我们的图书馆设计灵感来自当地的土木建筑，特别是附近的一个大型农舍。我们的灵感来自谷仓在景观中的存在，它的内部体积，以及物质的存在。当我们开始考虑我们的设计以及它对当地地形和气候的反应时，我们认为谷仓是一个合适的正式原型。为了响应程序的需要，我们将现有结构的体积轮廓分割成四分之一，每个部分包含整个程序的一部分。通过随后对其体积、视图、风和日光的一系列调整，每个“盒子”都被调整、旋转和插入开口。填补“盒子”之间的空间是一个天空照明的进入序列和建筑服务。由此产生的组成使人回想起谷仓的轮廓，同时将其转化为更适合公共结构的存在。

Our design for the library takes inspiration from local vernacular structures and, in particular, a nearby large agricultural barn. We were inspired by the barn’s presence in the landscape, it’s interior volume, and material presence. As we began considering our design and its response to the local terrain and climate, we saw the barn as a befitting formal prototype. In response to the program needs, we took the volumetric profile of the existing structure and sliced it into quarters, with each section containing one portion of the full program. Through a subsequent series of adjustments to its volume, views, winds, and daylight, each “box” was adjusted, rotated, and openings inserted. Filling the space between the “boxes” are a sky-lit entry sequence and building services. The resulting composition recalls the profile of the barn while transforming it into a presence more suited to a public structure.

每个“方框”都包含了整个程序的一部分。成人和儿童的资源区域将作为大型阅览室，天花板最高可达18英尺，并通过空间仔细控制自然光线。一个社区会议室占据一个“盒子”，而房子后面的工作人员则在另一个地方工作。

Each ‘box’ contains a portion of the overall program. The adult and children’s resource areas will act as large reading rooms, with ceilings soaring to 18+ feet and carefully controlled natural light filtering through the space. A community meeting room occupies one ‘box’ and the back of house staff workplaces another.

外部材料包括复合墙板雨幕，锌屋顶，波纹钢筋，和壁板，以回忆原来的谷仓。每个“盒子”的颜色略有不同，并与不同的区域木材在内部。该结构被认证为LEED银。

Exterior materials include a composite siding rain screen, zinc roofing, corrugated cor-ten steel, and siding to recall the original barn. Each ‘box’ is painted a slightly different color and paired with a different regional wood at the interior. The structure is certified LEED Silver.
