翻新后的小區中心暨Nakamachi圖書館迅速成為東京西面小鎮小平市的焦點。白色長方形金屬屏風組成棱角柱體，包裹著主建筑的結構。一塊塊巨型落地玻璃拼砌出建筑外觀，引入大量自然光，看上去格外晶瑩剔透。陽光竄入小區中心的每一角，令地下的咖啡廳、講堂與二樓及三樓的圖書館更加開豁明朗。地下室寛躺的排舞室，配以一整面玻璃幕墻，外面的樓梯將參觀人士帶回地面。

The newly-renovated community centre and Nakamachilibrary quickly becomes the stunner of Kodaira city, a smalltown in the west Tokyo. Rectangular white metal screens tessellate the exterior of the angled columns, enclosed inside is the main structure predominantly made of light coloured concrete and glass. Huge glass panels comprise the faceted facade of the building, giving it a crystalline exterior and simultaneously maximising the entrance of natural light. Sunlight permeates every corner of the community centre, from the cafe and lecture room on the ground fl oor, to the library on the second and third fl oor.Basement features a spacious studio space, the glass curtain wall opens to the stairs that lead guests back to the ground fl oor entrance.
