Does it have to be like a logical design that map be in a normal map, or can it just be completely free design with simple rule being that it's a final point?
Free design, but the control point shouldn't feel like it doesn't belong there. Think about what would BLU want to takeover in that area/theme, what would they get for taking over it, then base it off those thoughts.

I mean, you can technically do whatever you want.

But be aware that at least in the past, most people that have posted their feedback (inc. mine) have taken into consideration how it feels like it's part of a bigger map rather than an isolated detail box.

I have a feeling we're going to see alot of cylindrical rooms and brushes for this contest.

I've been sitting on a 5cp map for a while that I hit a wall in, I actually really liked the layout of the last point so I think I might take that edit it, and detail everything really nicely

Also I just thought of this, does the control point have to be something you can interact with? Or can it just be a simple prop?

What’s more, we’ve got a whole other contest coming up - very soon indeed! (And yeah, they work really well together.) Watch this space - it’s going to be another great summer for TF2 mapping!

very soon = same week ... ._.

Well I need to practice detailing anyway, so this seems like a great contest. Count me in.

Can I make Red Spawn for the final control point?
It is part of the area as well so... is it allowed?

It would be just after the stairs.

If you can fit it in and feel like it adds to your final, then yes.
