A building system comprises building module (16, 24) in the shape of a truncated tetrahedron where from a building can be constructed on a horizontal surface (18) by making horizontal tessellations of a first form (16) of module where the module (16) sits on a hexagonal faces and a second form (24) of module where the module (24) sits upon a triangular face, tessellation being achieved when a hexagonal panel (20) of a first form (16) of module is abutted against a hexagonal panel (20) of a second form of module. Multi-storey buildings can be constructed using the upper surfaces created from contiguous topmost panels (26, 28) being employed as the horizontal surface (18, 26, 28) for construction of an upper storey tessellation. Alignment of upper (26, 28) and lower like panels between the upper surfaces of one storey and the lower surfaces of the next higher storey permits automatic creation of utility ducts (30) within the multi storey building. Use of single building modules is also shown in the form of a workshop or outdoor office and in the form of a summerhouse that can have a sectional hexagonal door in the form of six hinged triangular sections that meet, when closed, at the hexagon centre and can be opened by a winch mechanism. |
