The design focuses on utilizing the bookshelves and central studying space on the first floor of the library. For the central area, in-ground planters would hold the white bird of paradise with tree phiodendron and xanadu philodendron as fillers in smaller pots.

Small pots of Mammillaria elongata would line the top of the bookshelves. Other succulents like the Golden Barrel Cactus would be on display in the small boxes near the entrance. Kalanchoe blossfeldiana and the heart-leaf philodendron would be in small pots on the window sills along the back wall.

On the second Floor, the model would be replaced with a larger white bird of paradise and smaller tree philodendron and xanadu Philodendron as a focal point. Kalanchoee blossfeldiana would line the study room in a low aboveground planter. Smaller arrowhead vines and xanadu philodendron would separate the work stations. New lighting would be needed for the center area with the white bird.

For the second design, I focused on the areas around the pillars which gets an adequate amount of light. In ground planters would have boston ferns, larger striped dracaena and false birds of paradise. Along the edge of the back wall would be smaller but dense striped dracaena in the spaces between work stations and around the corners of the walls; these dracaena would be in small above ground pots.

On the second floor, a lot of color would be utilized with African violets along the study room wall and on the window ledges on the back wall in small pots.

Hanging baskets would separate the work stations while cherry red guzmania utilize the spaces near the back wall in muted colored pots alongside of boston ferns. Two small Alli Narrow Leafed Figs would separate the computer work station in the middle of the wall from the smaller tables.

Design 3, on the first floor, outlines the corners of the central study area. Dwarf schefflera, mother-in-lawstongues, and boston ferns will be planted in ground around the corners of the outer tables. A proposed living wall would be installed along the edges of the windows comprised of Mable Queen and Golden Pothos. Marble Queen Pothos would also be utilized to provide a unique décor for the outline of the magazine wall.

On the second floor, golden pothos hanging baskets would edges the book cases. Marble Queen Pothos would hang over the stairway ledge and come from a small above ground water feature surrounded by boston ferns. Above ground china dolls would line the study room and right back wall. New light installations would be needed because this area does not get sufficient natural light Note

The main focus of this design is the study area. Because the lighting for the Daap Café is so apparent, a hanging plant, such as the String-ofbeads, could provide a cool environment for studying daapers or visitors. Spineless yucca and ming aralia would separate the study area from the pathway between main places in the café in light colored pottery.

Since there is a lot of empty space towards the end of the hallway near the photolab, a cluster of different sized alli, narrow leafed figs and benjamin ficus trees would separate the four couches from passerbyers in similar pottery. The trees towards the 3000 staircase would be kept as they are.

The trees by the 3000 staircase would be replaced with in ground planters that start very low to the ground then rise for a hierarchy of lady palms, rubber plants, and mother-in-laws-tongue, ascending in that order. Using the same planters along the walls to the right of the couches, this hierarchy would be used to lead the visitor in the direction of the PhotoLab. Note

The focal point of this design is the area behind the tables near the staircase. Using Ponytail palms and dragon trees, the center of the installation would be dense in dark ground planters.

For decoration, in ground white and brown planters of smaller crotons and Irish lace English ivy would line the edges of the café to accentuate its boundaries.

The trees at the staircase will stay in place but the main attraction would be staggered living walls around the perimeter of the café, mainly across from the Daap store and the study area. Either by utilizing the entire wall in protruding on-wall planters or by carving out the walls for planters, a mixture of golden pothos and poinsetta will dominate the wall closest to the café.

On the walls on the opposite side of the Daap Store, a mix of crotons, variegated spider plants, poinsettas, and Irish lace English ivy would be planted in a striped design.

The point of this design is to not infringe on the crit space but use hanging plants to spice up the columns on the opposite side of that space. Boston ferns of different height would be hung from the top Note Common Name of the columns, ascending in height as they reach closer to the floor.

NE

The stairs closer to the 4000 level directly next to the walls are rarely used. There is space on the stairs PX that could be used for in ground or above ground planters that follow the direction of the stairs. Lady jane anthuriums would be the largest plants in the DJ planters, with janet craig dracaenas the second tallest and xanadu philodendrons the smallest.

AL Lighting would need to be in place because of inadequate natural light.

Without infringing on the crit space, in ground planters would form semi-circles around the columns. Cherry red guzmania would be the focal point in the planters, rising above the Irish lace English ivy groundcover and taller ZZZ plant.

Hanging above on the columns would be pots of large Irish lace English ivy that trail down to connect at the bottom of the planters.

The in ground planters would be at floor level, with the plants planted beneath floor level, surrounded by either white or grey stone.

Because the crit area uses the moving boards to display works, small in ground black planters could be put in along the wall behind them made up of nerve plants and boston ferns, the attention leaning on the nerve plants.

Along the sides of the railings, in above ground planters would accentuate the pathway down the center of the staircase, in between the crit areas. I would put in striped dracaena and caste iron plants in pots of the same color but different sizes. On the dividing wall between the bathrooms and the DAAP office, big and small grey/silver planters would hold boston ferns and striped dracaena, the ferns in the smaller pots and dracaena in the bigger ones.
