Library Refurbishment Phase I, Teesside University
We were successful in winning the Teesside University library refurbishment project thanks to our previous successes when working with the university.
The key design objective was to create an inviting library that interacted with the Middlesbrough Campus more , particularly at ground floor level. We developed an interior design strategy with a contemporary palette of materials and a focused colour strategy. These elements contribute towards an engaging learning environment whilst enhancing the ambience of the library.
The application of colour within the building gives a holistic sense of identity, highlights key spaces and assists in wayfinding. Each floor is allocated a base colour: green, pink, blue, turquoise and orange. Colour is subtly applied within the core atrium space to depict the levels and relate to the activities on each floor.
The base palette for the ground floor is supported by a selection of complimentary tonal variations, which adds to the visual impact and overall aesthetics. Each zone is highlighted to enhance visual identity and colour association, this is further enhanced by the use of materials and detail to floor finishes, walls, feature furniture, lighting and graphic identity.
