Space - Surveillance, Panopticon power


So the yellow bits indicate where the windows or glass walls are and what sort of view this creates from the rooms and office space. It clearly has a surveillance function, the position of the office is much like the position of the guard tower in Jeremy Bentham's Panopticon though not as deceptive in its power game but equally effective in keeping an eye on things.
I would think that the computer space, marked with a c on the map and indicated through two X's could be a spot where Young People could equally watch, for being watched, or keep a look out for approaching workers. As is the same with the space outside under the tree as shown on previous map blog.
