Thereason for this is that the design is built up on the individualrelationship of each part to the central unity, and thus toeach other part, and whilst each part may be repeated abouta common center yet it is also related to each other in dif-ferent directions. Therefore the individual character or localcolor of each part is all-important. The arrangement of the Solar System is a good illus-tration in nature of this type of unity. Centralization emphasizes the idea of individual character,and variety in unity. It involves movement and balanceabout a central point, the movement like the parts, completewithin the design. [38].
