The Cantilevered Structure:

This structure was built in 1990 with George Hasslein as the advisor of architecture. In this particular building, nothing touches the ground. The load was transferred by cables up to the mass then back down to the ground plaque on the base. The mass of the structure was built by only one female and one male architecture students at a sport shop, however, others helped with the welding.
