Moving Forward!

The interior spaces do not have a start or an end since the library is circular, and so I organized them to be a library (more quiet) on one side and a community space (more loud) on the other. The kids and teens are in the community space since they are louder while the library side has the adult stacks and private reading spaces.

I am quite pleased with where the project is going. I moved the ramp to start at the south side of the site, on the street, but the main entrance is located at the northwest corner, where a road allows for book drops and handicap parking. I also furthered the transportation infrastructure metaphor, which I really like, and made is so that the planters and green spaces direct movement like vehicles in traffic. People are meant to move through the lines and stop at the circles, much like moving through traffic and stopping at roundabouts.
