A system of hulls of public space will inevitably be created by the unfolding of a living process, if it is truly living and truly allowed to unfold.claim0.770
The inevitability of hulls as the outcome of living process.
Cars do not dominate, they are the low man on the totem pole, and are squeezed in where they can be fitted, but are not allowed to destroy the neighborhood or its communal, living structure.quote0.749

Claim that each example contributes to the spatial hulls described in chapter 3.
The effect of the hulls, when they emerge from living process, is rather like CIRCULATION REALMS: a system of partly closed precincts opening off one another, arranged so that everything important opens off one of them.hypothesis0.748
