RESEARCH

THE ONLY MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION IS BY BOAT • ON A CRUISE BOAT • ON A SMALL MOTOR FISHING BOAT • PERSONAL FISHING BOATS

ANNUAL TEMPERATURE: 30-80˚C - good interval for natural ventilation; low energy use for heating/cooling ANNUAL RAINFALL: 0.5in –2.0in - overall quantity of rain/roof surface is not enough to provide for the building. alternative sources to be found - ANNUAL WIND: 0-30MPH - wind is a good steady resource for energy production, but harmful on the wildlife. Wind will be used for natural ventilation only.

REVIEW FEEDBACK FROM MID REVIEW - THE SORROUNDINGS, LOCATION INFORMATIN SHOULD BE GATHERED IN A DIAGRAM OR SCHEDULE AND MAKE A STATEMENT OF WHAT EXACLY IS INFORMING YOUR DESIGN. WHY THE OTHER VILLAGES IMPORTANT TO LOOK AT? WHAT IS THE MAIN CIRCULATION? - PRESENT THE SITE AND THESIS STATEMENT FIRST, AND THEN RELATE TO ANALYSIS TO MAKE YOUR STATEMENT STRONGER - MAKE SURE YOU MARK YOUR SITE ON ALL PLANS. CREATE PLANS THAT CAN TAKE YOU FROM AN OVERALL, CLORES TO YOUR SITE. - - SECTION THRU THE SITE, THAT WOULD SHOUW THE RELATIONSHIP WITH THE VILLAGE WOULD PROVIDE MORE INFORMATION ABOUT THE INTEGRATION OF THE FACILITY - - SHOW EXISTING/DEMO/FUTE PLANS FOR A BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF WHAT IS GOING TO BE USED AND WHAT IS THE LAND THAT IS GOING TO BE RETRIBUTED TO THE LANDSCAPE - 3D DIAGRAM OF PROGRAM ON SITE
