This model demonstrates systems of defining space with sixteen hyperbolic paraboloid ("hypar") surfaces arranged over a square plan. Anticlastic shells, featuring straight-edged "hypar" surfaces, provide structural elegance and efficiency. The configuration highlights the unique geometric interaction and aesthetic possibilities of "hypar" surfaces within architectural design.
