• Answer:

  Make the building look amazing, something eye-catching, yet still complimenting surrounding areas (design surrounding areas if you don't already have it). There are two ways of approaching this; 1) Design the outside of the building an force your way in (most architects do this). So you would start with designing and exterior, and then design the interior to fill out the shell. 2) Design the inside of the building, allowing it to open outwards (organic architecture). Here you start with the inside and design the inside spaces, and allow the exterior to just mould once you have the interior sorted. Which you choose really depends on your personal style. I tend to design the exterior and force my way in, because I'm more interested in the exterior and how it compliments (or doesn't) the environment. However, on my latest project I am attempting organic architecture by designing a house in which I will design all the rooms first, then arrange them to make the general building shape. I think the latter would suit your project more, but I'm sure if you choose the former it would still work great. Good luck! :)
