We present a method for electronic structure calculations that retains all of the advantages of real space and addresses the inherent inefficiency of a regular grid, which has equal precision everywhere. The computations are carried out on a {\em regular} mesh in {\em curvilinear space}, which allows natural and efficient decomposition on parallel computers, and effective use of iterative numerical methods. A novel feature is the use of error analysis to optimize the curvilinear grid for highly inhomogeneous electronic distributions. We report accurate all-electron calculations for H$_2$, O, and O$_{2}$.
