Continue to develop the Vicinity and 3D Analytical diagrams

Make a two lists of discussion/feedback/critique items about your Vicinity and 3D Analytical diagrams.
Make a third list, no visuals, with a minimum of four project design opportunities, challenges, and concerns that could be addressed further than you currently show. Try to be specific. Some possibilities include:

PROGRAMMATIC – My lounge idea could be affected by the wind, so I should show the direction(s) and strength on the 3D diagram to communicate this challenge
SPATIAL – I want sunlight to come into the lobby, so I need to show on my 3D diagram the directions that I need to have openings
SEASONAL – I want to have a cool shade structure in the pool area, but it might need to change location throughout the year as my 3D analysis shows
ACCESS – I plan to have special events in the pool area during the summer, so Ubers are going to queue for drop-off and pick-up; this could be a problem for regular hotel guests to check in/out easily during the events. How can I show this on the 3D analysis as a problem to be solved?
PROXIMITY – How can I show on my Vicinity diagram the challenges of taking advantage of my brand’s partnerships with businesses across town, while also demonstrating my brand’s support of carbon-zero transportation?
SEASONAL – The view from the roof is great — except at this time of year in this direction because of the smog as I show on the 3D analysis
SPATIAL – You can see the Hollywood sign from the roof — but there is tall building that blocks it from this corner as my 3D analysis shows
many other types of opportunities and challenges

Place a draft of the three lists in the same space where you pinned up this Week 3 before the end of class time Week 3.
Add labels and flags to the diagrams as appropriate.
Make sure your 3d Analytical diagram has a north arrow.
