Quality.

Vanbrugh, Temple of the Four Winds, Castle Howard, York, 1724


To seek the timeless way we must first know the quality without a name.

There is a central quality which is the root criterion of life and spirit ...


... in a man, a town, a building, or a wilderness.


This quality is objective and precise, but it cannot be named.

Christopher Alexander
