The kit of parts has been an approach developed from the 1960s. The following are some of the rules which govern the kit of parts:
- it is purely spatial, only use horizontal, vertical places and columns as space defining elements
- it is about space-making, not form-making; think about composition
- it is abstract; little attention is given on the real material and site context
- there are different possibilities of defining space
- it is indeed modenists in approach, think de stijl, think suprematism (meaning using 2D elements to give 3D effects).
