Daegu Gosan Public library

Knowledge.  Curiosity.  Awareness.  Education.  Exchange.  Study.  Reflection.  Communication.  Celebration. 

The Daegu Gosan Public Library offers a host of programs placed inside a series of unique forms and spaces – a sphere, a tower, a “cloud” – designed to celebrate our access to public knowledge.  These different shapes, set around two main levels, animate the library, making its interiors at once playful and functional, while giving patrons clear means to identify where they are and what they are seeking.
