This L!BRARY BENCH is the landmark element of the project and provides a place for one or more classes/groups of students to meet and gather before entering the library. It conveys and celebrates the identity of the library to a passerby in the corridor and stairwell, while allowing a high view into the interior that does not distract children on the platform inside. The impact of a relatively small amount of glass is enhanced by a continuous fluorescent tube behind the bench back, that illuminates the L!BRARY sign. Additional Info: Project completed as part of the Robin Hood Foundation Library Initiative. Materials: Glass Interedge Technologies Architectural woodworking Temdex Industries Ltd. Graphic design by Pentagram Comments: "The bold use of lettering incorporated into a bench provides a clear and memorable identification element at the Library. The glass above provides a nice glimpse into the Library." Joel@schooldesigner.com | Elementary School
