moving a popular public library from an old existing building to new premises. The library was relocated to a precinct area to occupy what was formerly three separate retail units.

External signage ties in with the bright airy feel of the interior. The all-wood effect shelving was fitted with lit panels to accentuate specific areas whilst attracting attention to book stock. Contemporary colour schemes were applied to draw attention from various perspectives.
Shelving was positioned to define areas, with each area being given design treatment to suit designated space. Bespoke furniture was installed around existing fixtures.
The bright feature wall in the children’s area is complemented with dynamic lighting, brightly coloured furniture and bespoke kinder boxes.
