# Where the two fight
# - Swiss and Memphis share no intent, so the contrast has to become the subject rather than something to smooth over.

# Cautions carried from each entry
# - Swiss: Too much tidiness turns anonymous. Keep one strong jump in scale.
# - Memphis: Don't stop at background pattern. Map the figures to navigation and units of meaning.
