Part 1

At 700ft

At 500ft

The main parameter I was interested in was height. As such, I flexed this and reported my results in square footage.

Building Height	Gross Floor Area
500	404172.46
600	407741
700	411286.54
800	14490.7
900	417305.79
1000	419761.34

Part 2

Top Height: 700ft; Top Width: 600ft

Top Height: 500ft; Top Width: 300ft

For my conceptual mass form, I decided to create a rhombus-shaped building that could maximize the lot size while also maintaining a distinct and almost pyramidal shape. I noticed how adjusting the top width and top height could dramatically increase the square footage. Thus, I flexed combinations of these two metrics:

Top Width	Top Height	Gross Floor Area	Gross Surface Area
