And while this is going on—as in nature—the fifteen properties that give life to the emerging centers develop easily.

• The 15 properties will necessarily come into being as a result of any life-creating process.claim0.848
  Assertion linking the theory of properties to the dynamics of unfolding.
• The fifteen properties emerge directly and inevitably from the unfolding of the whole; it is these fifteen properties that guide all differentiations during development.claim0.840
  Alexander's claim that living structure properties are not incidental but are the operative mechanisms of wholeness-preserving transformation
• The fifteen properties are the ways centers sustain each other's coherence, thereby contributing to the stability and robustness of natural systems.claim0.837
  Proposed as the reason the properties appear in functionally stable or semistable systems.
• Even with non-linear dynamics and complexity theory, the specific appearance of the fifteen properties and emergence of living centers in the world remains largely unexplained.claim0.826
  Alexander's critical assessment of the limits of current complexity science relative to his explanatory target
• The fifteen properties are the fifteen ways in which centers can enliven one another.claim0.823
  Recapitulation of the Book 1 definition, linking the properties to the mutual intensification of centers.
• The fifteen properties are not merely visual features which appear in works of art. ... they must be fundamental to the appearance of life in all centers that are generated or created in any system.quote0.815
  Foundation of the chapter's argument that the properties transcend aesthetics and are fundamental to all physical reality.
• The fifteen properties arise because they are the principal ways in which centers can be strengthened by other centersclaim0.815
  Central interpretive claim of the chapter: the fifteen properties are not independent observations but all reduce to ways that centers help each other come to life in space
• The fifteen properties come into existence naturally as a result of the structure-preserving process.claim0.814
  Claim that the properties are not applied artificially but are consequences of correct unfolding.
