DESIGN ENTAILS ANALYSIS
Axial Conditions AXIS. An imaginary line about which a form,
area, or plane is organized.
Circulation CIRCULATION. Represents design elements of
both movement and rest, setting the pace, mood,
atmosphere, and experience of a landscape.
Geometry
Grid GRID. A system of coordinates used in locating the
principal elements of a plan while creating an
understandable pattern.
Hierarchy HIERARCHY. Refers to the physical form of rank
ordering of spaces or features, communicating
value and importance while adding organization.
DESIGN ENTAILS ANALYSIS
Structuring Elements STRUCTURING ELEMENTS are physical forms
that define space, create units, articulate circulation,
suggest movement, or develop composition
Public vs. Private Spaces
The Borrowed View BORROWED VIEW describes scenery or
In Chinese gardens it is described as jie jing, elements beyond the actual design that become an

in Italian design as integrazione scenica. important or integral part of the composition.
Figure and Ground A FIGURE AND GROUND diagram enables the
designer to reveal the form of the ground plane by
darkening the figures or 3-D elements of the design.
Points of Transition POINTS OF TRANSITION are loci of change,
thresholds of movement from inside to outside,
darkness to light, enclosed space to open space,
grade to grade, movement to rest, or places to
change direction.
