Louis Kahn · Structural Design
Louis Kahn with fascinating Anne Tyng both explored in late 50s singular structural models for a tower design based on geometry with triangular mesh into facades, this supposed a visionary statement on architecture concept so valid in the currect times.
Here is a similar concept, a tower which combines modular homes with vertical farms, designed to be build with CLT in India: +

Folds in Recurring Patterns Form the Tessellated Origami Sculptures by Goran Konjevod
Whether folding flat, square tessellations or rounded forms that billow from a central point, origami artist Goran Konjevod(previously) focuses on the tension inherent in a single sheet of material. His sculptures draw on his background in mathematics and computer science and configure precise geometries, fanned pleats, and small woven pieces that appear to be individual strips threaded together rather than a series of carefully aligned creases. Each form is a meticulous blend of texture, pattern, and dimension that’s translated into elegant, abstract constructions through repetitive folds.
