The Library for the Farmers.

#SolarPunk #Library #OurWonderfulGreenFuture #Japan #Architecture #Environment
An underground library seamlessly integrated into a grassy hillside, with its curved, earth-covered roof blending into the natural landscape. The building’s entrance is formed by a gentle cut into the slope, revealing warm wooden interiors visible through a large glass façade. Inside, the library features concentric circular bookshelves and cozy reading nooks, illuminated by soft, natural light filtering from above.
