In addition to this, the area should be able to provide inspiration from other forms of media. • This area also needs to serve as a useful space in which to create and prototype new games. Collectively, the area and its resources are the Creative Suite. • Requirements: • The creative area must provide storage for all of the reference materials. • The creative area must provide all of the tools that the design team members will need. • The creative area must provide a large flat workspace suitable for table top gaming.
