Spiral architecture & Conscious Inspiration

Architect Zvi Hecker is one of the leading architects who have studied and planned Spiral architecture….:

Zvi Hecker’s quote: “A building is based on the precision of an idea on which variations are made. With the Spiral House, the idea itself is very simple; therefore the variations can be very complex”.

Frank Lloyd Wrights’ Guggenheim Museum, I believe, is the most influential example of Spiral architecture in the 20th century.
