Inspired by the design work of local resident McFadden Bharley, we co-produced a series of furniture elements in the form of B-U-L-T-E- the community’s nickname for Noordgesig. The components are made from shutter-ply, vinyl and cushioning and have been treated with colours complimentary to the interior look and feel of the library. The letters include recesses for storage and pull-out seating, and standing letters provide shelving. The installation is situated on the top floor – study area, which is intended to be open to the community 24 hours a day, thus increasing the community’s access to education and quiet space.
