Images Description Credits
    This project is a renovation design for Frank Gehry's Frances Howard Goldwyn Library in West Hollywood. It expand the program of the existing library in order to accommodate the need of librarian and local resident.

    The original design gives people an impression of "Box Building", as a contractional part, the new design would suggest it is a "Sphere Building", while the original iconic "boxes" are still hiding inside and waiting the visitors to discover them.

Here is the link for an aerial 360 loop of the site, and a demonstration of the design, the animation start at 00:45.
