ST. LOUIS COUNTY LIBRARY INDIAN TRAILS BRANCH
Bond Architects was awarded the Phase 1B - Part 1 projects for the St. Louis County Library (SLCL) Master Plan. These projects included renovations and an addition to four branch locations – Rock Road, Indian Trails, Weber Road and Jamestown Bluffs. The Indian Trails Branch incorporated aspects of the existing building’s architecture, like wood columns and deep overhangs above windows, into the renovation transformation. The reoriented branch provides better visibility into all areas.
Visitors to the newly renovated Indian Trails Branch will immediately notice the new entrance, which features a plaza and new sliding doors. Inside the branch, LED lighting and new windows help the space feel brighter. Community input helped determine many of the amenities included in the renovations. Some of the highlights include an expanded Children's Area; a business center with fax, copy and scanning machines; a large community meeting room; a café area with vending machines and tables; two private study rooms; a quiet reading area, and a dedicated teen area.
