The library did not define its purpose by allowing it to be used in various ways, breaking away from the stereotype that it is a space for only reading books. There are various spaces such as bar tables, seminar rooms, and long tables that are good for using alone or for many people. The type of visitor was also not specifically defined. Therefore, residents will visit the library more often. With frequent visits by residents, it becomes a village library where people gather and communicate through books and teas.
This library has a different shape from the existing one. The bookcase was built on the wall rather than as furniture, so that the bookcase itself became a wall. The pillar was also hidden by a book curation that selects books according to a specific subject, making them invisible. The library consists of a space suitable for use by a large number of people, alone, in small groups, and several spaces that can be selected according to their use. Unlike conventional libraries, libraries with various spaces become spaces for residents' frequent cultural life.
