Seikei University Library

Tokyo, Japan

A traditional library is defined as a quiet place for study, yet the new Seikei University Library defines a new idea that embraces all forms of communication and information exchange. The large glazed transparent atrium located in the center of the building accommodates several free standing pods for gathering and information exchange.
