Meaning of "Set" (revised)

Set

Set is like an arrangement based on some particular rules or specific orders. It can be a combination of objects which are similar or different.

For a group of different objects, a new object could be composed and then generate a new object with visual impact. Set is like a “growth” direction to develop different objects’ distinguishing features.

For a group of similar objects, the characteristic of each object could be changed, such as the shape and texture, to give an illusion. Thereby, set is like a process of combination to distort or give a “reborn” to the original objects. For instance, a sea of square can be formed as a curve shape through special arrangement.

In architecture, each unit or room is a small and individual set that define the interior space. Through different arrangements of rooms, a new set can be created. In other words, set is like a rule to define space.
