David Georges Emmerich taught morphology at the Ecole des Beaux Arts, and later at the Paris-La Villette School of Architecture from 1965 to 1990. An architect and engineer by training, convinced of the modern movement's inability to provide mankind with the architectural space needed, his research led to constructive systems using cheap, industrialised components, with wide scope for self-help housing as well as a broad range of architectural structures. His extensive study of regular partitioning in space, natural shapes, the resistance of shapes and combinatorial analysis led him to developing stereometric systems; and, more specifically, to the invention of self-tensioning, or tensegrity, structures.
