In designing the interior of a physical fitness center, Sybil pays attention to sight lines and the arrangement of rooms and equipment to avoid the fishbowl effect common to such structures. She wants to give people working out a sense of privacy and isolation. Accordingly, she designs the center’s workout areas to have lots of short walls and angles to reduce the number of people visible in any given direction. In reviewing her plans, the client is dismayed. What do you predict are potential problems with Sybil’s design? (Select all that apply.) The complicated nature of Sybil’s design means that she is probably in violation of numerous codes governing the construction of such structures.

It would be impossible to have fitness classes because the trainer and the class members wouldn’t be able to see each other as they work out.

The lack of sight lines that can encompass entire areas means lots of hidden corners that can create safety and security concerns.

The labyrinth effect of so many short walls and angles likely means that the facility doesn’t make effective use of natural light coming in from outside.
