A Place for One to Read a Book

Design 2

The model created inhabits the space adjacent to Unity Temple. Through the use of a second level, the reading space brings the observer to a comparable level to the Unity Temple and surrounding buildings. The experience begins with a journey through the textile block and glass entry. From there, the reader grabs a book from the copious amount of shelving. Then, one would continue to the second level via the winding staircase. At the top, one has the opportunity to read either inside or on the concrete cantilever portion. Both options include plenty of natural lighting due to the large amount of glass in the building; yielding no need for artificial lighting.
