The [[Catalano House]], built in 1954 and which Catalano is best known for, was designed using a [http://ncsudesign.org/PDFs/HyperbolicParaboloid.pdf hyperbolic paraboloid roof.] Here is a picture of the original [http://ncsudesign.org/PDFs/house_large.pdf House.] The roof of the house, a curved structure that is built from straight elements (tongue and groove boarding) evolved from his studies on geometric and structural properties of hyperbolic paraboloids. These studies, which included testing of new materials like aluminum and thin-shell concrete, were published by the University of North Carolina in ''Structures of Warped Surface.''
Eduardo Catalano also created the environmental kinetic sculpture ''[[Floralis Genérica]]'' in [[Palermo, Buenos Aires|Palermo]], [[Buenos Aires]].
