Christopher Alexander referred to it as a “playful and simple way of following the fundamental process, which says that at each step, strong centers are to be created, step by step, in space”.
In the second doodle the possible unity of the smaller and larger centers started to work together a bit more strongly by making line drawings in seven steps, ending with a drawing of the whole.
