• In a living process, every step is done in such a way as to increase the beauty—the life—of the whole.quote0.881
  Encapsulates the chapter's main message.
• How, in a living process, do we take the first steps of design so that a beautiful, coherent whole begins to take shape?question0.859
  Transition to the problem of design process.
• Each step in a living process enhances the whole.claim0.853
  Core thesis of the chapter: all action in a living process aims at increasing the beauty, life, and coherence of the whole.
• In a living process, design steps and construction steps must be interleaved and entangled; the 20th-century separation does enormous violence to living structure.claim0.849
  States that the sequential separation of design and construction is incompatible with unfolding, requiring a new form of process.
• Every living process must necessarily be an adaptive, step-by-step process that creates unity by adapting the structure into harmony with what exists.claim0.843
• In each step of a living process one must be able to feel, ahead of time, the feeling which will later exist in the finished object, without yet knowing its form in detail.claim0.833
• Every living process is, throughout its length and breadth, congruent with feeling and governed by feeling.claim0.830
  Essential feature of living process, making phenomenological experience the central criterion for evaluation.
• If design and construction processes are living processes, each part will become itself, adapted to local conditions and individual people.claim0.827
  Core assertion that living process translates unique place and person into unique form.
