I know I have mentioned this before; I really enjoy your presentations. The information you convey in both the physical and the metaphysical is seamless. I really enjoy the integration of both, and I look forward to more.
You have certainly made some interesting progess and yet I can still see the stack of note paper in your design. As others have said, you seem to have a unique ability to find a good idea and see it through to the end.
I still get a fantastic sense of vertigo from these plans, and a similar visceral response to the model. The section isn't hitting me yet, and I think you know it. it doesn't reveal much more to me than the exterior conditions. There is limited spatial expression in this section. Maybe try peeling the Dartmouth street facade off the model and see what that yields.
I so applaud your precise thinking at each step of this project. Your rigor and sense of direction, or pursuit of direction have been evident at each turn. Within the model I find your original sketch, but so much more. Time is linked at the level of the facade as well as at the level of user experience. Apple is not about time, but your solution makes them be about this. Apple is also not about color, (they are trying to be colorless minimalists). But again, this solution reinterprets their original identity in a way that could easily build on their marketing direction and identify an architecture that is simultanously retro active and forward looking. This seems to be the birth of a younger sibling; one who resembled the elder, but is imbued with promise, hope and anticipation of the best days ahead. In this way, it does not reject the past, but embraces it as an institution and builds on its foundations. As Bruce Mau says, "standing on someone's shoulders allows you to see further" into the future.
I am orange with anticipation for the arrival of your package.
I agree with Rick. You can see the original stack of paper in your building still and I like that. I hope the interior resolves as nicely as the exterior is showing. I am wondering if you have any further sections? Have you though about building this model's interior in sketchup? I've seen how the plans translate form lines in the site and how the exterior is shaped, but how does the floor slabs look stacked? What type of interior view/experience do you have standing on the ground floor? On top the "Eye Tower" looking down into the space? I can't wait to see more posts!

WOW!
I want to shop there!
You have a style; and it is certainly your own.
