These step-by-step processes are very simple, virtually unhampered by concepts or by too much thought about the intricacy of design.

• In modern architecture, neither design nor construction typically works step by step; instead there is a fixed end-state produced without realistic feedback.claim0.838
  Contrast between living process and current architectural practice.
• Step-by-step processconcept0.834
  The idea that living structure emerges only through a sequence of small, structure-preserving moves, not by a single grand blueprint.
• Many modern designs could not, under any circumstances, have been created by a structure-preserving step-by-step process; they are conceptual and barren.claim0.833
  In-principle impossibility claim.
• In every case, the process is straightforward, simple, and above all free: it allows the reality of the situation, the human needs, human joys, to find expression.claim0.819
  A summary generalization from the examples about the nature of living processes.
• There are more bad next steps than good ones in a design process; typically perhaps 90-95 out of 100 possible next steps make the thing worse.claim0.811
  Quantitative intuition to justify radical skepticism toward early ideas.
• The process of design is an empirical matter: which step has the deepest feeling can be discovered by experiment in the real place or in simulations.claim0.810
  Defines the experimental, empirical nature of deciding next steps.
• Our present forms of planning, design, construction, and production are deeply flawed because they do not include step-by-step adaptation and cannot in principle do so as they are.claim0.806
  Sweeping indictment of current production systems.
• Everything should be made as simple as possible, but not simpler.quote0.805
  Einstein's assertion invoked to explain why BMR preserves accuracy while reducing complexity
