The white colour scheme was enhanced using accent colours and edge lit acrylic.

Bespoke furniture solutions including display units, reception and service desks were installed.

Calypso shelving was installed in the library for its versatility, at various heights. Single and double sided shelving units made the most of the space available. Various end panel solutions enabled additional display points and iconic local images were used on end panels to create a community vibe. The children’s area features bespoke furniture solutions in vibrant colours to attract younger patrons.
