Education: Libraries
High tech modern library facilities can impact learning and provide study spaces for students and staff. Vivid Interiors has recently completed several interesting library facilities which can be seen below.
Select Case Study
- High Wycombe Library
- Royal Holloway, University of London
- Fore Street Library
- University of London - SOAS
SOAS’ reception was relocated to the fourth floor to allow for the refurbishment of the ground floor library. The project involved cutting an opening through a reinforced concrete wall to form a new library entrance on the fourth floor. Fittings, furnishings and equipment from the existing ground floor library were also relocated to the fourth floor, including the issues and enquiries desk, security turnstiles and book alarms, and photocopiers and self issue machines.
The project included electrical works such as new lighting, power, data, fire alarm and security camera systems; and mechanical works such as new ductwork and cooling system. Works also included demolition of a strong wall, new dwarf walls, floor finishes and decoration.
