A well-designed, stimulating and vibrant space is one of the most important services an academic library can offer.

The principles of good intuitive design are hugely important, and enthusiasm for library use both for pleasure and study, need to be nurtured so that these skills once learnt, can become the tools of future development.

Recent studies have produced clear evidence that campus libraries are being used more, not less as user needs are changing. Students continue to want study space, but their expectations are different. They want collaborative group space to support new ways of learning, silent areas for revision, and chill out areas and cafes to allow them to spend all day, and sometimes all night in the building. All this, as well as easy access to power to recharge mobile devices.

We recognise that every library is different and are able to offer a wide variety of solutions for creating the best possible space for your needs. Whether it is a complete new library or just refreshing an existing space, use our free design service to help you visualise how the finished project will look and let us help you put the library at the heart of your campus!

Design to inspire

We are at the forefront in changing librariesAs a design led furniture manufacturer and supplier we work with you to improve the student experience. By using intelligent design to create vibrant, welcoming and colourful spaces, we take the role as leaders in our field very seriously.

Education is the fastest growing part of our business The importance we place on development has never been more significant. We know that your library or resource centre is no longer just about books, but a place where students go to enjoy the different types of media available. It is an oasis where they can indulge in study time whist enjoying inspiring surroundings.

We offer the highest quality of designOur highly skilled designers are the backbone of the company. Our aim is to use well thought out design to create the type of space where students will want to spend time. Clever zoning alongside effective use of nooks and crannies can help to create an environment which is ideal for reading and studying. We use computer aided design for our schematic drawings and can even offer 3D realisations to really lift our proposals from the page.

Libraries and usPlanning a new library while working in a busy campus environment can be a challenge so why not use our experience to make things a little easier.

One of our team can visit, measure the space and discuss exactly how you want the space to work. We will then produce a plan so you can be sure that the finished library is exactly how you imagined!
