"I designed both libraries to spark imagination and bring a little joy to an everyday moment."The book library combines recognizable Walpole landmarks with Michelle's signature use of bold color, playful circles, and dynamic composition. The letters of "Walpole" become part architecture and part sculpture, while miniature books invite visitors to look closer and discover new details each time they visit.The Hot Wheels Library, Inspired by the former Walpole Mall, now The Link Walpole, the toy car library transforms familiar storefronts into a colorful landscape where toy cars become part of the artwork itself.
