Let's see...
in terms of subject matter I was thinking that doing something a little more organic, rather than relying on super sterile industrial design would be cool. The aliens buildings might be bioengeneered or built into and around the natural landscape, and the dominant pattern could be a spiraling vine shape. That way it would fit all three criteria. You'd have organic shapes as the infrastructure with housing integrated into it, and a launch platform as a central vocal point.
Also, I've decided to heed the advice I got for CC3 and attempt to make a finished illustration in a traditional medium. I was thinking about working over a pencilsketch with gouache and/or watercolors, but maybe doing something with colored pencils could work as well.
