Shapes such ar squares, circles and triangles are extended or rotated to form solids such as spheres and cylinders(circles), cones and pyramid (triangles) and cubes(squares)
A cylinder is formed by the extension
of circles.

A curved grid form (a rotated grid) can be seen on this building.

FORMAL COLLISION OF GEOMETRY
Formal collision is achieved by colliding forms together either by a circle and square or by a rotated grid. Some ways this collision can be done are linked, encompassing and interlocking.
This is encompassing where one shape (the circle) is surrounded by another shape (the square
