I hope you're right though, as this is a design that would really benefit from quality materials and attention to detail, as the forms themselves aren't particularly interesting.
I love the new library. Looks great inside and outside, it's really fun inside actually and there's a ton of rooms/quiet areas.

But the SPF they used throughout is going to get wrecked real bad.
