library
A library inside a vaulted hall — one material organises the space, warm accents mark where it slows down.

The shell is centuries old: stone vaults, arched light, the weight of a chapel. The intervention is freestanding, modular, one colour: a saturated blue, dropped in like furniture at architectural scale.
Nothing new touches the architecture. Remove the blue, and the room returns to exactly what it was.
Competition concept - Woodeco, Interior of the year (Distinction, Public Interiors) Build the world a material deserves, and it sells itself. This library is that idea, applied inside a chapel.
Blue shelving units form a maze inside the vault, reading walls, storage, a work desk, organising an open hall without altering it.
Each function gets its own material against the blue: a reading niche in Dąb Windmill Miodowy honey oak, a rust-toned desk and chairs for work, a red velvet sofa and raw stone table for sitting, a stone window bench left exactly as found.
