The aim of this study is to clarify the typological structure and existence of regularity in contemporary architecture that is made of a square plan. The results can be summarized in the following statements: Explication of linkage structure between the compositional elements. Discovery of latent structures that define types. Symmetry and Asymmetry of the compositional elements Unity and plurality of the compositional elements. Explication of the character of the morphological structure in consideration of size.
