Abstract
The research performed a geometric analysis of stereotomic interlocking systems and the principles governing the tessellation of Euclidean space in order to explore the possibilities of parametrically designing the surfaces of envelopes. In particular, the contribution focuses on the study of the interlocking systems created by assembling cubic platonic solids, thus making it possible to obtain a hexagonal pattern. Geometries visible in nature show that this kind of hexagonal tessellation optimises spatial distribution and the properties of geometric and structural stability.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
