The task was to conceive a park library in Hyde Park, London, adjacent to the Serpentine Lake, for an international competition. Employing biomimetics and tectonics, our approach melded site analysis with architectural principles.
​
Drawing from stereotomics and framework concepts, students crafted sketches, models, and designs based on site features. The showcased project, the "Hybrid Library," emerged from a mesh inspired by branching patterns, akin to blood veins and park pathways.
​
This mesh dictated a triangular pattern, aiming to seamlessly integrate the building among the park's foliage, blending harmoniously with the natural surroundings.
