The brief title 'Cultural Exchange' steered me into exploring and understanding my heritage. I had the opportunity to explore in this project a subject that was personal to me. My research led me to the design of a library as that is a place I enjoy being in. My journey surprisingly resulted in me relating this project to my Dissertation. In my Dissertation I created an organic waste material that related to this project perfectly as it was made of paper and I used this material to create newspaper wood. I used this material to clad my reading pods that are on the exterior of my building.
