​
Non-Linear programming process. Space sizes range from what sized spaces were used in the past to current sized spaces. As structural attributes and materials have changed larger open spaces are being created.
The banjo shaped diagram to the right shows the steps needed to obtain a transformative design.

As the needs of communities change the spaces may change as well.
