Shelly Bay Library 3 (2021)
The final project of a three phase design exploration of a library for the Shelly Bay community. The focus of this project is materiality.
Concrete floor, steel structure and timber finishes created a soft and simple material palette.
Vertical timber slats clad the exterior, emphasizing the strong datum of the roof line.
Site plan illustrating the deep integration the design has with its site.
The floor plane manipulated by the rocks below have integrated seating to give the element further function.
Shelving embedded into the earth along the south wall further roots the building into the site.
