Hi my name is Alexis Pappas and I've always been interested in art and design. Interior design has been a strong influence on my life and has been something I've been passionate about for many years. In my thesis project I aimed to fulfill the changing educational demands of students by integrating art and technology into an Art Library design. This Art Library is intended to be an active place that encourages innovation, teamwork, and discovery.
The library offers a diverse range of materials, including traditional art supplies and advanced technology tools like 3D printers and augmented reality devices. This multidisciplinary approach encourages students to interact with various artistic materials, preparing them for a future where creativity and innovation are intertwined. Students can gain from an atmosphere that not only retains the richness of traditional art but also embraces the promise of technology by pushing the boundaries in the Art Library's design. This will prepare them for a future in which creativity and innovation are intertwined. The physical layout should be adaptable to accommodate different learning styles. Through immersive experiences provided by interactive digital displays and virtual reality stations, students can encourage creatively with art.
This art library design explores pushing boundaries. The art library design will seamlessly incorporate art and technology to meet the evolving needs of students in terms of education, embodying the notion of "pushing boundaries." The goal of the library is to be a dynamic space that promotes creativity, collaboration, and discovery. This will also be made possible by ensuring the space can be adaptable to suit various learning preferences and styles.
21 Ossington Avenue, Toronto, Ontario This location offers a growing and diverse population, mostly made up of students attending nearby universities and colleges. It is also accessible to all thanks to its many transportation options and street parking.
The 3D views produced show the key areas of this art library that help define the space. The use of advanced technology and art have played huge factors into this design and are present in each rendering. The use of wood tones and natural calming colours are used in this space to help creating a calming and welcoming environment while also not distracting from the surrounding featured artwork.
