The Oksoo Elementary School Library, a public elementary school, is an old library that was built more than 30 years ago. The school wanted a bright, playground-like library that deviates from the old and outdated look. In order to overcome the stuffiness of the low ceiling, it was remade into an exposed ceiling. In the playground-like library space, the boundaries between playing and reading are ambiguous. Considering that the lighting and ceiling play an important role in creating the atmosphere, the ceiling is painted sky-blue, and the lighting products were selected depending on the space.
