This amazing paper outlines a fabrication technique in which pieces of curved concrete are casted on top of one another, then bound together with post-tensioned cables. As an efficient and beautiful building technique, it is extremely interesting. 

The paper goes very good detail on how this model was built; it was written by Lluis Enrique and Joseph Schwartz
