Abstract
In their simplest and most elementary form, the structures used in design science are the three-dimensional version of the planar interlacing (biaxial and triaxial) that has always been used for the construction of gratings, baskets weavings and textures. The reciprocal frames can be considered as a premise to the tensegrity structures, which in turn can be considered as a premise to the geodesic structures. Geodesic structures arise from the correct subdivision of polyhedral shapes. The nascent reciprocal joint as a simple, natural and economic form, can be reworked towards the starred joint where the rods contribute towards a single junction point. The structural stability of natural structures is guaranteed by the presence of the triangle. A triangulated structure, optimized for use, does not require additional materials to ensure its resistance.
