The Oregon Experiment

Third in a series of books by the Center for Environmental Structure, The Oregon Experiment contains the master plan for the University of Oregon, telling at the same time how any community the size of a university or small town might go about designing its own future environment-with all members of the community participating personally. It is a concrete example at the Center for Environmental Structure's theories in practice, showing in simple detail, with numerous illustrations, how to implement six guiding principles: organic order, participation, piecemeal growth, patterns, diagnosis, and coordination.
