An Italian library that floats on the water
On the site of a former industrial warehouse, Andrea Maffei Architects (along with Arata Isozaki) have realized a new public library filled with light and bound by an undulating curtain wall. Before construction ever began, Maffei and Isozaki beat out 150 other teams for the opportunity to realize a new library for the city of Maranello, Italy. In their solution, a solid wall surrounds the perimeter of the site, and the plan looks not unlike someone has drawn a cloud or amoeba in a box. The library, itself, has a bright interior bound by curving glass walls. Between this glass wall and the solid site wall, a shallow pool of water surrounds most of the project, giving the impression of a serene interior. It doesn’t hurt that the interior of the project is mostly white.

Church at Worth Abbey Heatherwick Studio
Designed to be built over time, Francis Pollen’s church at Worth Abbey was erected between 1964 and 1974 but ultimately completed in 2011 by Thomas Heatherwick and a team that included DPA Lighting Design. Driven by programmable controls, the flexible lighting system allows the monks to create atmospheric scenes that illuminate the lantern and ceiling singly or in tandem, highlight the altar with an overhead pendant and perimeter spots, and use light and shadow for function or meditative effects.
