Prompt
Design a lakeside restaurant in the manner of Félix Candela as eight hyperbolic paraboloid shells radiating from a single point to form a groined vault only four centimetres thick, its rim rippling in a wavy octagonal edge. Compose the white concrete shell seen from outside with glass filling the space between each undulating lobe, the razor-thin edge silhouetted against the sky, calm canal water and chinampa vegetation, bright high sun making the shell glow, low view from the water's edge, 24mm lens, architectural photography, ultra photorealistic, 8K
