Maximizing Light is a public space where people can go to get work done, spend time with friends, have meetings, and enjoy the library. This building existes to make use of what is currently a half green, half unused space in the Boston seaport. This building will actually increase the greenspace, while putting in an attraction to Bring more new people into the area.

          The buildings goal is to create a fun and exciting outdoor space that maximizes natural light to improve mood. Studies have found that people are much more productive and focused when in a space lit with natural light, rather than artificial light. The building is positioned so that the largest faces of it were getting direct sunlight. Many light studies were done on how different perforated patterns and luivers affect light, as too much harsh light would be bad. Along with space restraints there were also vertical restraints, as the buildings around the sight have contracts that say that nothing can block their view of the water.
