Project 2: Addition to an Existing
Order
An
addition to an existing order, "requires first
that the ordering system of the prior or prototypical model be perceived and understood
so that, through a series of finite changes and permutations, the original
design concept can be clarified, strengthened, and built upon, rather than
destroyed."
