The most important thing is that they are
felt. I don't mean "emotional" in the general sense. I mean a profound response to relationships such as that experienced by visual artists, architects and musicians. Many of the best architects conceive a building first then work out later how it can be made. I know it's not the only way. There are traditions like the historical Japanese tradition where they demand that all the means of construction should be visible in the completed building.
In the end it's taste and temperament. But nobody should refrain from something in which they believe because there is not yet a name or explanation for it. Invent a name later if necessary.
