Broader Interconnected structures; Structure-enfolded insight domain; Domain for developing perspectives; Common external context for inactivity; Limiting length of communication pathways; Sequence of viewpoint loci within a structure; Hospitable domain for perspective nourishment; Ensuring function of common domain interfaces; Common domain at the focal point of a structure; Orientation of domains to receive external insight; Functional integration of unstructured internal domains; Integration of non-linearity into integrative superstructure; Blended integration of formal structure and informal context; Hospitable interface between structures and external environment; Harmoniously structured entry point for external communication media; Relative isolation of structural interface with communication pathway; Functional enhancement of domains separating complementary structures.

Narrower Inter-level zone; Flexible interfaces; Grounded structures; Ambiguous boundaries; Attractive temporary positions; Embedding fixity within variability; Appropriate proportions of perspective contexts; Enfolded overview domains of minimum proportions; Communication pathways enfolded by non-linearity; Appropriate relationship of non-linearity to structures; Exposure of structural activities to communication pathway; Protecting non-linear contexts from communication pathways; Overview domains at interfaces of the structure with the external environment; Congruence between spaces defined by the framework and spaces defined by the processes within it.
