Description: "These notes are about the process of design: the process of inventing things which display new physical order, organization, form, in response to function." This book, opening with these words, presents an entirely new theory on the process of design.

Review Quotes: Christopher Alexander has outlined an ambitious proposal that could revolutionize the approach to architectural design... His method cannot help but become 'a very powerful tool indeed' for those who would deal with projects of the complex present and the growing complexity of the future.-- "Progressive Architecture"
