The method of making defines the structure. Repetition, accumulation, or procedure becomes the visible logic of the work.

In Maison Margiela’s work, this approach appears where deconstruction sustains system.

Constructed Surfaces

Surfaces are built through layering, joining, and controlled fabrication.

Systems of Clarity

Order and coherence arise through disciplined systems and constraints.

Gesture functions as structure through disciplined, repeatable action.

Structure holds the work through rules, joins, and controlled relationships between parts.
