KAI was selected to provide architectural and interior design services on the Reby Cary Youth Library located in Fort Worth Texas. The 8,000 SF facility will provide a well-rounded selection of informational books targeted to children's educational and curricular-support needs. The Reby Cary Youth Library will provide open spaces for exploration, collaboration, socialization and learning. The project will also include such amenities as a sensory garden, maker space (which will utilize technology for creative activities), and study rooms. In addition to the core services provided, KAI is responsible for coordinating the civil, landscape, structural, mechanical, electrical, plumbing engineering, fire protection design, AVL/technology, and cost estimating services through our consultants. BIM technology was utilized to assist in the Owner's visualization of the designs development. The technology was specifically incorporated for conceptual renderings during the schematic design and design development phases. We also plan to utilize BIM technology during the construction document phase to assist in systems coordination with other disciplines. The design team has been working closely with an award-winning artist to infuse art into the building design, which will allow the Owner to reduce costs in the long run.
