October 11

Currently working on bookmarks, including a template.
Considering the architectural style of the Bexley Public Library, this particular article seems useful in looking at the balance of maintaining historic tradition, yet still modernizing:

Many people want nothing more than the comfort and quiet dignity of a traditional style when they go to the library. These projects, many of them historic restorations, offer just that.

 
This renovation manages to balance the solidity and historic style, yet adds a "pop" of color as an accent.
 
 
 
 
This reading room reminds me a bit of Bexley's, and yet an added natural element (the plants), brings in accents of color without resorting to artificial means.
