This seminal work presents a revolutionary theory on how to design structures that perfectly adapt to human needs. It argues that successful design must happen piecemeal rather than all at once, contrasting the flawlessly adapted forms of traditional cultures with the arbitrary, flawed outputs of modern, self-conscious designers who rely on rigid preconceptions. To remedy this, the text introduces a rigorous methodology that breaks a complex problem down into its inherent subsystems, allowing creators to bypass existing cliches and build organic, correct forms directly from the structure of the challenge itself.
