Seattle's Funky Library

Here is another shot of the Seattle Central Library.  I posted another photo of this building back in March.  You can see it here:

This building is so weird.  I don’t even know how to describe it.  When I looked it up later, the architect couldn’t even put a specific design style on this structure.  Maybe modern contemporary is the best way to describe it.  There are lots of funky angles, bright colors, unusual spaces.  Around every corner, the building design changes to the point that they don’t even go together.  So I felt like I was in a different building when I changed areas within the building, instead of one continuous building.  So my take on this building is that it fits the Seattle culture. 

I took this photo from the 4th floor balcony looking out at the building support structure and the diamond shaped glass exterior wall.  Like I said, funky!!!
