Henley School Library    |  The library is a prominent building in the school which had to be completed to a stringent budget.

The building forms chosen are deliberately rectangular and abstract, to contrast with the predominantly gable roofs of the remainder of the school.

The spacious interior is flooded with natural light from a series of large circular skylights avoiding the need to reduce wall shelving space with windows. Externally, the walls of the library are emphasised with colour and commissioned artworks.
