SN hetta描述了这个设计灵感来自附近的山麓，创造了一个梯田地形，跨过现有的轻轨交通线路，跨越现场。在它的中间部分，建筑物升降机形成一个拱形的，木质的入口，作为一个新的公共广场，并直接连接行人通过现场附近的社区。

Snøhetta describes the design to be inspired by the nearby foothills, creating a terraced topography that steps over an existing light rail transit line which crosses the site. At its mid-section, the building lifts to form an arched, wood-clad entry that serves as a new public plaza and directly connects pedestrians through the site from the neighboring communities.

作为一种鼓励行人进入图书馆的尝试，在图书馆最公共的区域，外墙的玻璃开口在战略上是透明的。一旦进入，一个宏伟的，自然照明的中庭提供了一个图书馆的整体计划一瞥。以木质楼梯和走道为标志的循环，当它向中庭蜿蜒而上时，就被展示出来了。

The exterior’s fritted glass openings are strategically transparent in library’s most public areas as an attempt to encourage pedestrians to enter. Once inside, a grandiose, naturally lit atrium offers a glimpse at the library’s overall program. Circulation, marked by wooden stairs and walkways, is placed on display as it winds its way up the atrium. 

参与的公共项目是在地面和较低层组织的，而较安静的学习区域则占据了图书馆的最上层。

Engaging public programs are organized at the ground and lower-levels, while quieter study areas occupy the library’s uppermost floors.
