Happy Pi Day

It is Pi day, in those nations where the month comes first and it is 3.14, when we celebrate all things mathematical and round, and top it off with a bite of pie. We recall on this day Rolf Disch's solar powered house that tracks the sun, so that its triple-glazed front can face the warming sun in winter and show its well insulated back in summer. Then there is the wonderful water tower conversion by zecc arcitechten of Utrecht. A pie shaped kitchen would be an interesting place to work, and then there is Eli Attia's way too big Round House. Happy Pi day!
