- Calatrava’s dynamic designs integrate technology and aesthetics producing structural forms that challenge traditional practice in both architecture and engineering.He is an organic architect who finds his inspiration in the human body and in nature and, because of his background in both architecture and engineering, he has learned to combine sculptural concepts with technology to create designs that are both visually striking and structurally daring."To me, there are two overriding principles to be found in nature which are most appropriate for building; one is the optimal use of material, the other the capacity of organisms to change shape, to grow, and to move."
