3D model of a roof structure for the new Court House in Paris. What makes this design sophisticated is the fact that it deals with fractal geometry, not euclidian - or not much. This huge glass and copper structure, which I designed for Ameller Dubois & Associates Architects, has little chance to ever appear in the Paris skyline : dozens, maybe hundreds of other architects from all over the world, are currently working on the same project. Against each other, that is. We call it a competition. In the end, the best project doesn't win. And dozens, possibly hundreds, of architects from all over the world get frustrated and somewhat bitter. That's architecture, folks !... Still want to be an architect ?
