The library is sited inside an enclosing perimeter. Access to the site is provided by intimate passages, as one has to pass through the surrounding civic buildings. Entry to the site can be provided from Blende Street, Argent Street and a smaller side street on the west. The building form is designed so that ‘arms’ greet all directions of the site.
The structural system of the building makes up the internal organisation. Structural columns are offset from the building perimeter, circulation runs between these elements. The central spine of the building acts as the main circulation pathway and gathering areas. The arms that connect to the spine house the designated room programs. Internal spaces are largely open plan, changes in floor finishes provide room separation. Public spaces inside the library are located at the northern and southern end to activate the civic space to invite passersby in.
