This structural mode is the culmination of an exploration into the work and research of Buckminster Fuller and Robert Le Ricolet.
Tensegrity or integrated tension is a structural theory wherein compression members are only connected by a network of tensioning cables. It is a pure structural system eliminating redundant structural members.
Steel cables are anchored to custom 3D printed components that tie the tensioning members to copper compression tubes.
