Hierarchy controls how the smaller aspects of a design create an overall unity. The organization of the individual attributes in turn makes a more successful structure. 

Minimalism focuses on trying to see a structure’s architectural composition. Creating a stronger connection between the viewer and the piece. 

Postmodernism is not having precise control over your design, due to materials having their own language. You can control conditions around the space, but not space itself. The space around the figure controls more of the figure ,than the structure itself.

 Unexpected and irregular movements themselves are regular and recurring. If every individual piece has to follow the same rule, cohesion occurs.

Axiality, symmetry, and hierarchy in architecture today relates to hierarchy within western society. “Who has access to it and how it is distributed.” This also relates to the classical mindset, with the idea of perfect unity through geometry.
