Town of Lantana Public Library Renovation

The updated design introduces bright, engaging interiors that reflect the community’s identity and environment. Throughout the space, vibrant flooring, curated artwork, and natural light create a playful, welcoming atmosphere. Surfboards suspended from the ceiling, beach photography, and wave-themed signage offer a subtle nod to the relaxed, coastal lifestyle of South Florida.

A custom mural anchors the teen zone, featuring bold colors, tropical graphics, and integrated media displays. This area includes digital workstations and a DJ controller to encourage creative exploration.

Key upgrades include ADA-compliant restrooms, a glass-enclosed teen zone, a children’s room with computer stations, a private study room, an adult reading area, and a special collection room. The checkout area was reconfigured for improved visibility and ease of use.
