South Library

We taxi'd straight over from from Spreydon to South, spookily the furniture colours were similar to those we had for Altona North, it gave us a homely feeling!

The building is striking from the outside and again highlights are the real integration of the outside environment and bringing the green in. As seems to be Chirstchurch's theme the building was long and rectangular, with a cafe and a spacious reading area.

To me the shelving felt quite industrial for the space, looking back at my pics it has been the same everywhere but it feels it here, not sure why.

The building was multi use hosting a learning centre and a Council customer service desk offering residents a "one stop shop" for Council and Community services.

A fantastic addition to the outside is the striking moat, chessboard in the courtyard and external artwork. Only sad thing was that it was a VERY quiet night, an hour from closing and only a handful of customers.
