To facilitate self-learning through design, the ‘library’ is redefined as an open, approachable and comfortable co-learning space. The library unfolds along a dynamic spine of bookshelves. The undulating bookshelves are incorporated with flexible seatings and functions, stretching their limitation beyond archives of books.
While books are oriented inwards, the outward-looking reading spaces are embraced by the sea and mountains. Colours resembling nature, and acoustic materials are used to re-connect students with the gifted natural environment around the campus.
The library is also equipped with VR classroom, interactive tablets to promote learning beyond the hardcopy books.
