This new branch library for the community of Doylestown was designed to accommodate a popular materials collection, children’s collection, a small program / meeting room, comfortable seating areas, public computers, and a staff work area.The exterior of the building reinforces the streetscape of the small town while creating a focal point of rebirth in the area. The large windows not only provide ample natural light, but also a connection with the street while drawing people in. Interior materials were selected to provide warmth, durability, and function. Earth tones were accented by the use of copper while the wood ceiling helped to create a comfortable and inviting palette.
