    Symmetry As Geometry: Kuwait International Airport

    New search for: Josefsson, Kristoffer

    Computer‐aided design (CAD) software has often been associated with the limitations of Euclidean geometry. Kristoffer Josefsson, a mathematician and specialist geometer employed in the Specialist Modelling Group (SMG) at Foster + Partners, explains how the symmetry‐encoded representation undertaken for Kuwait International Airport enabled the group to extend CAD tools for non‐Euclidean use.
