| | Organize Elements Along An Axis | |
|
Problem / Situation
A common way of introducing order to a set of elements is along an axis, often referred to simply as Alignment.
Solution
A set of elements, be they rooms in a building, structural members etc. can be effectively given order by organizing them along an axis. This axis can be thought of as a line of movement, and is most effective when terminated by a strong element at each end
