Designed by Richärd + Bauer, the Arabian Library utilizes great green building design and innovative new thinking to encourage people to lend from the library. Not only that, but the building is gorgeous, inviting, brightly lit, and a recent winner of the 2008 IIDA/Metropolis Smart Environments Award....<br><br><a href='https://inhabitat.com/arabian-library-by-richard-and-bauer/'>READ ARTICLE</a>
