The Linkage System

The outstanding feature is a distributed set of focal points, interlinked by paths to form an irregular, usually triangular, network.
1. Its only difficulty in regard to the general criteria that is immediately apparent is the concentrations of flows on the links that run from center to center.
The foci are each of distinctive chatacter, and are contrasted to their immediate hinterlands but rooted in them.
1. More important centers can occasionally be found thoughout the region, the geographical center of the region.
2. The succession of links leading from one major center to another, through a series of minor simoly as a few major link
3. Paths have symmetrical linear sequences and they have some pervasive character
4. The node connected to can be read anywhere along the path
Special districts and open space of small to medium size are associate with centers.
1. The fosi hace well-marked entrances
  1. Disposed in vertical layers with linkages in three dimensions and special local systems of movement.
Densities tend to fall off away from the nodes, and particularly away from the links, toward the interior of the triangular blocks, where there may be major open space.
1. Centers on the periphery may be satellite comunities, connected by their links into the whole regions, but surrounded by substantial open space.
The principal perceptual difficulty will be to create a sufficient number of recognizable ondes to cover the region.

      1. It easily extensible to small localities; it is very flexible.
