ARQUITECTURA Y CREATIVIDAD: ARQUITECTURA Y COMPLEJIDAD
https://arquitecturaycreatividad.blogspot.com/2010/08/arquitectura-y-complejidad.html
Blog dedicado a temas de creatividad en arquitectura y al desarrollo de la creatividad del arquitecto. Ahora bien, estos tres elementos son definidos por otros elementos más simples; de tal modo que la complejidad de un concepto se elimina en el momento en que se tiene el fundamento correcto.
