I'm not sure if the front wall is glass (no mullions shown). Perhaps it is actually an operable partition dividing the portion shown from a much larger assembly space.
It could also mean that this isn't a storefront remodel. Rather, it might be a remodel of a conference center or the meeting rooms at a hotel. If the latter, then the kitchen, bath, and bedroom are definitely superfluous as the conference center and/or hotel would have those amenities elsewhere.
My understanding is that open plans are more appropriate for crack dens. The bedroom is superfluous, as mattresses will be strewn randomly around the main space. Perhaps you should do a parametric study of mattress placement and use maximization?
How can you truly understand the needs of the user without getting into their mindset? In my view, it is a complete and total failure of the pedagogical and ontological underpinnings of contemporary architecture education that the perspective of the crack smoker isn't the starting point when considering the design of a space. Forget Deleuze, Foucalt, Derrida and all those other eggheads, you need to know what Rick the dude who hangs in front of the mini-mart has to say about the architectural manifestations of late-capitalist consumer culture.
Only then will you be properly prepared to evaluate the efficacy of this floor plan.
Need feedback on this floorplan.
Thoughts?
Would it be considered a "room" or a "den?" Also, you forgot a stove in the kitchen.
I don't think you need that 45d corner in the bathroom
Plus if he gets rid of the 45, he can put a little built-in shelf for storing pipes.
The 45-degree corner is "architecture" tho
But money spent on high-design is less money available for crack.
And while we're at it, why those 48" wide interior doors? Crack addicts are notoriously skeletal. Four could pass through at one time.
Idk, the 45 kinda transitions nicely to that space between the bath and the right side wall where I imagine the prostitution will happen.
Not sure the kitchen is necessary for this program under Assembly Group A. :) Plus smoking crack usually kills my appetite.
it's square
Who's the bedroom for? Non-smoking guests?
And the entire front wall appears rendered as glass. It is a storefront remodel?

I have a mattress revit family for just this purpose. And they laughed at me when they said it was a useless exercise. Who's laughing now?
But you tell them about futons for everyday sleeping. It will help you in making a plan.
needs a second exit, and door is swinging the wrong way. will prob need panic hardware too.
need dimensions, can it hold 6200 people?
how many in kangaroo units?
A Kangaroo on crack requires 600sqft. Don’t ask how I know this, let’s just say my anus still hurts.
Isn't crack smoking an "A" occupancy? I think you need a second exit.
multiple high hazard H-2 & H-3?
I have a funny story about the time a fire inspector inspected a meth lab, but it's too long for an internet post.
Maybe break into daily segments? I'd LOVE to hear that one.
If you build it, they will come...

Definitely not meeting egress, A-3, at 5 sf per occupant? No way.
It's a B occupancy as long as you're selling.
Well, they might be a toilet room short then.
Shit.
Forget the crack, put a double door on, a desk and you've got great space for an indoor ball pit!
is that an apartment in Red Hook? Looks very familiar.
