Pattern Language
A "Pattern Language" is a method for designing and organizing spaces, systems, or processes by identifying and describing recurring solutions to common problems. Developed by architect Christopher Alexander in the 1970s, it consists of a collection of patterns that can be combined to create functional and harmonious environments. Each pattern addresses a specific issue and provides guidelines for implementation.
The concept emphasizes the importance of human experience in design, encouraging collaboration among users and designers. By using a shared vocabulary of patterns, communities can create spaces that foster connection, comfort, and usability, ultimately enhancing the quality of life for individuals and groups.
