Information
This project was designed as part of the 2nd year of the BSc in Architecture at Cardiff University. It is located in the English Riviera, in Dawlish. The project features a library called the Undulating Handkerchief. This is because the wafer-thin canopy is inspired from the unique beauty of the undulating topography of the site. As a notion of preserving this natural gem, the canopy mimics the topography's undulation making the design unique to its location. As a sustainable notion, the Library blends nature within the design by introducing naturally lit vegetated courtyards.
