Space allocation
5.5% of the combined NASF for academic and staff

Adjacency relationships
Locate adjacent to the vending area to permit food
consumption and alleviate crowding of the vending
area during periods of heavy usage. Also locate near
the main entrance for convenience of visitors and for
visibility. Lounge space may also be dispersed
throughout the building. This may be more convenient
than a centrally located lounge, and could provide
visual interest to the circulation area.
