FUNCTIONAL FORMISM:The Dictate and Reveal of Primary Function and Formative Expression. A definitive Architectural and Applied Design Engineering categoric designation - irrespective of the period and stylate reference other than taking subjective account in respect of prevailing material(s) technology. In Exposition: That embracing interpretative philosophy and applied expression: Subject Function and Environmental Sphere; Primary and Elemental Planning and Evolved Design; Functional Aesthetics: Primary, Secondary and Integrant Elements. Subjective Examples and Representative Works:in principle and ideative of - in broad respect,variously: The Chair: anthropofunction-form reveal. A Stairway: anthropofunction-formed reveal.

Addendum Reference: Form follows function: Under the embracing ethos of pure and applied design...form unquestionably(?) does follow function. However(?): directive functionality is subjective under "individual interpretative" solutionary design and aesthetic expression. Design brief for a box?
