Best Project, Cultural/Worship: Winter Park Library and Events Center
Described by renowned architect Sir David Adjaye as a ”21st century prototype of a multi-purpose knowledge campus in the public realm,” the 55,000-sq-ft Winter Park Library and Events Center features multiple interactive areas, 120-seat performance and education space and grand ballroom that can seat 250 people at tables or 316 theater-style.
Brasfield & Gorrie led construction of the three structures built on raised belvedere, designed to create a timeless community staple for the City of Winter Park with arched, rose-pigmented concrete structures able to withstand hurricanes while providing ample natural light and sweeping views of Lake Mendsen.
