City Library, Rijeka

 The organizing element of the library is its structure: mesh membranes and the central patio with the staircase. The patio is designed in relation to the sunrays trajectories in order to bring light into the building, while the floor plans are flexible, organized in different sections for visitors and library staff. The interior has walls, parts of mesh membranes which articulate every floor through the landscape of unexpected spatial configuration.
