This is such a cool design! I like how you can see what is going on before you even walk inside. The shape is very unique as well. It's inviting and it really looks like a space people would enjoy spending time at. The range of materials adds a personality to the building.

Thank you for considering the impact on the sun over a very large area of glass, through solar panels and shades you can control a large amount of insolation. Keep in mind that interior shades are not nearly as effective and exterior shading devices. It would be really great to see what a comprehensive shading strategy did to your building shape and design.

I think your hexagon locker concept is an interesting study and the more square aspect ratio would provide more individual lockers. Keep in mind however, that many things that are stored in lockers (i.e. books) are square, not to mention the hexagon only tessellates regularly until it reaches a square edge (i.e. floor, ceiling or wall). Thanks for the creative study!

I agree with the previous comment. Also it is important to consider how these connections relate to your final design. It never hurts to go back and revisit your assumptions to confirm your understanding.

Good work annotating your graphics and helping viewers understand where pictures are taken from. Make sure to compose every slide as some of the pictures you placed are graphically difficult to understand and blend in to the adjacent images.

After reviewing the rest of your project, I think you have a strong design concept here with the "Wagon wheel," especially as an organizing/structural element. However as a statement of design concept and overview it is hard to understand right away. Try to provide additional information to help viewers understand the project from a very broad to very refined understanding as they progress through your presentation.

Interesting roof design; however, in terms of material, you could consider perforated metal panels.
In terms of graphic, I would scale down the texts in all the renderings.

It is a great design. In your previous research, you have identified some of the environmental aspects of the building, it would be great if you could develop them further in the final design. For example, by using low-e glass on the south facing wall, it will enhance thermal insulation of the space.
