The shape of a falling water drop can only be created dynamically, step by step, not by a static act of draftsmanship or design.

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

• The shapes of a truly living architecture can only be of this unfolded nature, created step by step dynamically, both in conception and construction.claim0.800
  Universal claim about all living architecture.
• It is my contention that the shapes of a truly living architecture… can only be of this nature. They must have been created step by step—dynamically—both while they were being thought out and while they were being made.quote0.792
  Key normative claim about the geometric requirement for living architecture.
• The beautiful shape of the bridge was actually generated, dynamically, during the process of construction.claim0.789
  Observation about the Golden Gate Bridge, supporting that process can generate form.
• Many modern designs could not, under any circumstances, have been created by a structure-preserving step-by-step process; they are conceptual and barren.claim0.771
  In-principle impossibility claim.
• In modern architecture, neither design nor construction typically works step by step; instead there is a fixed end-state produced without realistic feedback.claim0.768
  Contrast between living process and current architectural practice.
• The creation of living structure cannot be done in any other way.claim0.764
• How, in a living process, do we take the first steps of design so that a beautiful, coherent whole begins to take shape?question0.754
  Transition to the problem of design process.
• Living structure in buildings can only be GENERATED. It cannot be created by brute force from designs.claim0.745
  Core thesis of Book 2, stated at the transition to Part Two.
