Summary:

Sited on the northwest corner of Martin Luther King, Jr. Park, this new civic and cultural hub embodies the values of the park's namesake and is envisioned as a space for community empowerment and edification. As part of an extensive revitalization of the park, the Winter Park library and events center is in harmony with the unique tropical ecology of the site and is conceived as a micro-village of three pavilions, each of different scale and function but which share a common formal language. The village is comprised of a new two-story library, an event center with rooftop terrace, as well as a new welcome portico that ushers users from the street and unifies the three structures. Guided by biophilic design principles, all three pavilions-composed of rose-pigmented concrete- rest on a raised belvedere that provides idyllic views onto Lake Mendsen, increasing connectivity to the park's wellness offerings and supporting a new network of exterior green community spaces that run between the three structures. -- Publisher's website.
