Assembling the Accommodation

Just a quick video showing how each of the building's components would come together to form the building. When designing I always imagined it as being at least four storey high. Now of course that could be scaled down or up to fit the demands. Scaling it up seems good. On the other hand scaling it down makes it less of a good design in my opinion, some aspect seem a bit silly, for example the main hall would be way too big. Scaling it down also means less inhabitants, and then the whole hopes of community seems to be less realistic. Four storey means 96 inhabitants, 24 on each level, and now a chances for community is viable. The hall and corridors no longer seem oversized. You could argue that the design is already too restrictive for 96 inhabitants let alone more, mainly due to there only being two lifts. But I've lived in apartments where two lifts are shared between a similar number of people and there aren't problems with lift availability majority of the time. If lift accessibility really is a problem, there is space to add a lift next to the existing ones, and then double the amounts of lifts, it would just mean less space in the cross corridor. Now I also know that there is a fatal flaw to this design, and that is the lack of a staircase, it's not that I've chosen to not have one, it's just that I'm in the process of incorporating it, which has proven to be a tad annoying. But in the final design there will be a staircase and a lift.
