Canada Water Library

[squirmelia]

The second place I visited during Open House Weekend was a library: Canada Water Library.

It is admittedly open to the public most days anyway, but I was drawn to it during Open House, as it was on the way to other locations I intended to go to.

I think about buildings more during Open House Weekend, I think about architecture and space, and notice different details that I would not normally. I don't feel so self-conscious taking photos in libraries, in department stores, and so on.

Canada Water Library is only a few years old, which is surprising, as a lot of libraries have closed in recent years. It is an unusual shape and sits next to the water, and there is a café at the bottom, where you can eat cake and drink coffee.
