I'm (still!) working on my paper about Finnish public libraries and their architecture. There's an interesting recent development where the library is fused with other public services. In the Iso Omena mall in Espoo, Finland, the library now also serves as the waiting area for the local health centre. I'm not yet sure what to think about this. At least, this multiuse space could have been given some identity and character. #library#publiclibrary#publiclibraries#libraryarchitecture#architecture@academicchatter@architecture
