Based on the discussion with Prof Hartkopf, several issue of the design was brought about:
  • The appearance is too "commercial / industrial" like
  • The living-group arrangement is good, but the living space facing north should reflect its different physical environment: 
- daylight redirecting for lower levels
- skylight for the top level
  • Need to get feedback from different "user" of the building.
