Detail drawings are crucial on my sustainable envelope system...
I've chosen to do a green roof detail and gabion wall detail...The gabion wall act as a crucial part to cool down the building in summer and passively heat the building in early spring or end of autumn. In a hot summer day, the thermal mass of the gabion wall get heated up by the sun or temperature, therefore having a spray water system to spray onto the gabion wall to cool down the gabion wall in order to allow hot air gets transfer thru the cool stones and cool down by the water to allow mild air to cross ventilate the building...

In a winter day, the sun will heat up the wall and when the air breeze thru the heated gabion wall, it will be heat up slightly and provide a hotter air into the building for heating.
THe greenroof, as mention before very good insulation for heating and cooling and sound....which is done in a practical manner which seems to be buildable from that detail...
