noun
The intricate process of assembling or arranging elements into a complex, interlocking pattern, where each piece contributes to a cohesive whole. It suggests a methodical, almost geometric integration, akin to the creation of a mosaic or a tessellation, where individual units fit together seamlessly to form a larger structure.
Etymology:
A fusion of “tessera” (Latin for a small tile or piece used in mosaics, from Greek “tessares,” meaning four) and “integration,” reflecting the act of bringing parts together into a unified, patterned arrangement.
Example Sentence:
The city’s urban design was a work of tessagration, with parks, buildings, and pathways interwoven into a harmonious and efficient network.
