Rockdale Library, Sydney
Libraries are nothing if not about ideas. Suddenly there is
a boom in a market segment where the future appeared
cloudy at best. Sydney's Rockdale Council might not be
the first, but its new library is among the best, as stellar
social hub. Forget the sanctified, monastic world of dimlylit study spaces, Rockdale Library appears and feels vibrant.
A design of flowing, light-filled interconnecting spaces,
bold glazing and inclusiveness is a rock-solid base upon
which to build a neighbourhood.
The combination of Viridian PerformaTech and Viridian's
acoustic products, ComfortHush and VLam Hush , in a
double-glazed units seal the deal by opening to the best and
negating the worst aspects of a busy, main road location,
nearby airport activity and high summer heat loads.
