Dymaxion

Dymaxion House as installed in Henry Ford Museum

Dymaxion is a term coined by architect and inventor Buckminster Fuller and associated with much of his work, prominently his Dymaxion house and Dymaxion car. A portmanteau of the words dynamic, maximum, and tension,[1] Dymaxion sums up the goal of his study, "maximum gain of advantage from minimal energy input".[2]
