Comments
Shellharbour’s Warilla Library opened in 2019, replacing the old Warilla branch with a new 998m² building. The library’s eye-catching, iconic design quickly became a local landmark, drawing residents into a welcoming indoor-outdoor space. Situated adjacent Warilla’s shopping centre and the park, the library is convenient and accessible. Its light, airy coastal ambience delivers on the community’s aspirations.
Strong cross-organisational collaboration ensured the project’s success.
