Organic Design Versus Chaotic Design

This is not a montage. What you see is graffity on the wall of a tunnel under a freeway. On the right there is grass growing up the slope.

What’s the difference between these concepts of design? Could it bew labeled “Chaotic” versus “Organic”?

Organic
By Detlef.

What intrigues me is that within both concepts human “intention” takes a step back: The wall of the tunnel was designed - as was the slope. But the growth on it was not part of that intended design.

I like to see what happens when “volition” and “intention” are not at work.
