This remarkable project by NADAA is the product of sustained dialogue and collaboration with the greater community in Boston. Considering countless layouts through a series of iterations, the public were invited to use their imaginations. Some of the fruits of this collaboration include: the tri-axial layout of adults, teens, and children; the visual communication between all sections of the library; and the transparency between the library and the street.
NADAAA is a design firm with expertise in architecture, landscape, and urban design. With a defined culture of research, collaboration, and fabrication, the firm has challenged the building industry by taking on its means and methods, while also developing innovative ways of building at many scales– from the scale of infrastructure to furniture. Led by Nader Tehrani the firm operates with twenty-five collaborators, between offices in Boston and New York City.
