Courtyard ideas

Just some ideas for courtyard extension. I prefer the third drawing with a larger courtyard to the right and clothing to the left. It seems to be the most intimate without being too small as is the case with drawing two.

Im beginning to thing 9m wide is too big for the commercial block, that it would just be normal sized instead of small and stacked up. would 6m wide be too thin? considering i have to include storage/staff/public facilities aswell? Help?

Block One Layout

Block One in comparison with Pentonville road. The original path width was more or less 3m, with the addition of block one the pavement is expanded to 'hug' the buildings first floor outline allowing a larger area for the public and a posibility of creating a social space like the LaForet entrance.
This is the commercial block with 14 shops in total, it is 7 floors high to mirror the commercial buildings opposite, correct me if im wrong about that. To keep the building wall-like i have eliminated circulation space and circulation is through the shops themselves. So you would have to go through H+M to get to Topshop for example... Mwuahaha
Loading access is at either end of the block, I didnt want to add extra space for direct loading so this would have to be done within the shops themselves, is this a stupid idea? I kind of like the idea of torturing the shop keepers and having the 'shop workings' and 'shoppers' integrated.

Maquette No.2

This is from the 'Make your own balloon' kit. The kit is now empty and I have failed to make one "Balloon".

I dont think this really fits what im doing but maybe it will inspire someone else?
