Mother worked that 1933 World's Fair. She would have loved this.
Why stop with a Doric column? Why not Corinthian?

I’m an old school engineer
The greatest battles in history are between us and architects
Basically architects have no idea of construction codes strength of materials materials science spans etc
But yet they try to dictate such to construction and engineering
Makes them perfect liberals

When they started using AI to design things for the most structural strength with the least weight or amount of materials, the AI tended to come up with very spiderweb-like designs. That’s probably the inspiration for the spiderweb-style house.

Interesting. May all architects be forced to live and work in their designs.
