Main Floor Feedback - Art Work

"It is very posh and spacious. But where are the rest of the computers? Also, you should put some sculptures or art in the big space when you first walk in."

"Really interesting design. The glass wall between browsers and the quiet study area is brilliant, along with the quotes on walls. Increased seating is good but alot of the areas seem very bare and can fit more seating into them without becoming crowded. Stools at the benches along the windows would be handy, as well as more seating in the Browsers area. The walls seem really bare as well. The "picture frames" by browsers look like they should have pictures in them (though it looks like they're just supposed to be empty). All in all a good job, but expected something more impressive seems how it took them a month and a half longer to complete it."

"Needs more colour. Potted plants. Artwork."

"I think it looks great! Very modern. I have three suggestions for future improvements: 1) Art and culture exhibits/displays in the entrance because it looks a little bare. 2) Microwaves on the main floor so people can bring their lunches and eat while they study. It's hard to eat lunch in the SLC because it's so crowded. 3) A drink machine for students studying late after Browser's closes."

"Love the fact that there are tons more computers on the main floor. Great new updated look with nice furniture-very roomy! The only thing is that the front looks very bare....perhaps adding some art work or a display of some sort would make it less "cold" looking. "

"It looks amazing, though it needs a wow! factor in the middle of the floor as it looks too spacious... a fountain or a large statue would really enhance that space."

"It looks great! I especially love the automatic doors and the new computer stations. I do have two suggestions though. First, the cafe (Browsers) could use more seating. Secondly, the foyer right before you reach the information desk is too empty. Perhaps a waterfall or artwork such as some statues would make it feel less barren. Otherwise, I think it's great!"

"It is extremely SEXY! However, there should be a couch in the cafe, on the wall with the huge frames. OR, have artworks in the frames. It is a little empty."
