“Doorway to Imagination” by Joan Weissman is a floor-design art piece at the Countryside Library. Weissman specializes in terrazzo floor design for public buildings. Her experience as a custom rug designer informs her choice of appropriate color, scale and pattern for large floor surfaces. She collaborates with architects, contractors and public art programs to create functional, attractive floors in a variety of spaces. Characterized by a blend of modern design and traditional craftsmanship, her work reflects a commitment to applied and functional art.

This terrazzo design guides visitors from the entrance into the building with muted shades of green and purple.
