David HealyAnastasios Anastasiou CORK CITY LIBRARYThis project responds to the detailed requirements of a real brief which was developed by the Cork City Librarians’ Department for the provision of a new Central Library on their existing site at Grand Parade Cork. The project is special in how it investigates all aspects of the design in a variety of media over the course of its development. Ease of movement and interesting internal spatial arrangements were achieved while at the same satisfying the complex brief requirements of a large public library. The building has an appropriate civic presence on one of the most important urban spaces in Cork. Tutor(s)
