From the book **[[The Timeless Way of Building – Christopher Alexander]] > It is perfectly possible to make a thing which has the quality which has no name, and still let it reflect your personality > Your person, and the likes dislikes which are part of you, are themselves *forces in the garden*, and your garden must reflect those forces just as it reflects the other forces which make leaves grow and birds sing. > — Page 37 Alexander describes The Quality as akin but never quite matching some sort of [[Systems Thinking|System]]. Taking on board how words like ‘balance, perfection, beauty’ etc.
