Luminous Vistas:
A Curated Journey through Knowledge, art, and Light
In conceptualizing the WUF’s 12 Urban Library, we have embraced a paperless paradigm that harmonizes seamlessly with the overarching theme of the urban exhibition. This deliberate choice has inspired us to reimagine the library as an interactive exhibition space, where fundamental geometric forms, curated content, captivating artworks, and dynamic lighting converge.
Turning our attention to the ancillary spaces, such as the meeting rooms and interpreter areas, we have integrated them into a single semi-open mass. This strategic design not only optimizes functionality but also imparts a cohesive and contemporary aesthetic to the entire ensemble.
It all starts at home.
The concept of “at home” extends beyond the physical structures that shelter us; it encompasses the cultural, social, economic, and environmental dimensions that define our communities. It is also an invitation to benefit from home values, innovations, solutions, and inspiration and initiate change from home: locally, together, and now.
Drawing inspiration from the intricate weaving motion of classic printing machines, and the graceful journey of paper through this transformative technology, we recognize how it revolutionized the exchange of knowledge, profoundly altering our lives and shaping our cities
