This is a sketch of what the front of the school (from the street) will look like. The door will be a standard automatic sliding door with a stained glass window feature above. The window will give the room some color when the light shines through during the day and, at the same time, will give the exterior of the building some color and character as well. Another thing we will add to the building are big windows. There will be windows on either sides of the door and stained glass window and as well as around the round building. This will make the interior of the library to feel as though it is a spacious building without making the building too large. It will also illuminate the building better with natural sunlight. The windows will be equipped with shades that open and close at the push of a button.

Nice concept drawing! Have you thought about what kind of energy needs the building will have if too much sunlight enters those windows? Remember: "green" products don't necessarily mean a "green" building!

I like your group's idea of having a lot of windows and making the library feel spacious and open.

Thank you for the compliment! We appreciate it very much.
