Woolston Community Library features an outdoor courtyard, library, and community hall, showcasing a blend of brickwork, exposed steel beams, and a timber canopy, complemented by a raised corten steel planter and shaded by a Japanese maple, enhancing community engagement.
The new Woolston Community Library project is an example of a community project that comprises three main areas: an outdoor courtyard, the library and the community hall. The new urban courtyard blends brickwork, exposed steel beams and a timber canopy with feature pendant and catenary lighting.
A raised corten steel and hardwood timber planter and seat is shaded by a specimen Japanese maple, which will mature to fill the courtyard space with dappled shade. The courtyard is connected by a new laneway to a rear carpark also designed by Canopy. Canopy’s input has included design, detailing and construction supervision
