We’d be killed for proposing this in architecture school. It would be nice as a portion of a building in which light and solitude would be required.

It ís a reading room :check the text and the pictures. What you call proportion and scale in historical examples were merely the result of building techniques of the time. Also the result of oversized egos of both architect and comissioners. I don't mean there aren't impressive and beautiful gigantic buildings but let's be honest : this isn't the Sixtine Chapel.
