‘In its traditional acceptation, which has persisted into the professional discourse of architecture, design is or prepares for, a realization of the integral idea. In its intrinsic coherence, completeness, intelligibility and transcendence, it stands above, before and independent of the dispersed, obscurely interconnected, factuality of nature – as an alternative to those spontaneously coordinated distributions that would eventually be called ecologies. Insofar as design provides a general model of order, schematizing the conformity of matter to an idea, it confronts ecology – or spontaneous, disintegrated coordination – as an alien and incompatible hypothesis.’ Nick Land, Design Ecologies 2.1
