Adaptive Design Reuse

Captions available

The idea

Adaptive design reuse builds solutions top-down by assembling existing design building blocks that need minimal customization — an approach termed computing in the large.

In practice

A storefront assembles from an existing catalog, cart, and checkout rather than instructions written from scratch.

Where people slip

Bottom-up thinking and top-down reuse are partners, not rivals.
