River Center Library, Baton Rouge, USA
River Center Library, Baton Rouge, USA
The Baton Rouge River Center, formerly called the Riverside Centroplex is comprised of five main facilities; the Arena, the Exhibition Hall, the Ballroom, Theater for Performing Arts and the River Center Library. Designed by John Desmond, the Riverside Centroplex was conceived as a chain of buildings that would create a framework around the Old State Capitol. These buildings share a similar aesthetic that is both simple and stark, allowing one to appreciate the significance of the Old State Capitol. With closest proximity, the existing River Center Library frames the Old State Capitol with its interior atrium. Built in the 1970’s, the library carries with it many of that era’s unfavourable traits in it design, particularly an introverted monumentality that fails to effectively connect to the urban context.
