since The end of The indusTrial age, The word “ciTy” became a mechanical space filled wiTh shopping cenTres and commercial skyscrapers. consumerism Turned The ciTy inTo a monoTonous funcTion
alThough The physiological and safeTy needs are generally saTisfied, people’s spiriTual needs are hardly fulfilled. emoTions such as loneliness, anxieTy and spiriTual empTiness are increasing in urbanisaTion. chinaTown in melbourne is an urbanisaTion now crowded wiTh various shops and resTauranTs, exposing The issues such as The funcTional monoTonous on The sTreeT.
The evolving library is designed To saTisfy The higher level of needs in human socieTy and increase funcTions in The ciTy. people could obTain belonging, esTeem requiremenTs, cogniTive, aesTheTic and self-acTualisaTion from This space.
The modular objecTs are adapTable for boTh physical and digiTal publicaTion. The combinaTion of absorpTion and reflecTive maTerials is designed for acousTics and aTmosphere skylighTs enrich The spaTial experiences in The lounge
