Albion Library

With its polychrome curtain of TERRART® baguettes, the new library clearly stands out from its surroundings and provides a friendly, open and playful contrast to the asphalt and concrete streetscape. The ceramic shield presents a double structure of terracotta panels and applied baguettes, resulting in a three-dimensional façade. At the corners, the cladding is elevated, producing a slanted form that emphasises the entrance area and brings sunlight into every angle of the building. Dynamic and transparent, the vibrant effect of the façade extends both inside and out.
