| Abstract: | For the past fifteen-odd years, I’ve investigated the mutual influences of thinking and making, and their impact on design
and learning. This article reflects on the traditional role of architectural ornament in equipping a mind with metaphors for
wisdom and methods for learning. It then considers the reappearance of an ancient memory technique as an organizational metaphor
in the design of a new, forward-looking university building, as foreshadowing to the companion article “Chainbuilding.”
