Wayfinder Archive

This 7,000 sq. ft. library and archive in Cleveland, Ohio, is designed as an immersive space where maps and stories of exploration converge. Inspired by the ways people navigate both physical and personal journeys, the design fosters interaction, discovery, and preservation. Visitors are invited to engage with historical and contemporary narratives through tactile and digital experiences, encouraging a deeper connection to place, memory, and adventure. By blending traditional archiving with interactive storytelling, the space serves as both a collection of knowledge and an evolving map of collective experience.
