During his long career, the architect, engineer, mathematician, writer, philosopher, and educator contributed an astonishing range of ideas, designs, and inventions. He is particularly remembered for his work in the areas of practical, inexpensive shelter and transportation. His international career took off after the success of his geodesic domes in the 1950s. Fuller circled the globe repeatedly, lecturing internationally until his death.
