First attempt screen shot of applying the arcaded effect to the nave where different densities and openess expose the church space tot he shopping space...and vice versa.

Y the Johnson Wax? Is it because the colums contain service infrastructure as well?
hello! nice pink background....
good start - but think the scale of these looks a bit....wonky, if that's the right word.
leave off the shops for now - it looks as though you've extruded them the full height of the nave structure - develop the structure independantly first and then next stage is how to integrate the shops. groovy.
looks promising but i suggest you to work first with lines and then with surfaces and 3d models. Like we said during tutorial, while we were sketching. Think first how the profiles work: for instance draw the profile at level 0, then at level +??? and then at top level. Those profiles, that are just lines have to be extremely well done, extremely well designed. After that you will move to 3d (is it loft? are there some other profiles? is the profile a flat line?...). But for a great 3d, you need a great and beautiful 2d as starting point. Work hard but don't rush to the 3D!
