I think it is very important to clarify your position on the Icon. How will your design support this position, how will your position influence your design.
Scale will be a very important issue with the icon. the first thing you should do is reevaluate the scale of your mass. This will then require you to mutate the cells to accommodate this new scale. density and rhythm will have to change to support the structure of the icon. what are the architectural elements that produce icon within cathedral design. look to emphasize and exaggerate these elements. (for instance i think you should look into the relevance of the tower, the spire, the vertical reach of the cathedral. How can we recognize the building as an icon.
Work more with the geometry of your forms and use it to produce clarity and hierarchy of performance in your drawings. There are moments (around the pores) where the geometry is strongly related to the evolution of the form and behavior of the cell. Being deliberate with the geometry at all scales and areas of the project with help to add nuance to the design and support the argument for survival.
