Once again the use of Parametric design tools has proven to provide a curvy wooden structure that is both light and transportable. Designed by Downtown Studio for a street library in Bulgaria called Rapana, is a semicircle that stores books on wooden moduled-shelves and allows the exchange of books. Brought to life by a team of young architects and designers, they wanted to encourage reading books in this digital era we are entirely based in by building a public library. The city of Varna, located on the seaside, gave the inspiration to the young designers to construct the shell of a sea snail. The team tested over 20 varying formations with tools like Rhinoceros and Grasshopper by changing the vertical and horizontal numbers, height and width of the structure. The structure ended up providing seating areas, shelving for book exchange but also shelter to visitors.
