| * [[Inflatable Inspirations]]: 15 sections of visual -Inflatable Inspirations-. Each section by far don't give a complete overview in its field but I hope all works are, in one way or another, inspiring and can lead to new vibrations... |
| |
| *[[pneumatology]]: Lightness as a state of being. Some problem domains in our contemporary architecture. A summary of Christopher Alexander’s -Pattern Language-. [[Pattern_language]] can be a tool to create a timeless way of building. |
| |
| *[[An Inflatable Pattern Language]]: A despription of the patterns based on the structures of `The Architects on Air (UK), which can be useful for anyone interested in building ‘living inflatable structures’. |
| |
| *[[Inflatable structures]]: An inventory of links for innovative //inflatable//- manufacturers, research labs, producers and other people working with inflatables both from the artistic and in the technological field, and links with innovative //inflatable// architecture, objects, & robots\\ |
