In drawing upon the rich mining history of Broken Hill, this library project aims to speak to the identity of the place and its people through form and materiality. The repetitive language of the structure is its most notable feature. Alternating gabled and flat bays create a repetition that runs along the site. This gabled, shedlike form evokes a sense of industry and production. Local steel used in the cladding and structure speaks to the identity of Broken Hill as a mining town and also results in local employment opportunities in the construction of this civic building. The portal frame structure is easy to assemble off-site and deliver, which suits the regional nature of the town.
Contrasting the regular, structured repetition of the exterior are the sweeping curves of the interior, which assist in diffusing light to create a comfortable atmosphere. Service spaces have been offset from the main volumes to allow for the organisation of interior spaces to be read from the outside, and also develops a hierarchy of spaces – with the more important ones at the forefront.
