Please review and provide feedback. Thank you!

Also, confirming that the lobby does not count towards the 25% circulation limit?
Does window size matter? Can we do 1 long window along a 40' wall if we wanted?
For rooms requiring visual control, is it best to place interior windows? Do the windows have to be directly across from the entry door to other space?

;) 4' to 6' wide is recommended.

For rooms requiring visual control, is it best to place interior windows? That's the only way to achieve visual control Do the windows have to be directly across from the entry door to other space? They just have to work.

Why is there a window in the south wall of GR?
Logically E and EE should be adjacent.
GR does not need windows in the west wall.
Avoid L-shaped rooms.

Do you need to have window on south of GR so that Reception has visual control of space? Or if the rooms are closely grouped together, i.e. directly acrosss the hallway, does this count as visual control without windows?

That's not what the program asks for.Or if the rooms are closely grouped together, i.e. directly acrosss the hallway, does this count as visual control without windows? No. Interior windows are required for visual control. Please read that portion of the program again.
