Various myths surround the discovery of the so-called Spherical Solution, Utzon's unified answer to the problems of buildable shells. The iconic sculptural form of the Sydney Opera House essentially relies on the form of these shells, so the importance of finding the best solution to the roof cannot be underestimated.

The Sydney Opera House is one of the 20th century's most iconic buildings. It broke new ground for design and engineering around the world.. This became known as the 'spherical solution' and eventually 2,194 pre-cast concrete sections each weighing 15 tons were formed on site to create the flowing roofline people recognise today.

On 29 January 1957, when Jørn Utzon's sail-like sketches were announced as the winning design for the Sydney Opera House, Utzon had a problem — he didn't know exactly how he would build them. The problem still wasn't solved two years later when construction began on 2 March 1959.. Instead, with shells having a common spherical geometry.

The Spherical Solution would become the binding discovery that allowed for the unified and distinctive characteristics of the Sydney Opera House to be realised finally. By any standard it was a beautiful solution to crucial problems: it elevated the architecture beyond a mere style - in this case that of shells - into a more permanent idea.

As construction of the podium began in Sydney, Jørn Utzon and his team of architects back in Hallebaek explored how to build the Opera House's shell-shaped roof. Between 1958 and 1962, the roof design for the Sydney Opera House evolved through various iterations as Utzon and his team pursued parabolic, ellipsoid and finally spherical.

The Spherical Solution, which defines the final form of the roof of the Sydney Opera House, is one ideal example from many of the use of natural forms in Utzon's approach to architecture. By defining parts of the surface of the sphere that best suited the existing shapes of the shells, each new form could be extracted.
