Sphere

With 'Prominent Cube' collection we set the ball rolling on shape exploration. This time around, digging deeper into geometric and philosophical perfection we arrive at the sphere; and the notion of endlessness; and Pi. Darren Aronofsky's legendary 'Pi' protagonist said it: 'Something's going on. It has to do with that number. There's an answer in that number...You see the simplicity of the circle. You see the maddening complexity of the endless string of numbers, 3.14 off into infinity.' And if there is maddening complexity about the circle, there is innumerable times more magic, irrational beauty and opportunity about the sphere. Thus the fact that - unlike cube - spheres pose a significant challenge to construction industry, makes them no less sought-after among architects, especially whenever a social or scientific issue has to be addressed. Ideologies, micro-nations, escapist imaginary realms and whole utopian cities have all been able to find their best, most categorical manifestation in globes of their own.
