Incredible design.I like the careful utilization,demarcation and definition of space.This would boost up reading spirits if enacted in Kenya.The transparent floor can be swapped to translucent glass to increase the privacy gradient.How would anyone receive assistance to develop one locally for the community?

I love the design and utilization of space but I have to agree with joanneQW on the transparent floor. One of these images shows a woman taking a photograph of the kids standing above her and one of those kids is wearing a skirt. There has to be a privacy issue with that, surely?

Lovely piece of architecture/engineering – but how long, I wonder, before the ‘political correctness’/child protection issues of having a see-through floor leads to complaints?

Incredible! I love books but feel sad that most children in my country – Nigeria – have no desire to read books! We have greedy leaders who do not see the damage they cause to our future world! God help us!

That is a creative way of adding a second space inside a space.
