  6. Play with the top edge of your building. Curvy and then BAM!...cuts right off? Por que?

  7. -you are running terribly late and your promise of updates is unfulfilled; if you are able to maintain this level of production on a daily basis you may get the required deliverables submitted at a satisfactory level; keep to the schedule and you can get through this; though you are in an unenviable position, at the very least you should prioritize getting those things you can get done complete
    -you will find that once you begin designing the upper level/roof conditions that there will be quite a bit of mechanical support up there that will ultimately require you to design something other than a truncated roof condition; as a student in second year, and one who has ideally read the project brief, you should know that you must demonstrate an awareness of the implications of HVAC on a design
    -I hope for your sake that you will go beyond renderings of purported orthographic drawings and follow convention; it's not as though all the imagery has to be linework, however simply rendering out CAD models is a mistake many first years make; do not fall prey to that
    -I believe you are still exiting illegally on the Gould Street elevation; you must bring your exit to the street and not to where a potential truck could be impeding egress; bring the exit through to the north instead of putting the fire panel there; also ask yourself what the value of having the front foyer exiting through the stair would be
    -it is likely too late to fix now but your circulation for the DMZ still is quite awkward such as entering right into a waiting area/meeting room from Yonge Street and that your furniture tends to make for problematic occupation; your ground floor "3rd space" area (at least that is what I am guessing it is supposed to be) is expansive and lacks a real architectural design; anticipate questions about these design decisions; if these questions are not asked, then it is likely the reviewers will be either focused on other design questions or they wish to spare the audience such low-level criticism/discussion
    -you do not outline what goes on in the southern terrace condition; perhaps this is simply because you have yet to produce a floor plan of this; please remember to include it in your final; your units have little regard or sensitivity to levels of domesticity but again, this is likely too little too late; just try to negotiate how you will present that you know how people occupy spaces in light of some of the unit designs you have presented (most notably the north barrier free unit)
    -get a sense of your model and how you will produce it especially as you are designing while producing which is a very dangerous position to be in right now; there are a great deal of design issues that have to be resolved but that might have to be done when the term is finally over for you; in the meantime you are simply in production mode to get the bare minimum done
