An Introduction to Domino Architecture

Domino architecture is to domino is what calligraphy is to martial arts, it's meditative, it's challenging and once you set a stone in your building you can never take it back.

There are only 2 rules to Domino architecture:

1 -You can use only domino tiles to build your building.
2 - You can use only one set of dominoes (limited to 28 tiles when using the double 6 set, 55 tiles with a double 9 set and so on).

Now that we covered that, I have to mentioned the other rules for domino architecture, which actually also apply to many other fields of work and day to day situations:

1 -Know your building stones. domino tiles are not perfect, in fact they are quite twisted and react quite differently from another under a pressure of the domino tiles above them. Ironically in some sets the "heaviest" tile (the one with most points) is also the lightest (the one that weights the fewer milligrams), this comes into real effect when expending your building sideways.

(I usually name building of this type as temple or tombs)

2 -For every action there is a reaction. as you add more tiles to your building you'll see it twitch and shake and in most cases fall. Again if you know your building stone you can plan ahead and avoid it.

3 -Bodies at rest tend to stay at rest. Try not to move the table that much as you build, or infect try and not to move it at all. Also using a hard base to build on ( like a domino box, or its cover) may give you the chance to build higher.

4 -Pay attention! like mention above, always check how a stone reacts when you place it or place another stone above it. Like in health: early detection = prevention, finding an unstable joint in the beginning of the building process and fixing/adjusting will save you the trouble of redoing it all over again. also the higher you build - the more attention you need to give to the building and the more aware you need to be of your motions and movements.

(Straight Tower - With a 28 tiles this 14 floors (and a 1/6Th) tall building is not the highest structure possible, with a small adjustment to the top and a lot of paying attention you can reach a height 15 or16 floors)

(A type of Chain Tower. short and sturdy, these type of towers rarely collapse.)

PS.
The 3 'kinder' dog performing magnificent acrobatic acts at the top of the tower are called 'The Piggy Wiggies'. I usually used them as the final test for my structures stability.
