Competition for Paris 2012 Olympic Landmark | GEORGE KATODRYTIS









"A proposal for a landmark in Paris, made with galvanized stainless steel. Genetic algorithms and programming scripts were used to generate the skin lattice that on one hand appears random but on another it follows a very strict and precise geometry of an envelope. A perforated metal skin defines another enclosure that contains a spiral ramp leading to the top, at the viewing platform."
