The new Vanuatu National Library and National Archives building
The design of the building was inspired by traditional Melanesian style that keeps with the design of the Vanuatu Cultural Centre, creating the Vanuatu National Cultural Council Complex. This complex is dedicated to the history and culture of Vanuatu.
