INTERIORS
LIBRARIES
We re-imagine interior environments to enhance an organization’s productivity while reflecting its unique personality and style. PGAL’s interiors practice solves complex challenges — from strategic facilities planning to interactive and collaborative placemaking.
At PGAL, we understand the evolving nature of libraries, bothpublic and academic, in an increasingly digital world. While to some degree, libraries will always embrace the past in material form, bound between leather and cardboard, they are increasingly becoming places, both physical and virtual, where the public accesses information and creates meaning in primarily digital forms.
