SUNY Environmental Science and Forestry located in Syracuse, New York, currently have their existing library. My design for this addition consisted of connecting it to the existing in a subtle manner. I incorporated geometric curves and skylights for sun access and sun louvers for sun protection as well as an atrium in the center for better circulation and light throughout the structure. This semester we had been learning about mass timber and what is was capable of. While researching, I realized how durable it is and different unique designs I can incorporate it into.
