Interior Designers Selected
for Library
In May, an award-winning,
multi-discipline interior design firm, Eva
Maddox Associates, Inc. of Chicago was selected to design the interior
of the new main library building. Eva Maddox and members of her staff
began meeting with library staff to determine space and equipment needs
within the new library building. They also held focus group discussions
with both teens and adults in the community. Eva
Maddox Associates, Inc. will be responsible
for selecting color schemes, floorcoverings, and equipment for the new,
three-story main library building. They will put special emphasis on areas
like the lobby, meeting rooms, children's storytime room and exploratorium,
and the silent reading room. Eva Maddox has been in business more than
30 years, with more than 70 awards for her work. Her creations have been
featured in 16 books and more than 60 magazines and journals.
