My Berkeley

After reading Christopher Alexander’s The Nature of Order, I went walking around Berkeley to document examples of the concepts and ideas expressed in the reading. Alexander’s definition of order seemed rightfully ambiguous, constituting the organization of ideas, thoughts, values, conceptions, and relations of those involved in creating and constructing. With this in mind, I walked around different parts of Berkeley and observed many examples of the different types of order Christopher Alexander describes.
