Special Features: Augustana College

This section of the Library Design Showcase highlights special architectural elements and unique works of art. They won’t be right for or available at every library—but they may be right for yours.

The renovation of Augustana College’s Mikkelsen Library in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, created a study area with a fireplace and three wood reliefs by artist John Henry Peters: “Knowledge” (bottom, in walnut), “Inspiration” (middle, mahogany), and “Understanding” (top, maple).
