This project was the start of my second semester of third year. We were given a task of creating a library made out of steel for NDSU. When starting out my design I usually start with many different partis' which starts to get ideas flowing. When painting my parti I came upon this idea of these, fingers I call them, protruding from my building and being the iconic design to this building. Looking through the circulation and many different parts of the building I thought an excellent way to exclaim the beauty and elegance of the steel was to create this super structure and create floating floors from the strength of the steel. Along with the structure another aspect of my design was to incorporate the hexagonal shapes. But there are many different meanings behind this shape, the one that stood out to me the most was the symbolic aspect of communication, because with a library I feel is a hub for all communication to flourish and expand. This is also incorporated in the parti.
