The library was inspired by the hanging gardens of Babylon; one of the cradles of civilization and agriculture. The library looks to the future by integrating the natural systems of water, vegetation and energy into its architecture. It embodies and symbolizes the self-sufficiency of all people and cultures, as well as the inter connectedness of all humanity, creatures and nature. It embodies the preservation of the world’s natural resources and methods of uniting peoples, by promoting self-sufficiency through permaculture & top soil renewal-replacing industrial annual crop agriculture, as well as energy and water resource management. The library exemplifies unity through knowledge and the many possible ways to keep the dialogue open and keep the planets remaining resources and cultures thriving.
