My Project

This projects aims to refresh the middle school section of our library and to create a dynamic and engaging space that fosters a love for reading and learning. I want to design an inviting environment that inspires our middle schoolers to visit the library and encourages them to continue a habit of reading for pleasure into the middle school years.

By creating a space that is visually appealing and comfortable, I hope the library becomes a go-to space for our middle school students.

This area will also strengthen the sense of community within our middle school students.
