Quote:Right now I'm trying to figure out where the windows, if any, should go on the main habitat part of the module. Any suggestions are welcome.I'm thinking that the Main Concourse (Concourse A) should have skylights - plenty of skylights. But not completely roofed with skylights; this is a commercial deck, not an observation deck.
Concourse C might get away with having no windows at all; I'm getting the vibe that it's storage and overflow light-industrial (whatever doesn't fit in the hub), plus residential for employees and permanent residents. We all know what the crew quarters are like on a cruise ship; this is more of the same, but not quite as cramped or spartan. (Noah looks out for his employees, after all.)
Whch leaves Concourse B as primarily leased office space... which should have windows, but I have no idea where to put them, either.
The commercial/office/storage+residential division for Concourses A/B/C is, of course, arbritary and incompletely followed. (There's a BBI office on the Main Concourse, a fair-trade coffee/sandwich shop on Concourse B, and a convenience store in the middle of the residence block on Concourse C, for example.)
Edit: So I don't forget now that I've found one, http://www.bridgehead.ca/]here's the website of a real-world fair-trade coffee/sandwich shop.
