This common room is mostly in the shadow, due to the large overhanging viewing gallery on the second floor. This viewing gallery can be reached by stairs and lift from the reception area on the ground floor and provides space for match viewing as well as holding larger board meetings. There is inside viewing provided near the high windows on the East, as well as outside balcony viewing, which is 750mm lower than the inside, to ensure that both seating can be used at the same time. Since most important matches will be held in the afternoon or evening, the entire viewing gallery and balcony will be in the cooler shaded side of the building.[/vc_project_detail][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image="3084" img_size="full"][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image="3085" img_size="full" alignment="center"][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width="1/2"][vc_project_detail image="3086"]<em>The second phase will be design on the second floor, for 52 female cadets, with similar residential area's as provided on the first floor.
