ReplyDeleteAn architectural program generally includes a listing of each space or room required its use and the approximate size or number of occupants that will use it. Since you don't have that you should add a section listing the each tool and the quantity of each to be stored.
You should also include any special instructions that client discussed in relation to the items being stored.
I noticed in the plan that you included the refrigerator. I remember the client saying that would be moved to the upper building.
