The design of the new National Library building is modelled on a book page that is in the process of being turned over. The simple, geometric shape of a gentle curve forms the basis for the design and ensures the building has a unique profile, which acts as a distinctive landmark. Contrary to conventional libraries that are often characterised by their rigid shape, the National Library is intended to appeal to people’s emotions in order to be user-friendly. Inside the building is a large, open lobby with a very beautiful view of a lake, while the open space is both inviting and welcoming for visitors.
