Everyone has the right to individuality and originality, but these individual differences do not form any common structure of relations.

Individuation in architecture, and not only, takes place at different levels of the socio-cultural hierarchy. References Bagina, E. Rappaport, A., & Khmelnitsky, D. (2016).
