Mabatho Esther Kekana Centre of Excellence, Library

MABATHO ESTHER KEKANA CENTRE OF EXCELLENCE, LIBRARY
Majaneng
2005
The traditional grid windowed library’s form is deconstructed. Planes pull out and cut in to become an entrance, extra book space, a coffee shop and even roofs. A glass facade links all that is within with nearby spaces or buildings. The roof floats on and below thin elements. Natural stone protects the offices from the western sun.
