On October 7, 2024, Beijing City Library just won the "2024 Public Library Award" from the International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions (IFLA) and set three world records: The first library with a 25,000 square meter super-open reading environment. The first building with a super-high load-bearing glass curtain wall structure. The largest collection of books and the most intelligent library in the world.
LOPO China is very honored to participate in this project. LOPO architectural terracotta become an integral part of this special project and add luster to the building facade. Our terracotta panels are cut and assembled into triangular columns, which are sophisticatedly stacked outside the building's glass curtain wall, presenting a unique visual effect.
