The design began with section. The library houses a reading area, a meditation space, activity room, a drinking bar and a resting area. According to each space, the architects established a distinctive relationship between space and the ocean; define how light and wind enters into each room. They piled up seating platforms raised toward the back, so that everyone has an unblocking view towards the sea. The half-arched roof opens toward the sea and implies the main subject of the space. Meanwhile, the curvature allows wide span running both north-south and east-west directions. The use of wood form was inspired by the sand marks of foot prints, wind and wheels on site.
