FINE ASSUMPTIONS The appearance of the composition is the primary visual phenomena. But yet to determine materiality, tactility, invoice, smoothness and roughness, the detailed distribution of surface, surface variations, plans, open, fullness and emptiness, the colors … some initial assumption is already there: it relies on visual approaches to the environment, the natural and artificial forms of tradition and cultural standards, the trends and beliefs. The library building is introverted, dignified and a typological highly ranked form.
