Library
Demo projectHarbour Library
A public library on the waterfront with a tiered reading amphitheatre at its centre.
Demo project — sample content created by Scope to show how the platform works. It does not represent a real Scope client project.
Main concept
The client wanted somewhere to be, not just somewhere to borrow. Half the floor area is seating: window benches, the amphitheatre stair, and long shared tables. The timber cladding is untreated and is already silvering on the harbour side.
