Brief

The theme of the studio was ‘primitive: participation mystique and architecture’. I chose to work on re-inventing the library typology for the modern age.

This project responds to the loss of 'the primitive' by providing a public, flexible space to learn, where there are many types of overlapping programs. It deals with a steep existing site with a stepped floorplan, and incorporates a garden path through the building.
