Goldstein Library
SARASOTA, FL | 2016
The Alfred R. Goldstein Library at the Ringling College of Art and Design is a state-of-the-art building that seeks to transform the way that users engage with library collections and services. Architecturally stunning, it is an active physical and digital destination on the Ringling College campus – an intellectual, cultural, social, creative, and technological hub alive with the ebb and flow of students, faculty, staff and visitors.

A Design-Forward Library of the Future
After carefully studying the needs of students, faculty and librarians, the architectural design team set out to create a contemporary building that would greet visitors and serve as a comfortable, familiar space.
Devotion to Quality Craftsmanship
