“towns and buildings will not be able to become alive, unless they are made by all the people in society, and unless these people share a common pattern language, within which to make these buildings, and unless this common pattern language is alive itself.”
Christopher W. Alexander, A Pattern Language: Towns, Buildings, Construction

“...towns and buildings will not be able to become alive, unless they are made by all the people in society...”

“fundamental view of the world. It says that when you build a thing you cannot merely build that thing in isolation, but must also repair the world around it, and within it, so that the larger world at that one place becomes more coherent, and more whole; and the thing which you make takes its place in the web of nature, as you make it.”
Christopher W. Alexander, A Pattern Language: Towns, Buildings, Construction
