How do places ‘happen’ to become what they are? What characterises their potentially unreducible singularity in light of general planning laws?</p> <p>I suggest educating along a didactic triangle of rules, novelty and singularity in a spatialisable tabular fashion. In addition to using the methods presented here in teaching, these approaches can also be used to create more inclusion in urban development processes as a whole. With a 3D visualisation matrix of analogue, hybrid and digital methods, I proceed to four exemplary multi-methodological teaching modes to tackle the ever-bygone <em>status quo</em>, to introduce research methodology and, thereby, the defeasibility of both the premises and the conclusions in all-too traditional urban design.</p> <p>I focus on abductive reasoning between the unique locality and the general space of possibility as trial acting and “plan-b thinking” to dialectically shuttle within didactic triangle and visualisation matrix. The curriculum allows for principal and exemplary multi-methodological cross-linkage. Open projects serve as stepping stones into the broad variety of non-algorithmic human occupations in 21<sup>st</sup> century urban planning.
