2. Do you mean what do we see in the picture?
If so I see order because chaos is its own order.

11. Orderly uncrooked lines, clean angles, space.
I don't see chaos at all, it looks so geometrically clean.

13. Order doesn't have to be parallel. Chaos is spontaneity, I see no spontaneity
no randomness either, in that figure, just different variations of straight lines.

Chaos is also unpredictable and unrepeatable. That figure isn't.

At least, that's how I see it.
