dc.description.abstract | Tom Hille’s Fall 2012 architectural design studio participated in the Sustainable City Year Springfield Library project, and was tasked with developing schematic designs for a proposed new public library for the City of Springfield. To accommodate a growing population in Springfield, the city administration and library identified a need to build a new building wholly dedicated to the purpose of creating a civic space where all members of the community can have equal access to high quality information and educational resources. The design studio included 17 architecture students at both the graduate and undergraduate level. Over the course of ten weeks (one academic term), they individually proposed schematic designs for the library. The studio proposed a contemporary vision of a community-oriented library that developed its civic identity within a framework of sustainable design practices. Students explored sustainable building practices that enhanced the civic agenda of the library’s program, including rainwater harvesting in public space, daylighting in reading rooms, increased diversity through mixed-use spaces, and access to alternative forms of transportation. | en_US |
