• In a living design process, every step must be concerned with the whole and must make the feeling of the whole more profound.claim0.815
  Restatement of the central principle in the context of the Claremont Canyon example.
• How, in a living process, do we take the first steps of design so that a beautiful, coherent whole begins to take shape?question0.812
  Transition to the problem of design process.
• It is, ultimately, the process, not the design, which gives life to a building.claim0.805
  Emphasizes process over blueprint.
• These step-by-step processes are very simple, virtually unhampered by concepts or by too much thought about the intricacy of design.claim0.777
  The commonality underlying all the examples of living process.
• In modern architecture, neither design nor construction typically works step by step; instead there is a fixed end-state produced without realistic feedback.claim0.774
  Contrast between living process and current architectural practice.
• In a living process, design steps and construction steps must be interleaved and entangled; the 20th-century separation does enormous violence to living structure.claim0.773
  States that the sequential separation of design and construction is incompatible with unfolding, requiring a new form of process.
• When the process is correct, the creation of life follows almost automatically, without effort.claim0.771
• If design and construction processes are living processes, each part will become itself, adapted to local conditions and individual people.claim0.771
