Temple University by Staff
The upcoming School & Campus Design Issue of Landscape Architect and Specifier News saw many firms submit their projects for feature consideration. This project was not chosen for a Feature in the issue, but we at LandscapeArchitect.com thought the project deserved to be showcased online . . . Located in Philadelphia at Temple University, Charles Library is one of the country's most modern and significant new library constructions. The library fulfills the architect's intent to spur imagination and inspire excellence. Key to the building's striking design is more than 37,000 square feet of black granite. Vertical sections of the granite in a split-face finish clad the library's solid base and coordinate with the existing campus landscape. Black granite also provides a key design element for the building's green roof, where it adorns the fa????ade and coping. A beautiful outcome for a challenging design was accomplished at every stage of the project by the skilled, well-coordinated team. Today, Charles Library is a centerpiece of Temple University
