Hillary Rodham Clinton Children’s Library, located in the heart of a degraded Little Rock community, has become a catalyst for progress and regenerative energy.
Existing site conditions such as urban surface storm water and topography drove the design concept, which was to create a micro-scale of Arkansas’ seven eco-regions.

Multiple locations to accommodate outdoor class instruction were included, as well as a teaching garden, greenhouse, and demonstration kitchen.
