Children's Library at Loving Community

The crux of the design lies in the roof along with the underground water tank for its role in harvesting rainwater which would contribute to resolving the water logging problem as well as the water supply situation in the houses. Applying and strategically locating this idea in multiple places on site, a decentralized program is used to curate a journey that slows down the process of one moving within the community. With the library acting as the destination point, the intent behind its placement along the edge was to help dissolve the boundary between the Loving community and the neighboring societies. It aims to create a place of interaction, not only for the children, but for every resident of the neighborhood.
