I just spoke with my uncle who was an engineer with ARUP, he basically said from what he understands for it to work we need anchor points with weight in them which perform as the compound structures then from there the cables etc extend. All the cables tie to these anchored points.
  So, i think what we need are innovative anchor points that don't look like shit, we cannot physically anchor anything to the ground at customs house obviously so basically we design weighted compound structures at which points the structure is anchored to.

Also i just watched a video about tensegrity and the key is an elastic material of some sort to connect the solid components like an elastic band or you can buy several types of elastics.
START THINKINGGGGGGGGGGG
