The ground floor and corridors were developed as with a variation of direct and optional circulation spaces. Upon entering the building, you're positioned in front of an information desk for the 1600 square foot gallery. The gallery space, illustrated with a blue tone, is wide spread throughout the building.

The elevator is to the left side of the building, with fire stairs to both the left and right. We added an additional set of skip-stop stairs at the front of the building, such to direct the occupants through the gallery spaces in the corridors. Taking the stairs on the ground floor would then require you to walk through the 2nd floor corridor to reach the next staircase.

The 8th floor marks the end of the gallery space, with yet another 1600 square foot open art space. The 9th floor features a gym for the students as well as numerous outdoor spaces.

The first look at program, considering the traditional library scheme. Divided between age groups and private/public spaces. Then diagramming the supposed circulation, based on the outward movement of the e-coli swarm. Through further study of the relationships in program, I began to develop a structural section where program is joined.
