Shown is a section through the main stair and the sliver bridge between the two buildings. Major design elements are labeled, future details will explain foundation connections, green roofs, and curtain walls, etc.

Anne, this is an informative section. It shows most of your building systems, including stairs and elevator. Now the critics can of course go at it, it would be good to see the elevator pit, grade beams and pile caps, perimeter drainage, etc. What I would like you to do for your own benefit, is taking a red pencil and marking the insulation layer between every cold/warm temp change (incl. garage to upstairs spaces / natural sliver). This will help you to develop one or two more details dealing with the skin.
I don’t quite understand from your building systems diagram and the section where your hydronic radiant system is located, ceiling or floor?
You are indicating arrows and thermal mass. Isn’t the section cut more or leas east-west? Do you get much solar gain in the east(-north?) facing curtain wall?
Anne, you might want to generate another building section that is perpendicular to the slivers. So that you can explore the openness vs. solid of the slivers when they meet the building.
