A building structure formed of at least one saddle element defining a plurality of edges and rigid structural elements extending along the edges of each of the at least one saddle element, the rigid structural elements being characterized in that they lie along diagonals of sides of a rectangular parallelepiped forming part of a modular array of rectangular parallelepiped geometrical structures underlying the at least one saddle element and may include octet-like beams or octet-like trusses Multiple saddle elements, either of a similar type or of varying types, may be combined into a wide variety of possible structures Saddle elements can be a tensioned membrane element or any other suitable material
