Requests, pinned rooms and common rooms live on one screen — nothing needs a second app open beside it.
A real calendar, not a blind request — students see every existing booking before choosing a slot.
Status is colour-coded — pending, approved, rejected — so a secretary never has to open a request to know where it stands.
Pinned rooms surface first; the rest are grouped by the same room types laid out in Context.
Every field a secretary needs to decide fast — name, designation, date, time, purpose — travels with the request.
