I have been living in Punggol for a few years, and while the northeast has nearly everything that I could ever want without having to take an MRT into the city, there was one thing that was missing – a public library. Our public libraries are a great place to get some work done or simply relax with a good...
That’s why I am happy to learn that the Punggol Regional Library has recently opened its doors. Not only is it a massive treasure trove of books galore, but the design is also really cool sia.
One of the most popular areas inside is Spark!Lab, a DIY tinkering space collab with the US Smithsonian Institution. The goal of this space is to inspire children to come up with creative solutions to different challenges. They can test their inventions in a Vertical Wind Tunnel, or experiment with cool mechanisms and find out how they work at the Gearheads table.
The Punggol Regional Library was also developed with the disabled community in mind, with plenty of accessible features. There are assistive technology devices such as coloured keyboards with larger keys to assist people with visual impairment, and wheelchair-accessible book borrowing stations. The new Borrow-n-Go station allows wheelchair users to easily borrow books by passing through a dedicated passageway.
The first double-storey library located within a mall won Design of the Year under the President's Design Award Singapore 2015, and was also showcased at the 16th International Architecture Exhibition of the Venice Biennale.With its 16 coloured windows protruding from the side of the building, this library’s avant-garde architecture sets it apart from all the other libraries in Singapore.
