This is a rendering of the outside eating area. There are benches, long tables, private tables, trash cans, and recycle bins. You can also see all of the windows that look out to this area. This outside eating area creates much more space for students to have their lunch and to socialize.

karjen5,
Hello, I'm one of the jurors for the competition. I enjoyed your thoughtful review and consideration of the issues you experience with your school's cafeteria. The utilization of the under-used courtyard is a wonderful solution. The addition of a second floor for seating with views of activity below is also compelling. I would have liked to have seen your design show more of the existing overall school building, and how your design works with the flow of students around campus. For your next design project, for your exterior spaces, don't forget to consider shading from the sun (Revit can throw sunshine on your model for your particular latitude at any time of year - a great tool.), as well as the inclusion of landscaping (trees, lawn, planters, etc). Good luck to you!
