Concept:
My approach to this design started with the idea of slope and light. For my precedent library, I studied the Delft University Library of Technology in the Netherlands. A key feature that I wanted to encapture from that library to mine was the slope. Another important factor in my concept is the enhancement of natural light. Since the site is facing South, I wanted to take advantage of the amount of natural sunlight coming in. My library is designed to appear to be opening up to the sun.

Concept Statement:

Books allow readers to escape to other worlds and realities far from our own. They present a journey to us that we follow from title to end page. I wanted to create the same unique experience when building my library. Throughout this project, I ran with the phrase “Never judge a book by its cover.” The cover could be boring, but the context otherworldly. I transformed this phrase into a library, using a primary orthogonal exterior and contrasting it with an organic interior. Allowing parts of the interior to extrude onto the exterior gave my library a hint of mystery and excitement that hooks passersby.  My goal was to create an experience or journey, just like what a book gives you when you pick it up.
