"weirdest library design EVAR"


Jessamyn West in her excellent blog featured a new library to be built in Prague. This is definitely a one of a kind. It looks like something that belongs on the set of Star Trek. This 48 million extension shows both vision and bravery of the government. To understand the daring of the undertaking view pictures of the project at bd the Architects Website. You can read more about it at: http://www.bdonline.co.uk/story.asp?storycode=3082843
