what is the best shape recommended for a space station apart from a torus ring?

Dear Nandu,

An orbital space colony is a giant spacecraft big enough to live in. Orbital colonies will travel endlessly through space while the folks inside play, work, socialize, and (hopefully not too often) fight. Mankind has never built a space colony; the closest we''ve come is a series of space stations. A space station isn''t a place to live, but rather a place to work. The difference between a space station and a space colony is the difference between a work camp and home.

Living inside a space colony will, in many ways, be like living on Earth. People will have houses or apartments. They will go to work and to school. There will be shops, sports teams, concerts and movies. People will go to parties with their friends, just like on Earth. But there will be differences as well.
