Structure: The inner working and the basic grid of what defines the shape of things. A object’s solidity comes from its structure. In everyday understanding of Design the term “form” is used in the sense of an object’s *outline*. In the designer’s vocabulary “form” is understood as an *expression of an underlying structure*. This is why gaps between form and structure bother us to the point where we see them as an indicator of Kitsch.
