Seikei University Library

The warm and cozy university library blends in with the existing landscape of the historic campus and takes in the view of the surrounding rows of zelkova trees. By setting up different layers of space for conversation, eating and drinking, or reading quietly by yourself, it has become a new library space that invites a variety of uses.
