Guasare Step 5: Placing Garden as Positive Center Before Lot Lines
succeeds
Rule establishing the garden for each house as a positive center after house volume, defining the lot boundary from the garden's necessities before lot lines are drawn.
Guasare Step 10: Drawing Lot Lines After Centers Are Established
succeeds
Only after courtyards and gardens are established as coherent centers are lot lines drawn — the legally necessary final step.

Guasare Step 4: Establishing House Volumes to Form Streetmethod0.847
Rule establishing a volume for each house at the time the street is laid out, so the street is formed as a center by forthcoming house volumes.
Guasare Step 1: Identifying the Boundary and Main Centermethod0.799
First step of the Guasare neighborhood process: establishing the neighborhood boundary and locating its main center in the best spot on the landform.
The 10-step Guasare process generates a dense field of living centers in which every bit of space — street, lot, garden, courtyard, house — forms a coherent center, a result achievable only by this dynamic sequential processfinding0.793
Demonstration via simulation that the defined process produces complex, organic, center-rich morphology.
Guasare Step 3: Street Swelling to Form Local Centermethod0.777
At suitable places the street opens slightly to form a swelling or local center.
Guasare Step 2: Placing Smaller Streets to Feed the Main Centermethod0.759
Rule allowing any small street to be added feeding into the main center and the center of gravity of empty areas.
The Guasare simulation showed that the defined process generates coherent, complex, and variable morphology for houses, streets, lots and gardens even without influence from external factors such as land and topographyfinding0.731
Key validation that the process itself — not just site conditions — generates living structure.
