POSITIVE FEEDBACK LOOP
HEALTHCARE
EDUCATION
COMMUNITY
A positive feedback loop within the community, where healthcare, education and people are connected to improve wellness. More specifically, kids can get better health care education at school and they will have positive influence on their parents and then to influence the whole neighborhood. The well-educated residents could get better health care experience in the center. Also, normally if kids get sick, it is hard for them to keep up with their school, with the new design the connection bridge allows inpatient kids to continue school.

BACKGROUND & PROGRAM
Public library system in city of St. Louis can be dated back to the year of 1865 as the Public School Library Society of St. Louis. In the beginning, it was a subscription Library open only to paying members of the residents. Then it opened to the public for reading on the premises since 1874. There are 17 branches of public libraries in the city, which include 14 main branches and 3 mini new branches. The largest and most famous one is the central branch in downtown St. Louis. The building, designed by noted architect Cass Gilbert, opened to the citizens of St. Louis in January 1912. Then in the year of 2012, the Library was closed for two years while the building was totally emptied, renewed, and refitted by Cannon Design to serve the needs of the modern library user.
However, even though there are 17 branches of the public library in the city, the branches are still not enough for some areas of the city, especially for the north part of the city. This project aims to focus on building a new public library branch in the zip code 63106 area, and provide a wonderful atmosphere to communication and hanging out for the whole community. The main design concept of this new branch is to create a proper scale of the public space, a urban living room that is open and desirable space to accumulate for the neighborhood. In the middle part of the library is a warm and friendly courtyard, which contains many small sports equipment, walking path, benches etc. The whole landscape of the courtyard extend from the inside of building to the urban area for people easily to access. Moreover, the definition of this “living room� is a proper scale about public space for people to get together, which is not huge or small.
First Floor Plan
Regarding the program of the inside space, the project break the “traditional style of library�, which is mainly about the book reading area inside. On the other hand, this project has a big digital reading area for modern residents to access the digital materials and experience the artificial intelligence interactions as well. The digital resources are much more efficient than the physical ones, as they could be access in a second from all over the world. The project will become a new prototype of new type of library in the 21st century.

DOUBLE LAYER ENVELOPE ANALYSIS Some parts of facade is dowble layers, in order to reflect light and enjoy wonderful light atmosphere. In summer, the movable baffle on the top of windows could be open. Air will pass through from bottom to the top of envelope. While in winter, it will close to decrease speed of air and reduce energy consumption.

SECTION AYALYSIS There is a light rail station in front of the building. When the train is passing by, it will bring speed air which can be cooled by the water before getting into the building. Meanwhile, the air can be also cooled by water, because of the direction of southeastern monsoon. Third Floor Plan
