Green Square Library and Plaza
Green Square Library And Plaza
Green Square Library and Plaza opened in September 2018 to great acclaim. Designed by Stewart Hollenstein, in association with Stewart Architecture, and delivered for City of Sydney, the library and plaza are located at the Green Square, which is set to be the most densely populated urban area in Australia. Used by a broad demographic of residents, including students, workers, children, parents and grandparents, the library required versatile, hardwearing and stylish seating, for which KE-ZU supplied Lottus chairs by Enea.
The library is a fluid, free-flowing space that circulates around a lush, central garden with bench seats and a children’s reading circle. The Lottus chairs are also used in the meeting rooms where their crisp white forms pop against the colour-saturated backdrops, and in the café upstairs, where chairs and stools provide a lightweight, moveable option.
Queen Camilla is wearing a vibrant blue blouse with a brooch engaged in a conversation while seated on light-colored Lottus chairs in the modern library space. Like many contemporary libraries, Green Square Library does more than house a book collection. It’s a place to read, to work, to play and explore, and often, just somewhere comfortable to be.
