What I found fascinating about this design is that, at the time it was designed, the surrounding context was under complete redevelopment. "Consequently, the library could not adapt itself to an existing context, but had to anticipate its future surroundings. Jo Coenen’s solution has been to search for a connection to what the future context might be, to predict which sensations might be evoked by those new surroundings".
This is relatable to our Library Design, which is just part of an urban renewal project around the Wharves.
