Youmedia teen library
YOUmedia has decided to expand its digital learning program to locations throughout the Midwest. For this school project, I have been hired by YOUmedia to design a teen space focused on digital learning at one of the Milwaukee Public Library locations. The library has identified approximately 3000 SF of space on the second floor that will be the future home for this project. This is a space where teens can hang out, get help with homework, experiment with design software in a range of disciplines, record music, and participate in a variety of digital media activities and workshops.
This space will be a bold, yet welcoming area for all kids and teens. The contrast of the historic building with the colorful space will draw people's attention, inviting them to stay and collaborate with others.
