-The floor plans are split into two
typical floor plan types based
mostly on the exterior of the
building and the shape of the
floors outer walls. The decision to
create two typical floors accom-
plishes two things: 1- it simplifies
the design layout for construction.the design layout for construction.
and 2- It creates good simitry in
the facade design, while making
the form more interesting.
