It is absolutely a great idea to use this type of windows on school. It is more beneficial than any other types of windows. - Stephen Samuelian

It's clean and has a nice interior design. And these are the factors that need to be considered when building a library, the space and the design. - Stephen Samuelian

Hello, I am an architect living in Madrid, Spain and I am part of the 2013 competition jury.

I see that your focus was on the furniture, and I enjoy seeing the process screens shots of how you built the 3d models, but the development of the layout of the library space itself is lacking, or at least no evidence is shared in the Develop Solutions phase.

I appreciate the digital model you constructed for the Final Design phase, though not all of the views are that helpful in understanding your design. Labels on the aerial view of the spaces would be helpful, and perspective views taken lower, could help give a better sense of what it would be like to be in the space.

Great consistent work throughout the design process, keep up the good work and keep developing your skills as a designer. Do not be afraid to try sketching ideas by hand too.

This bubble diagram is a great first step to thinking about the different areas in your new library design and the relationship between them. You have also done a great job collecting images of more furniture and features that you find inspiring. The brainstorm phase could include more sketches regarding your intial ideas, of what the library space will be like.

I wanted to compliment you on having provided the sources for the information that you have gathered in the summary part of this section. You have collected a nice range of information about your existing school library, other libraries, and some feature products and materials.
