Al Safa Library
Al Safa Art & Design Library, which originally opened in 1989, reintroduced its space to the public in March 2019. It is designed to reflect the Dubai Public Libraries’ purpose as prominent centres for knowledge and culture in the emirate, and to support its National Reading Strategy.
In its design, the library embodies Friedrich Nietzsche’s concept of creating quiet, spacious and beautiful urban spaces for reflection that express the sublimity of contemplation and aloofness. It is home to modern multi-purpose rooms and work areas, as well as a dedicated children’s library that has been designed to engage the younger generation with an activity room, a media room, a book room, a piano and an interactive digital wall, green wall and feature wall.
