Abstract

The design and construction of space frame environments may be helped by the use of analogies to conventional environments. A translator is described which is a warped cube with constituent parts. Examples of the use of the translator are given which allow us to see the same object as it would appear in cubic and 'tetric' space. The implications of the translator are discussed.
