CNNC Schematic Design

My intent for CNNC is create an environment inviting to the immigrants as well as a place for the CNNC staff. I wanted to keep all spaces as open as possible and allowing light to spread throughout. The layout of my floor-plan is categorized in different areas. I have a hallway for private and public offices. The large vault contains a multifunctional space that can serve different events. There is a storage room, large conference room, computer room and classroom on the back wall. I extended the glass wall to signify the feeling of openness as well as keeping the noise level controlled. On the left wall, i have a large window showing that it leads to the ramp which take you down to the lower level. The connector hallway is a place for gathering since it has 2 conference rooms, public restrooms and a classroom. It also is the entrance to the courtyard outside. Entering into the smaller vault, it serves as the training room. It also contains a storage room, classroom and community kitchen. I wanted do the same to this wall as in the larger vault with the glass extending to the ceiling. The colors i used were neutrals and i accented walls and furniture with green. I would use hardwood floors for hallways, the open vault spaces, and reception area. Carpet will be used in the conference rooms, classrooms, and private offices, tile would be used in the restrooms and the kitchen. Throughout this process, i feel that this space overall is an inviting space for CNNC.
