Your Recommendation for the “Best” Design Option
Enter a brief paragraph (5 to 7 sentences) outlining a brief explanation of why you chose this design option as the “best” after comparing your analyses of the proposals…
The first comparison is sun hours for each proposal, and the second comparison is microclimate. I chose proposal 3 because it has the most optimal sun hours and microclimate. Though I liked the unique design of proposal 1, it is unfortunately too short to catch much of any natural light exposure. Due to this, the building stays relatively cold, ruling out the possibility for passive lighting and heating. Proposal 2 had similar sun hours and microclimate, but I thought the design was too simple and modular for the client’s requests.
