The central feature is a spiral staircase that ascends through an atrium, with bookshelves lining the walls. The top floor has a reading room with panoramic views. The library is a popular spot for both reading and architecture enthusiasts. It offers a vast collection of books, media, and digital resources, as well as event spaces and a café.
