Hilton M. Briggs Library
To re-consider the Hilton M. Briggs Library by thinking creatively and intentionally about what a forward-looking library should be, how it should function, and what scholarly and social learning goals it might serve. Provide an alternative place for users of all ages to gather, connect, explore, and engage in lifelong learning experiences.
Concept | Energetic Revival
With the vision for a 21st-century library, it will inspire study and learning environments that are safe, comfortable, and inviting. Having an environment that has good energy allows for collaboration and studying. Redesigning the library will offer revival by the library becoming something popular, active, and important again. Having a space that is welcoming and inviting gives the users a reason to come back. Energetic revival will allow for a fun, positive environment that allows for creativity and vigorous work while improving with others and by giving the library a new face.
