The beat of informality against the discipline of geometric order, can lead to the most splendid qualities.

Entities in the same semantic neighborhood but without a typed relation to this one — candidates for new edges or unrecognized duplicates.

• We hypothesize that a similar 'brutal' and purely geometric process always occurs somewhere in other kinds of unfolding that generate living order — in poetry, dance, social structure, planning, and family relationships.hypothesis0.800
  Extends the brutal geometry thesis beyond architecture into all creative and social domains; acknowledged as not yet confirmed with certainty
• This geometric substance that I call the brutal order comes, in fact, from the need to allow a certain regular rhythm of members to arise within an irregular envelope, because it is fitted to irregular circumstances.claim0.782
  Defines brutal order as the intersection of regular structural rhythm with irregular contextual fitting
• We cannot create living order only by concentrating on appearance; we must characterize the geometry that comes from living process.claim0.778
• It is this injection of definite, strong, geometrical order that allows the profound depth of the made thing — the building in the land — and it is from this that the order must and will arise.claim0.775
  The geometric injection is the causal source of the building's profound depth
• Making something that truly pleases requires hundreds of subtle judgments, each extracting what pleases more within the whole.claim0.768
  From the West Dean experience: the north wall alone required approximately 500 such judgments.
• The gist of the process, what I call the formal or brutal process, lies in the use of very simple geometry, first introduced with force, after one makes sure that the inspiration has arisen from the place, and from the introduction, then, of just enough syncopation into the order, so that it truly fits the necessities of site and place and time, without doing violence to them.claim0.768
  Summarizes the brutal process as force-first geometry, then syncopated adaptation to fit context without violence
• Projects with living structure will often tend to have an informal formal character of volume and space.claim0.766
  This morphological quality is visible in the Berryessa house plan and is typical of class-one structures.
• It is, indeed, this pattern of the middle-sized entities, which most strongly gives overall geometric order to the building. Without it, a building is very unlikely to be beautiful.claim0.763
  Identifies the pattern of middle-range entities as the primary source of overall geometric order and beauty
