we demonstrated a system for building "Many-Handled Surfaces" modeled after chemical molecular bonding geometry extending techniques developed by Richard Buckminster Fuller. The Wolfram Demonstration is an interactive version which assembles structures of triangulated surface patches along backbones of tetrahedral or octahedral lattice topologies.
The construction method is modular such that the construction components can be "thickened" and composed for 3D printing.

I think that this naturally draws one to imagine constructing these objects at architectural scale.
