Architecture Beyond the Cupola : Inventions and Designs of Dante Bini
Inventions and innovations in the design and construction of concrete shell -- The Cupola as a new “Primitive Hut” -- Beyond the cubic prison -- Open, Sesame. Get into the Binishell -- The lunar base: intersections and repetitions -- The lost centre. Dante Bini’s legacy beyond the Binishell system -- Who is Dante Bini? -- Bibliography, List of Images, List of Binishells.
This book reviews Dante Bini’s inventions and designs, focusing on his form-resistant Binishell and other pneumatic construction systems. Dante Bini’s double profile of architect and builder underpins the narrative of the entire book. It is used to analyse the evolution of the early reinforced-concrete Binishell patent into a variety of automated construction systems based on the use of air. Dante Bini has always been quite proactive in promoting his work and disseminating the results of his experimentations and achievements via journal articles, conference presentations and public talks; promotional brochures in multiple languages were also prepared to export and license his patents in various countries, from Italy to the Americas and Australia. Despite this, a rigorous study of Dante Bini’s work is still unavailable, and the relevance of this figure to contemporary architecture has yet to be discussed comprehensively. This book fills in this gap and arrives at the right time: during the last two decades, there has been an exponential interest in shell and spatial structures, particularly concerning the use of complex geometries and innovative construction techniques. This book will be of interest to academics in architectural design, theory and construction history, and practitioners and students interested in expanding their knowledge in the design and construction of shell and spatial structures.
