abstract = {This article examines the shape of a surface obtained by a hanging flexible, inelastic material with prescribed area and boundary curve. The shape of this
surface, after being turned upside down, is a model for cupolas (or domes) under the
simple hypothesis of compression. Investigating the rotational examples, we provide
and illustrate a novel design for a roof which has the extraordinary property that its
shape, although natural, is modeled by a surface of revolution whose axis of rotation
is horizontal.},
