Architect Curt Moody and engineer Howard E. Nolan, founders of Moody- Nolan architect firm, designed the Martin Luther King Branch Library as a redesign of the Columbus Metropolitan Library Brand. At 18,700 square feet, it has a changing art gallery and many levels of spacial organization for lounge space, utilizing natural light and transparency. On top of functioning as a library, it is also used as a community center and gathering place. The building has three main sections, referencing Martin Luther King and other civil rights leaders. The building has a stone exterior and stone patterned glass. What I think is cool is that Moody is president of the largest black-owned architecture firm and got to do a project honoring Martin Luther King.
