process work

I've been working very diligently with my project the past few days and have some more process work to share.  below are just a few sketches that I did that start to show how the building is starting to take form.  the main things I am trying to accomplish right now are a building that has a feasible structure, response to surrounding environment, sustainable energy production, feasible mechanical systems/zones, and an overall form that evokes a positive reaction from on-lookers.  right now, this is what I'm thinking:

"THE THREE FINS" control:

1)  Structure

2)  Light

3)  Wind

4)  Unit Creation

Using mainly these materials:

1)  Blue Glass

2)  White Concrete

The "Three Fins" start to define the number of units in the
building.  They serve as the main structural elements containing
the elevators, exit stairs, and mechanical rooms and all of the
rooms branch off from there.  

Looking at sq footage closer I realized that I can squeeze in one more unit.
This allows me to offer multiple living arrangements and will give a
prospective occupant the option of a specific unit (price/sq ft/# of bedrooms/etc).

Getting down to a detailed scale, the "Fins" will serve as wind catchers that draw
natural ventilation into rooms through two techniques.  The first allows a user to
open a vent in a room where the ventilation flows through the wall, and the second
option is to open a window on either side of the unit creating a +/- affect which
draws the air throughout the entire space at a higher rate.
