What activities would you like to do in the new library, and what types of spaces will you need to do these?
Comments 3
Our winning design for the Green Square library includes a large community room - it is the entire length of the lower ground floor and has the library garden at its heart. A connecting tower building has four levels of multipurpose technology space with a rooftop outdoor reading area.
The design features 5 main zones:
- Entry & Lobby Gallery
- General Library
- Childrens Zone
- Youth Zone
- Back of house and
- Service desk
An amphitheatre provides opportunities for library events and outdoor reading. Download the floor plan.
We would love your feedback on what activities you would like to do in these zones and how we can design them to meet your needs.

What will help make the plaza an active and safe place at night?

The plaza will be an urban living room at the heart of Green Square's commercial precinct, surrounded by high density residences and shops. It will be a place to meet up, hang out, relax and contemplate or get involved in library activities and community events. Download the plan for the plaza.
We'd love to know your ideas on using the plaza at night. What will make it fun, active and a safe place to be?

What technology will you need in the library? Think about outdoors in the plaza as well!

We know that libraries in the 21st century are as full of technology as they are with books and newspapers. The design features a connecting tower building with four levels of multipurpose technology space with a rooftop outdoor reading area.
Let us know what technology you'd like to see in the new library at Green Square - and don't forget about what you'll need outdoors in the plaza as well.
