Pattern 001 Research log

Surface clustering
of design methods

Status

This pattern is currently in preparation.

A pattern requires at least two independent observations or cases pointing to the same structure. The supporting materials are being developed.

Expected sources: Observation 001 (asymmetry of the landscape) + forthcoming case analysis.

What a pattern is

In StratoAtlas research, materials have three epistemic levels:

Observation "We saw this" — a single finding, not yet generalised
Case "Here is how it looked" — contextual evidence from a specific situation
Pattern "This repeats" — a falsifiable claim supported by multiple sources

A pattern is not a conclusion. It is a generalisable claim that can be challenged with a counter-case.
