Study_2 on Zaha Hadid's Mobile Art Pavilion

From its central axis, the practice created a polar grid that divides the torus into 36 segments each of 10 degrees.
This pavilion is made up of hundreds of moulded fiber reinforced plastic (FRP) mounted on a skeletal steel frame. Each piece had to fit together like a giant jig-saw puzzle. Width of each panel dose not exceed 7.38 feet, packed in 51 shippable containers.

The minimum or smallest bounding or enclosing box for a point set in N dimensions is the box with the smallest measure (area, volume, or hypervolume in higher dimensions) which all the points lie within.
