Microlibrary Fibonacci as an “urban ruin” in the middle of the lush park. The parametrically designed, spirally arrayed structure blends in while at the same time, stands out.

With the concept of a modern urban ruin in the park, parametrically-designed, spirally-arrayed, curved concrete ribs are designed to hold a light-weight roof with a moss-textured finish. Opened to all sides.

1:1 partial mock ups of rib corners (12cm thickness) to demonstrate structural abilities, surface quality, and precision of the shotcrete construction.

Microlibrary Helicoid, Babakan Sari: this microlibrary is designed with flowing geometry, that is a helicoid with dual-usage space while having a minimum footprint. Located in the middle of an urban plaza surrounded by a clinic, a school, a district office and a military base.

Microlibrary Lansia, Lansia Park: The second microlibrary in a lush park in the center of Bandung hosting public musholla and toilets. The façade uses PVC pipes of various diameters and lengths where the large pipes are positioned according to the program they represent.

Microlibary Bima, Bima Park: The first pilot is set in diverse middle and lower-income neighborhoods, situated in a small square with a stage that was already in use by the local community. The 2000-ice-cream bucket façade – which scatters direct sunlight – represents a message in binary code: “books are the windows to the world”.
