The design for the library has been based on the overall planning and the positions of surrounding buildings. Four book storage & reading units are separated by three service units, where staircases, elevators, washrooms and a lounge are located. Jagged skylights on the roof introduce daylight into the public spaces. Seen from outside, the four storage & reading units are solid bases, which are rotated to conform to the directions of the streets. The upper part of the building reveals a sense of simplicity with its pure concrete texture.
