Best Design Project for Library

About the project (provided by the applicant)
Library Norma is a project aimed at transforming a small, outdated city library into a modern, comfortable, and multifunctional space that meets all contemporary norms and standards. Modernizing libraries opens a new chapter in public service, significantly improving the quality of services provided. The library’s informational, educational, and cultural mission as a new community hub is enhanced through a thoughtful approach to space planning, expansion of the book collection, and additional technical equipment.

The library space is organized to accommodate diverse visitor needs: reading corners, areas with local internet access for remote work and study, a hall for lectures, workshops, and film screenings, as well as dedicated zones for teenagers and young adults.
