Who Uses AD Library and Why?

At Architecture + Design Library (ADL), we’ve created more than just a library. We’ve built a collaborative hub that brings together designers, makers, homeowners, and curious minds who believe great spaces begin with great ideas. But who actually uses AD Library—and why do they keep coming back?

1. Interior Designers + Architects

For industry professionals, AD Library is a game-changer. Our extensive sample library means they can access up-to-date materials, finishes, and product catalogues in one place. Instead of waiting on reps or juggling disjointed samples, designers can touch, compare, and specify with confidence. Plus, they use our meeting spaces to present ideas to clients or collaborate with others in the field.

Why they love it: It saves time, strengthens presentations, and fosters unexpected collaborations.

2. Homeowners + Renovators

If you're renovating a kitchen, refreshing a bathroom, or building your dream home, AD Library is here to help you make informed design decisions. Whether you're working with a designer or flying solo, we offer inspiration, education, and the tools to get clarity around your vision.

Why they love it: It's empowering to make decisions with support, not pressure. Plus, seeing real samples makes all the difference.

3. Tradespeople + Builders

Our space is often used by builders and trades who want to ensure the finish selections are right—before things go on site. They come in with clients, meet with designers, or drop in to confirm product details.

Why they love it: It reduces costly errors, keeps projects running smoothly, and builds stronger client trust.

4. Suppliers + Brands

Product reps and suppliers use AD Library to connect with the local design community, display their products, and host educational events. It’s a chance for brands to be seen and discovered in an authentic, practical setting.

Why they love it: It’s a curated, credible way to reach both professionals and decision-makers.

5. Entrepreneurs + Remote Workers

You don’t have to be in the design industry to use AD Library. Our co-working desks, meeting rooms, and inspiring environment make it a favourite for local creatives, freelancers, and remote workers. Whether you're hosting a client or just need a break from your dining table, we’ve got you covered.

Why they love it: The vibe is professional yet relaxed—and there’s always someone interesting to chat with by the coffee machine.

Why It All Works

AD Library thrives because we believe in connection, education, and inspiration. It's not just what you can access here—it’s who you meet, what you learn, and the confidence you walk out with.

So whether you’re designing a home, growing a business, or just need a space that sparks ideas—you belong here.
