In the city of Gifu, Japan, there's a unique public library called 'Minna no Mori' or 'Everyone's Forest'. Unlike typical libraries, it encourages lively conversations and community engagement. Designed by Pritzker Prize-winning architect Toyo Ito, the library boasts a remarkable architectural structure, featuring natural materials like local hinoki wood. It's an open space promoting creativity and interaction among citizens, from children to seniors. This innovative library model challenges the traditional concept of quiet libraries, making it a local landmark loved by the community.
