Canada Water Library

Canada Water Library stands beside the plaza at Canada Water in Southwark, an inverted-pyramid building by CZWG that opened in 2011 as the centrepiece of the area's regeneration.

Its single large library floor sits at the top of the building beneath rows of skylights, with a café and a 150-seat culture space below. The library runs a packed weekly programme for children and families, from coding clubs to Dungeons and Dragons, and its film club and special screenings are part of that programme.
