建筑与环境是相互的，建筑应该融入环境，并对此作出积极的反应，并作用于环境。此图书馆与北侧活动中心是一个集群建筑，除了响应东南侧的景观面外，还与学生活动中心相互呼应。
基本形的构成——本案探讨方形，圆形，三角形等基本形的造型构成潜力。通过平面和立面上的错位，分割，叠合，交错，置入，形成整个形态的构成。
功能布局——阅览室，办公等景观需求大的空间置于东南侧，同时折线退台的形式使每个空间景观采光达到最佳。报告厅功能位于西南侧，与室外的阶梯状屋顶结合一体，面向南侧广场，方便人流沿阶梯而上，进入屋顶花园和观景平台。北部为书库及其附属功能。
轴线延续与共享廊道——轴线最终指向南侧广场，并成为活动中心轴线的延续，由此产生整个建筑的公共廊道。
半亩方塘与壶中天地——共享轴与各功能区块中部有连接各部分的圆形庭院。半亩方塘是朱熹小时候读书的地方，本案借用此概念。庭院被分成两半，一半为与园林结合的水园，另一半与门厅结合的光庭。整个圆形庭院成为建筑的“壶中天地”，并与外部景观相互交融。
Architecture should be integrated into the environment, and make a positive response. The library and the activity center is a group project, in addition to its response to the landscape in the northwest side, also to the student activity center.
Basic form composition——This case discusses the shaping potential of the basic form ,such as square, round, triangle and other basic shape potential,by the means of dislocation, segmentation, overlap, staggered.
Function layout——Reading room, office placed on the southeast side ,face to the best landscape. Auditorium is located in the southwest side, matching outdoor ramp of roof, oriented on the south side of the square, the people flow can be easily walk onto the roof garden and viewing platform. The north for the stack and its affiliated function.
Axis & the public common space——The end of the axis points to the south side of the square, and become a continuation of the central axis of the activity, resulting in the public corridor of the entire building.
Half Courtyard——In the middle is a circular courtyard,which is divided by the axis,one of the half is a water garden,the other is a skylight courtyard.
