"Light" is the origin of enlightenment, the source of truth. It spills from the heavens, coalescing at the heart of the library, forming rings of knowledge that ripple outwards like concentric circles. This light not only illuminates every corner of the space but also symbolizes the wisdom and revelation bestowed by the divine, guiding students to find their direction within the vast sea of books. The beams extend outwards in layers, like ripples, reshaping the library's contours and redefining the meaning of learning—knowledge is like an endless circle, perpetually cycling and growing richer, allowing every student who enters this place to draw nourishment under its guidance, to ignite their future, and to find their life made more whole by knowledge.





The library's core design concept is "Light of Knowledge." A beam of light converges from the ceiling at the central point, forming a rounded and warm light column that projects downwards onto the circular service desk, then spreads outwards like ripples, defining different functional zones in layers. This light is not merely a visual focal point; it symbolizes the transmission of truth and the inspiration of wisdom, guiding students to explore, think, and grow along its trajectory.
