Black cover of a book with gold writing that says St John's College Library and Study Centre Wright & Wright

Within the sensitive historic context of St John’s, certain key concepts shape and structure the architecture of the new Study Centre.  Ideas about thresholds, connections, ambiguity, the play of light, the nature of materials, sustainability, relationships between old and new, craft and making coalesce to define and enrich the new building.
