In terms of scale and function, your examples are not similar at all...

The shell is light and with a delicate network of connections, almost like a space frame.

The fabric formed concrete has a very discrete 2d lattice network mapped to a 3d surface.

Which effect are you after?

Thanks for your response.

The examples from the dezeen homepage should be only for suggestion.

My effect which i must get after this work is a natural bearing structure like Glass sponges, it should be a part of the main construction from a highrise.
