Northern Guilford H.S. Media Center

After our class visit to the Guilford High School and Middle School, i decided to focus on redesigning the Media center in the High School. I went back to talk to the librarians and take more pictures of the Media center in order to begin my design process.


As you walk in the Reception desk is the focal are in the media center with two arcs on the ceiling are waifinding devises leading you to the reception. Librarians would like a raised floor behind the reception, for a better outlook into the media center.


It is arranged in a matter in which most general H.S. libraries are arranged:
  • made for large groups
  • grouped coputer areas
  • 2 librarians
  • 2 entrance/exitsts

However, it is not arranged well for individuals, and currently has an area that is a 'unknown area', separaded friom the rest of the media center by columns and the only place in there with color (purple). After talking to the librarians, they are very interested in a stage in that spacific area and possably turnining it into an internet cafe area as well.
