You've done a great job of providing a striking design which will provide additional space to the existing library, while remaining within the context of the existing building. I particularly enjoy the way you worked through the process, adding and discarding ideas, while explaining why and how the entire time. It's apparent that you've considered all users of the library, from students up to administrators. The green roof (while very expensive!) is a great nod toward making a sustainable solution. Wonderful work, overall.
Yeah, I gathered people's opinions (librarians, classmates, and myself) on what they'd like to have in a library. From small changes, to full-scale reconstruction, I put together the best ideas (In my opinion) and the ones I can actually work with in Revit into my final project. The green roof is one of my favourites.
