By taking a Hyperbolic Helicoid and putting it through a Mobius Transformation, we can arrive at a beautiful form that seems to curtsy with grace. A careful arraying of this form can then lead to an incredible structure that is not only sinuous and mesmerizing but is also a testament to the intimate relationship that mathematics has with architecture. However, in a world consumed by ego, money, and fear, it is unlikely that this structure would ever leave it's surreal canvas. Yet, a dismal situation is not fate! Childlike wonder and hope may yet liberate our architectural creation.
This is the second work in a two-part series: Hyperbolic Helicoid and Child.
