In no specific order:

• The structural properties of the materials you are working with is very important and not only the size and dimensions
• The architectural idea/concept can be informed by two very specific things in this project
o the function
o the technology
• Precedent to look for:
o Safe Haven Library by Ban Tha Song Yang in Thailand see http://www.tyintegnestue.no/ this info was found by Gabrielle. Thanks!
o Rafeal Iglesia: Quichua and swimming pool, Rosario, Argentina, 2001, this info was found by Rafiq P, thanks! If somebody can find a link, please add this
o also see ruralstudio.com see specifically Yancey Tire Chapel // Sawyerville, AL // 1995 Thesis Project and HERO Playground // Greensboro, AL // 1997 Thesis Project
• The architectural idea is not a guess but a discovery and must be informed by research
• Find out about PRIMARY, SECONDARY AND TERTIARY structure and how that can inform your idea
• The MAIN FUNCTION of this hub is to be A LANDMARK
• As per Tom V: If you are going to express the three different functions as three different entities, really think about how and why they are different or the same and how this can inform what these spaces/places look like
