Some perspective on Maya Lin’s new project

Maya Lin’s radical and light-filled library renovation at Smith College re-sculpts the campus, a green haven for students in Northampton, Mass.

Maya Lin’s Library

What has Maya Lin been doing lately? Among other things, re-designing a “jewel box” library complex on the historic Smith College Campus. Lin’s innovative design incorporates, among other features, a large, light-gathering prism to bring rooftop sunlight deep into the interior of the library.
