Ellicottville Library by Architectural Resources

Design Brief

The Ellicottville Library has become a significant community resource that supports the literary and educational needs of this thriving resort town. The building has been designed in support of life-long literacy, increased cultural and artistic awareness, and to provide opportunities for personal growth and enrichment.

The site is located on the edge of town and features a lush forested hillside as a backdrop. The wood and stone clad building reflect the character of this idyllic alpine setting while providing a modern, state of the art Library. The centerpiece of the building is a high entry and gallery space connecting the Library and the Community Room.
