COSTS OF CANCER TREATMENT ARE LIKELY TO INCREASE AS NEW, MORE ADVANCED AND MORE EXPENSIVE TREATMENT OPTIONS ARE ADOPTED AS STANDARDS OF CARE. FINANCIAL BURDEN OF CANCER TREATMENT WILL ONLY BECOME MORE OF AN STRESSOR ON FAMILIES AND THEIR LOVED ONES.1

PROJECT STATEMENT:

THE TREATMENT OF CATASTROPHIC ILLNESS OFTEN CAUSES FINANCIAL AND EMOTIONAL HARDSHIP ON THE FAMILY UNIT. BY PROVIDING A CHILDREN AND ADOLESCENTS DAY CENTER IN CLOSE PROXIMITY TO A TREATMENT FACILITY, WHERE CHILDREN AND ADOLESCENTS CAN RECOVER IN THE CARE OF MEDICAL PROFESSIONALS IN THE ABSENCE OF THEIR GUARDIANS, THE FINANCIAL PRESSURE PUT ON PARENTS IS ALLEVIATED AND PATIENT HEALING IS ENCOURAGED.

“UNDERSTANDING THE DELIVERY OF QUALITY HEALTHCARE INTRINSICALLY LINKED TO THE ABILITY TO PROVIDE A SAFE WORKING ENVIRONMENT FOR 23 STAFF AND FAMILIES.”

PRECEDENT ANALYSIS CONCLUSIONS SCHOOL PROGRAMS SCHOOLS IN PEDIATRIC CANCER CENTERS APPEAR TO BE MOST EFFECTIVE WHEN CHILDREN OF DIFFERING AGES CAN LEARN IN SEPARATE ENVIRONMENTS. THESE CLASSROOMS/STUDY ROOMS ARE GEARED TOWARDS THOSE AGES THROUGH USE OF COLOR, STRATEGIC ASSEMBLY OF FURNITURE AND AVAILABLE RESOURCES. AGE-APPROPRIATE COLORS AND AN ABUNDANCE OF LIGHT ENHANCES LEARNING AND STIMULATION. 19

THERAPEUTIC RECREATION CHILDREN LEARN COPING SKILLS NECESSARY TO FACE THEIR ILLNESS DURING THE DIAGNOSIS AND TREATMENT PROCESSES THROUGH RECREATIONAL PLAY. THE SUCCESSFUL COMPONENTS OF PLAY FACILITIES THE CASE STUDIES SHOWED WERE GEARED TOWARDS AGE-APPROPRIATE ACTIVITIES, NATURE-BASED COMPONENTS AND SOCIALIZING AREAS. ADDED PROGRAMS INCLUDING MUSIC, PET, ART AND MOVEMENT THERAPY. THE SPACES FOR THESE ACTIVITIES ACCURATELY REFLECT THE MOOD AND FEEL TO BE DESIRED.

RESOURCES AND COUNSELING PRIVATE COUNSELING ROOMS ARE REQUIRED IN SUCH FACILITIES. THEY SHOULD BE LARGE ENOUGH

TO AVOID ANXIOUSNESS, BUT SMALL ENOUGH TO KEEP THE PATIENT FROM FEELING ISOLATED. WARM, NEUTRAL COLORS IN A CLIMATE-CONTROLLED ROOM INSTILL COMFORT AND RELAXATION DURING STRESSFUL SITUATIONS. A RESOURCE CENTER FOR EDUCATION ON SPECIFIC ILLNESSES AND COMMUNITY AWARENESS IS IMPORTANT.

DAILY CARE

A COMFORTABLE ENVIRONMENT FOR CHILDREN NOT RECEIVING TREATMENT AND THEIR GUARDIAN CANNOT BE PRESENT IS VERY IMPORTANT FOR RECOVERY. HEALTHCARE DAY CENTERS PROVIDE THE NECESSARY MEDICAL CARE FOR MEDICALLY FRAGILE CHILDREN TO GET THE CARE THEY NEED. THE FACILITIES MIRROR THE NEEDS OF THE CHILDREN.

FOR PROPOSED CARE FACILITY: SCHOOL PROGRAMS

+MULTIPLE CLASSROOMS FOR VARYING AGE-GROUPS +BRIGHTLY-COLORED CHILDREN'S CLASSROOMS WITH SHORT, ROUND TABLES AND CHAIRS FOR GROUP INTERACTION AND LEARNING. +ADOLESCENT CLASSROOMS AIMED TOWARDS MORE INDIVIDUALIZED LEARNING WITH ONE GROUP TABLE AND SEVERAL SMALLER DESKS. +TECHNOLOGY IN EVERY CLASSROOM +AN OFFICE FOR TEACHING STAFF NEAR CLASSROOMS +NATURAL LIGHT TO LOWER BLOOD PRESSURE, DECREASE ANXIETY AND ENHANCE LEARNING.

PROGRAMMING OVERVIEW WHEN A CHILD IS DISAGNOSED AND TREATED FOR A CHRONIC ILLNESS, THE FINANCIAL BURDEN CAN BE CATASTROPHIC ON THE FAMILY. A SPECIALIZED CHILDREN’S DAY CENTER, IN CLOSE PROXIMITY TO CHILDREN’S HEALTHCARE OF ATLANTA, ALLOWS PARENTS AND GUARDIANS TO RETURN TO WORK, KNOWING THEIR CHILD IS IN THE SAFETY OF MEDICAL PROFESSIONALS. THE CENTER CATERS TO CHILDREN 0-18 YEARS OF AGE WHOM HAVE RECENTLY BEEN DIAGNOSED, GOING THROUGH TREATMENT OR RECENTLY REMISSED. TREATMENT FOR ILLNESS IS NOT ADMINISTERED AT THE CENTER, ONLY SYMPTOMS ARE TREATED. CHILDREN AND ADOLESCENTS CAN COME TO THE CENTER AT ANY TIME DURING THEIR TREATMENT TO PARTICIPATE IN RECREATIONAL ACTIVITIES, THERAPY SESSIONS, COUNSELING, RELAXATION, WATCH MOVIES, READ AND KEEP UP WITH SCHOOL STUDIES. THE CHILDREN’S CENTER IS OPEN FROM 6:30 AM TO 7 PM, WITH AN ON-CALL NURSE AT ALL TIMES THAT CAN STAY WITH CHILDREN WHOM MAY NEED TO STAY LONGER. A 7-MINUTE SHUTTLE SERVICE OFFERS TRANSPORTATION TO CHILDREN’S HEALTHCARE OF ATLANTA-EGELSTON, WHERE CHILDREN CAN PARTICIPATE IN LARGER, HOSPITAL COORDINATED EVENTS. THE NURSERY IS FULLY EQUIPPED TO CARE FOR EVEN THE YOUNGEST PATIENTS. CLASSROOMS ARE SPLIT INTO THREE AGE-GROUPS: K-5, GRADES 6-8, AND GRADES 9-12. CHILDREN AGES 12 AND UNDER HAVE A PERSONALIZED CHILDREN’S THEATER WITH PLUSH, CHILD-SIZED LOUNGE SEATS AND FUN PILLOWS THROWN THROUGHOUT THE ROOM. ADOLESCENTS CAN TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE TEEN LOUNGE, WHERE ONLY 13+ YEARS OF AGE ARE ALLOWED TO ENTER. GAMING STATIONS, TELEVISION, BOOKS AND PROGRAMMED ACTIVITIES WILL KEEP TEENS ENGAGED IN A FAMILIAR, AGE-APPROPRIATE ENVIRONMENT. THE OVERALL LIVELY SPIRIT OF THE FACILITY WILL ENCOURAGE HEALING, RAISE SPIRITS AND REDUCE STRESS.

PROGRAMMING FF&E

PROGRAMMING ADJACENCY MATRIX

PROGRAMMING CONCLUSION AS SEEN IN THE SPACE ALLOCATION CHART, THE REQUIRED MINIMUM SQUARE FOOTAGE FOR THE PROGRAMS ON THE FIRST FLOOR IS 8, 146 SF, WITH 1,629 SF OF THAT REQUIRED FOR CIRCULATION. THE REQUIRED SQUARE FOOTAGE FOR THE SECOND FLOOR IS 5,425 SF WITH 1085 SF REQUIRED FOR CIRCULATION. THE BUILDING CURRENTLY FULFILLS THE PROGRAMMING SPACE REQUIREMENTS. THERE IS A LOT OF AVAILABLE SPACE TO BE CREATIVE WITH. ALL SPACE REQUIREMENTS HAVE BEEN MET, BUT AN ELEVATOR MUST BE ADDED.

DESIGN GOALS:

+ENCOURAGE HEALING AND HAPPINESS IN USERS. +REDUCE STRESS AMONG USERS AND STAFF THROUGH A VARIETY OF SPATIAL OPTIONS, SUCH AS LOUNGE SEATING, QUIET NOOKS, ENGAGING SPACES, ETC. +PROVIDE A STIMULATING AND VIBRANT ENVIRONMENT THAT USERS WANT TO RETURN TO. +TO EDUCATE AND BRING AWARENESS OF ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERNS THROUGH REUSE PRACTICES. +ENCOURAGE DIALOGUE BETWEEN USERS AND STAFF THROUGH SPATIAL EXPRESSION. USE SEATING AREAS AS OPPORTUNITY TO CREATE FLEXIBLE ENVIRONMENTS THAT CHANGE WITH NEEDS. +TO CREATE A BARRIER-FREE, UNIVERSAL AND ACCEPTING INTERIOR ENVIRONMENT.

STAKEHOLDER BENEFITS:

+THROUGHOUT THE DESIGN PHASE, REQUIREMENTS FOR CHILD-APPROPRIATELY SIZED FIXTURES IS MANDATORY, BUT WITHOUT IGNORING ADOLESCENTS AND THE ADULT STAFF THAT WORKS THERE EVERYDAY. THIS IS ADVENTAGEOUS FOR NOT ONLY THE USERS, BUT ALSO THE EMPLOYEES. +BY REUSING EXISTING MATERIALS AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE, CONSTRUCTION SHOULD MAKE LESS OF AN IMPACT ON THE ENVIRONMENT. +INVESTORS WILL SEE LESS MONEY BEING FORKED INTO THE PROJECT THROUGH CAREFUL PROGRAMMING AND ONLY INVESTING IN WHAT IS REQUIRED. CLEVERLY REUSING EXISTING MATERIALS WILL AID IN COST. +THE DESIGNER IS ABLE TO CREATIVELY TAKE AN ALREADY SUCCESSFUL BUILDING AND MAKE IT BETTER THROUGH PERFORMANCE, MATERIAL SELECTION AND CAREFUL ALLOCATION OF SPACE TO BENEFIT ALL STAKEHOLDERS IN THE BEST WAY POSSIBLE. +EDUCATING THE COMMUNITY OF ENVIRONMENTAL BUILDING PRACTICES CAN HELP NOT ONLY OUR CURRENT COMMUNITY, BUT ALSO FUTURE COMMUNITIES. BUYING LOCAL PRODUCTS AND EMPLOYING LOCAL WORKERS REDUCES ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT BY REDUCING EMBODIED ENERGY COSTS.

CONCEPT DEVELOPMENT CONCEPT AND LOGO DESIGN

THERE IS MORE TO LIFE THAN THE FUTURE AND DISCOVERING YOUR DESTINATION. THE IDEA THAT LIFE IS A JOURNEY TEACHES US TO EMBRACE EACH DAY AND LIVE LIFE TO ITS FULLIEST. THE CONCEPT OF THE RASPEN CENTER WILL BE BASED ON ENJOYING YOURSELF TODAY RATHER THAN FEARING TOMORROW. A CHEERFUL AND INSPIRING DAY, FULL OF COLOR AND REVITALIZATION HELPS IMPROVE THE OUTLOOK ON CURRENT SITUATIONS AND FOCUS ON HAVING FUN TODAY AND NOT WORRYING ABOUT WHERE THE ROAD TAKES US, FOR THE DESTINATION MAY BE UNKNOWN.

CONCEPT DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM CONCEPTS AND LOGO DESIGN

RECREATION IS A VITAL PART OF RECOVERY IN CHILDREN WITH CHRONIC ILLNESS. THE CONCEPT FOR THE INNERGY RECREATION CENTER DERIVES FROM THE IDEA THAT PLAY IS IMPORTANT FOR ALL LIVING BEINGS. HUMANS HAVE A NATURAL ATTRACTION TO ALL THINGS LIVING, THUS THE SPACE WILL BE FILLED WITH LIVELY AND EXPERIENTAL ELEMENTS.

THE CONCEPT FOR THE CAFETERIA COMES FROM THE IDEA THAT WATER IS REFRESHING AND RENEWING. TO ENCOURAGE A HEALTHY RECOVERY, A NOURISHING DIET IS REQUIRED AND WATER IS THE ESSENCE OF LIFE. A FRESH LOOK AT REQUIRED NOURISHMENT REVOLVES AROUND BEGINNING WITH WATER.

7 11

THERE IS NOTHING MORE PURE THAN A CHILD’S IMAGINATION. THE CONCEPT FOR THE CHILDREN’S THEATER WILL BE STOPPING A MOMENT IN TIME ALONG THE JOURNEY IN ORDER TO IMAGINE, MAKE BELIEVE AND ENJOY LIFE AS A CHILD. TAKING THE CHILD OUT OF THE EARTHYL REALM AND INTO A WORLD WHERE ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE.

THE CONCEPT FOR THE TEEN LOUNGE WILL ENGAGE THE ADOLESCENT MIND THROUGH THE EXPLORATION OF TRAVEL AND DISCOVERY. THROUGHOUT JOURNEYS COME REALIZATIONS AND OPENING NEW DOORS. THE TEEN LOUNGE WILL OPEN MINDS AND EVOKE CURIOSITY THROUGH THE EXPLORATION OF TRAVEL,

THE CONCEPT OF THE LIBRARY WILL BE EVOKING CHILDREN’S CURIOUSITY. ENCOURAGING CHILDREN TO ASK QUESTIONS AND BE A PART OF THE DISCOVERY WHICH IS BENEFICIAL TO LEARNING.

CONCEPT DEVELOPMENT ELEMENT AND PRINCIPLE DIRECTION

18 19

SHAPE: INTERPLAY BETWEEN LARGE INTERLOCKING FORMS AND VOIDS AND POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE SPACE WILL REINFORCE THE NATURAL EXISTENCE OF ELEMENTS. FORM: HIGHLY ORGANIC AND MODULAR FORMS THROUGHOUT THE SPACE WILL MIMIC NATURE. MOOD: A LIFE-FILLED ENVIRONMENT THAT LENDS TO HIGHLY COLORED ELEMENTS CREATES A VIBRANT FEELING. ORGANIZATION: SMALL GROUPINGS OF ELEMENTS TO CREATE ONE LARGE COHESIVE ORGANISM THAT REINFORCES THE NATURE CONCEPT.

SHAPE: OVERALL FLOWING AND CURVED SHAPE WITH RIGID STRUCTURES THROUGHOUT, SIMILAR TO A STREAM WINDING THROUGH RIVER BOULDERS. FORM: OPEN TO BEING MOLDED AND TRANSFORMED, MUCH LIKE WATER IN DIFFERENT VESSELS. MOOD: SINCE A CAFETERIA IS ALREADY A LIVELY PLACE, MORE CALMING AND SOOTHING ELEMENTS WILL BE INSTILL TO HELP CALM THE MOOD OF THE SPACE. ORGANIZATION: SMALLER PODS OF ELEMENTS WITHIN ONE LARGER SPACE THAT RESEMBLE MOLECULES CLUMPED TOGETHER. SYSTEMATIC IN SERVICE AREA.

SHAPE: ONE LARGE, SEEMINGLY RIGID SPACE, WITH ONE MAIN FOCAL POINT AND FEW SMALLER ONES. REPETITIVE, BUT UNIQUE SEATING ARRANGEMENTS. FORM: INTERACTIVE BILLOWING ELEMENTS TO ENCOURAGE IMAGINATION. INTERPLAY BETWEEN LIGHT AND DARK TO CREATE CHARACTERS WITH THE SPACE. MOOD: IMAGINATIVE AND DREAM-LIKE ORGANIZATION: SMALL NODES AND POCKETS FOR PRIVATE DREAMING/GAZING AT THE SCREEN WITHIN ONE LARGE SPACE.

SHAPE: STRUCTURAL, BUT FREE TO BE ALTERED, MUCH LIKE A TRAVELING EXPERIENCE. FORM: TRANSPARENCY AMONG ELEMENTS TO EXPERIENCE LAYERS OF ENJOYMENT. MOOD: FREEDOM TO MAKE CHOICES IN A CONTROL ENVIRONMENT. ADOLESCENTS SHOULD FEEL AS THEY ARE IN A SPACE THEY CAN MAKE THEIR OWN RESPONSIBLE DECISIONS IN. ORGANIZATION: MUCH LIKE FOLLOWING AN ITINERARY, STRUCTURED FROM THE OUTSIDE, YET FLEXIBLE ON THE INSIDE.

SHAPE: BOLD, OUTSTANDING ELEMENTS WITH SOFTER, LESS INTIMIDATING SHAPES SURROUNDING. FORM: INTERESTINGLY SHAPED FORMS THAT ENCOURAGE CHILDREN TO ASK WHY AND HOW THIS WAS CREATED. MOOD: CALMING AND INSPIRING ORGANIZATION: REPETITIVE, WITH POCKETS OF INTEREST INTERMINGLED, EVOKING CURIOUSITY WITHIN.

CONCEPTPROGRAM DEVELOPMENT CONCEPT NARRATIVES 34

THE INNERGY RECREATION CENTER PROVIDES A UNIQUE OPPORTUNITY TO CAPTURE THE ESSENCE OF THE OVERALL CONCEPT OF LIVING FOR TODAY ALONG THE JOURNEY AND NOT FOCUSING ON THE DESTINATION. THE RECREATION CENTER WILL FOCUS ON THE INSTANCE OF LIFE AND THE CONNECTION AND NEED FOR ALL THINGS LIVING. THIS REITERATES LIVING IN THE MOMENT, BECAUSE LIVING BEINGS ARE PERISHABLE, THUS WE SHOULD ENJOY THEM AT THIS MOMENT. THE VIBRANT AND ENERGETIC ASYMMETRICAL CENTER WILL BE FILLED WITH EXCITING ACTIVITIES FOR DIFFERENT AGE GROUPS, WITH FIXUTRES AND FURNISHINGS THAT ACCOMMODATE THOSE AGES AND GROUPED AT APPROPRIATE SOCIAL DISTANCES. THERE WILL BE REPETITION IN THROUGH TEXTURE AND VARIETY IN SEATING AND ORGANIZATION. FURNISHINGS WILL BE INTEGRATED WITHIN CURVED FORMS THAT LEAD THE EYE THROUGHOUT THE SPACE. THE CENTER IS LARGE AND UTILIZES ACCESS, COMMUNICATION BETWEEN OTHER PROGRAMS, DAYLIGHTING AND NATURAL VENTILATION THROUGH OPERABLE WINDOWS. THE SPACE WILL BE FLEXIBLE AND ADAPTABLE TO ALLOW FOR VARYING EVENTS THROUGHOUT THE YEAR; FURNITURE ON CASTERS, MOVEABLE PARTITIONS, ETC. THROUGH STRUCTURE AND APPLIED PATTERNS AT A REDUCED SCALE, UNIQUE TEXTURES WITH LAYERS OF RHYTHM WILL BE CREATED. FORMS WILL BE LARGE WITH CONTRASTING COLORS TO CREATE VISUAL STIMULATION FOR THE VIEWER. THE COMBINED ELEMENTS WILL CREATE A VIBRANT AND ENERGETIC SPACE FOR THE CHILDREN SO THEY CAN PUSH THEIR WORRIES AWAY FOR A MOMENT AND LIVE FOR TODAY AND SIMPLY BE A KID.

NOURISHMENT IS IMPORTANT FOR EVERYONE, BUT ESPECIALLY SO IN THOSE WHOM ALREADY HAVE A WEAKEND IMMUNE SYSTEM AND RELY ON THE APPROPRIATE BALANCE OF ENERGY TO AID IN THEIR RECOVERY. THE WELL SPRING CAFETERIA WAS CHOSEN AS A POINT OF INTEREST BECAUSE THIS NOURISHMENT FOR MEDICALLY SENSITIVE CHILDREN IS SO IMPORTANT. THE CONCEPT THAT WATER IS THE LIFE OF ALL BEING WILL POUR THROUGHOUT THE SPACE. WITH AGEAPPROPRIATE SEATING AND ACCESSIBLE FLEXIBILITY, VISUAL GROUPING WILL BE CREATED TO PROVIDE UNITY WITH VARIETY. WHILE FURNISHING WILL BE REGULATED AND CONTROLLED IN THE SPACE, THE APPLIED AND STRUCTURAL PATTERNS WILL CREATE A SOOTHING RHYTHM TO BREAK UP THE MONOTONY OF SEATING ARRANGEMENTS. VOID WILL BE USED TO REVEAL FORMS WHERE UNIQUE ACTIVITIES TAKE PLACE, SUCH AS THE SERVICE LINE, WARE RETURN, STAFF AREA AND DRINK STATION. THE OVERALL PROPORTION OF THE SPACE WILL REQUIRE THAT NO ONE AREA BE SIGNIFICANTLY MORE IMPORTANT THAN ANY OTHER, AS NOT TO INSTILL DOMINANCE OR OVERWHELMING FEELINGS IN THE CHILDREN WHILE DINING. FOCAL POINTS WILL BE CONTROLLED THROUGH COLOR, FORM AND RELATIONSHIP RATHER THAN SIZE. THE WELCOMING ENVIRONMENT OF THE WELLSPRING CAFETERIA WILL LEND TO ITS CONCEPT THAT WATER IS ESSENTIAL FOR LIFE AND WELL-BEING.

THE CHILDREN’S THEATER PROVIDES A SPACE WHERE KIDS CAN LET GO AND DREAM, THROUGH VISUAL STIMULATION AND CREATIVITY PROVOKING INTERACTIONS. THE SPACE WILL BE FILLED WITH FLEXIBLE FORMS AND ORGANIZATION, AS TO ALLOW FOR CHILDREN TO MOLD THE ROOM THEY WANT IT TO BE, MUCH LIKE THEIR IMAGINATION. LIGHT-WEIGHT, MODULAR SEATING WILL ALLOW CHILDREN TO PUSH AND MOVE THEIR SEATING AROUND THE ROOM TO ACHIEVE THE PERFECT VIEWING DISTANCE. THIS CONTROL OVER SEATING IMMEDIATELY PROVIDES A TRUSTING SPACE WHERE THEY CAN RELEASE TENSION. FOCUS WILL BE ON THE SCREEN AND THIS WILL BE ACHIEVED THROUGH PATTERN AND REPETITION TOWARDS THE SCREEN. MOST OF THIS WILL BE APPLIED VISUAL PATTERN. THERE WILL BE LITTLE STRUCTURAL ADDITIONS TO THE ROOM TO KEEP IT SAFE AND ACCESSIBLE DURING MOVIE VIEWING WHEN LIGHT MAY BE DIM FROM THE SOFT LIGHTING. MOST OF THE VISUAL COMPONENTS WILL REMAIN LOW-CONTRAST TO KEEP THE FOCUS ON THE SCREEN. ACOUSTICAL PANELS AND MATERIALS WILL BE UTILIZED TO ENHANCE THE AUDIAL PROJECTION. THE ABILITY TO CREATE THEIR OWN DREAM-WORLD ALLOWS CHILDREN TO ENJOY WHERE THEY ARE ON THEIR JOURNEY AND FORGET ABOUT STRESS AND WORRIES IN THEIR LIFE.

TEENAGERS ARE A UNIQUE GROUP OF INDIVIDUALS, EVEN MORE SO WHEN THEY HAPPEN TO BE FACED WITH A CHALLENGING LIFE SITUATION. PROVIDING A SPACE WHERE THEY CAN FEEL AS THOUGH THEY ARE INDEED TEENAGERS AND NOT JUST CANCER PATIENTS, ALLOWS THEM TO EXPLORE THEIR OWN IDENTITY AND ENJOY THE BEAUTIFUL PERSON THAT THEY ARE. THE TEEN LOUNGE IS ANOTHER VIBRANT SPACE, BUT ON A MORE SOPHISTICATED LEVEL. THE CONCEPT OF EXPLORATION THROUGH TRAVEL WILL BE PORTRAYED THROUGHOUT THE SPACE BY USE OF INTEGRATED FORMS AND VOIDS, PARTICULARLY IN AREAS OF INTEREST. THE ASYMMETRICAL SPACE ALLOWS FLEXIBILITY AND VARYING GROUPINGS OF ACTIVITIES FOR TEENS. INTERACTIVE GAMES, MUSIC AND READING ARE OF PARTICULAR INTEREST IN THE SPACE AND REQUIRE SOME SEPERATION. THERE WILL BE AREAS FOR TEENS TO INTERACT IN GROUPS, AS WELL AS AREAS FOR PRIVATE REFLECTION. THE LARGER, SOCIAL AREA WILL BE MORE VISUALLY STIMULATING THAN THE SMALLER, MORE INTIMATE AREAS. VARYING CEILING HEIGHTS AND ARCHITECTURAL FEATURES WILL TAKE THE TEENS TO PLACES THEY HAVE NEVER BEEN BEFORE.

CHILDREN ARE NATURALLY CURIOUS AND THE FOCUS OF THE LIBRARY WILL BE TO BRING OUT EVEN MORE CURIOUSITY. ALLOWING CHILDREN TO THINK FREELY AND ASK QUESTIONS, THEN GO FIND THE ANSWER IN A WIDE RANGE OF AGE-APPROPRIATE LITERATURE, FUELS LEARNING. THE LIBRARY WILL FOCUS ON ENGAGING LITTLE MINDS THROUGH QUESTIONING AND EXPLORATION. POCKETS OF INTERACTIVE SPACES WITHIN LOW-HEIGHT STACKS ALLOWS CHILDREN TO EXPLORE ON THEIR OWN IN THE SAFETY OF A CONTROLLED ENVIRONMENT. WHILE SEEMINGLY STRUCTURED, THE SPACE ALLOWS FOR VARYING GROUPS OF INTERACTION THROUGHOUT, TO ALLOW CHILDREN TO CONVERSE WITH OTHERS OR READ PRIVATELY. DAYLIGHTING WILL FILL THE SPACE TO ENCOURAGE LEARNING AND REDUCE STRESS. ALL AREAS WILL BE ACCESSIBLE AND ALLOW FOR SEATING APPROPRIATE FOR DIFFERENT AGE GROUPS. LARGE ACCENT PIECES IN RHYTHMIC AREAS OF THE LIBRARY PROVIDE FOCAL POINTS TO GIVE THE EYE A REST, WHEN THE REPETITION OF STACKS MAY BE OVERWHELMING. THE VISUAL COMPONENTS WILL LEND TO THE CURIOUSITY CONCEPT AND THE OVERALL CONCEPT OF LIVING FOR TODAY.
