I think this is my third attempt at this ship. But I've finally come up with a design that I like.
<tldr>This is my version of the Enterprise as a replacement for the NX-01</tldr>

Here's a closeup of the main module. The figure standing on it gives scale. However, the orientation of the deck is perpendicular to the hull of the ship. This allows for acceleration based artificial gravity.
the large dome on the front is the navigational deflector. The lower circle used to be the bridge window, but when I flipped the deck orientation it became the housing for a sensor array. Though the bridge will still be in the lower cylinder. That ball on the side is modular Mission Module.
Here's the classic view of the ship from the Recreation Deck of the NCC-1701 refit. The warp reactor is house in the aft half. The long stalk between the two parts of the ship is to protect the crew against the potential radiation hazards in the engineering section. Pardon the mess.
This is the back view of the Mission Module. It's the dome on the side of the main module. These are modular pods that can be hot swapped depending on mission requirements. You can see by the figure here the orientation of the decks.
Here is the observation dome which also functions as the control booth during shuttle launches and retrieval. You can also see the shuttle bay hatches open. the cylinders inside represent the shuttles. These are moved around on rails between the storage, repair, and launch bays.
This is the Enviropod. It is a multi role craft. During high radiation events its additional layer of shielding can protect the entire crew. All important ships functions can be controlled from here. Equipped with warp drive it can also function as a long range cargo shuttle. It also has reentry capabilities and can be used an a lifeboat for the entire crew.
Here is the main crew quarters. The bunks are four deep and hot bunking is practices. Each bunk comes equipped with bedding straps to prevent the crew from being thrown about during different maneuvers. So the bunks can be used during artificial gravity and zero gravity situations. The interior of each bunk will allow for customization and personal effects for up to three crew members. Other items will be stored in lockers.
This is the long range shuttle craft, unlike the other shuttles it is capable of warp travel. Because of this hardware, the interior is very small. The interior space is reduced further because of the radiation shielding needed for long rang missions. It is capable of transporting up to four people and limited amount of cargo.
Here you can see the cramped interior.
You'll notice the fifth person laying down in this image. That is a place holder for where the toilet facilities will go.
Because of the requirement to store the shuttle in a small space and ingenious method was developed to stow and then deploy the warp ring. On the farthest left the ring segments are stowed. In the middle the ring segments are extended outward. Then the on the right, the front two segments are moved rearward and locked into place to complete the ring.

So I scaled it back down. Fortunately, this wont affect my bridge very much. It will probably affect the crew quarters and it affected my shuttles. Which leads me on to my next topic...shuttles.
