cosine ≥ 0.65 · no typed edgeEntities in the same semantic neighborhood but without a typed relation to this one — candidates for new edges or unrecognized duplicates.
- Sequence for generating coherent, shaped outdoor space around a house, giving it living structure.
- APL pattern referenced as an example of deep interlock between indoor and outdoor space, requiring structural relation between inside centers, wall centers, and outside centers
- APL pattern requiring a focus approximately in the middle of a square, demonstrating roughness by allowing the position to meet other important criteria rather than being perfectly centered
- APL pattern requiring buildings to touch each other, referenced as an example of not-separateness in construction
- Fundamental definition of positive space as room-like enclosure.
- APL pattern describing how rooms should be arranged in a graded sequence from public to private, creating field-like quality through the gradient as a whole
- APL pattern on arcades as boundary layers between inside and outside, referenced as an example of boundaries and deep interlock and ambiguity
- APL pattern describing variation in column size and beam size according to spans, referenced as an example of gradients in structural engineering
