"Architecture is the pure art of l-grade art" (M. Brion). It is, among the arts, one of the most abstract fields, and between sciences, among the most concrete, between man-made works being the very image of sustainability.
Generated by material and spiritual requirements, architecture is a geometric product of human intelligence and sensitivity...
Modernizing methods, structuring in such a complex field in which the rigors of logic and reason interfere with aesthetic values ​​to indiscernible can add new valences to the human framework.
"The whole architecture can undoubtedly be built without resorting to structures that describe the impossible world of geometric fiction. But without them, the progress of the spiritual universe will remain barren, perhaps even completely vain, because no one yet suspects that these frivolous fictions are the prefiguration a future universe ..."(Imre Toth)
The envelope surface shown in FIG. 8.36 is another example of transforming, "transfiguring" the scaffolds, the Möbius Benz structures into architecture. On a convenient scale, this surface can be engaged in the multi-function megastructure competition.
The model is the Möbius Band, carried out between 4 points of a giant cube, 4 cardinal points of architecture, which connect the sky with the earth.
This shell-model speaks for itself:
  • stability and maximum solidity
  • resistance to earthquakes, natural or provoked calamities
  • open to nature
  • simplicity and transparency
  • flexibility in choosing the right solutions
