Universal Public Library

`Using daylight as a play` is this project`s goal. Recognizing light by using architecture as a media and enjoying this space is the project`s goal.
Light is always even to everything. It is even to plants, animals, and to humans. That is why this library is designed for blind people as well as normal people, to be able to enjoy the play of light through architecture. The spaces that are arranged in a straight line can be defined as one way spaces. One way spaces have more advantages than spaces that are formed like a network for blind people, That is why this library has a public space which has a certain vector. The stack rooms are arranged along the vector direction. The one way spaces are stacked vertically also, and are connected with a ramp, so that horizontal movement can occur at the same time with vertical movement.
