Using a hospitality system (Property Management) as an example, the author walks through how C4 System and Container diagrams establish overall structure and boundaries, Context Maps reveal team/module relationships and leverage (upstream/downstream, supplier/consumer), and message flow diagrams simulate business processes. The techniques complement each other: C4 gives structural clarity, Context Maps expose power dynamics and integration patterns, and EventStorming drives process discovery. The author encourages experimenting with combinations (including Example Mapping, Wardley Maps, Domain Storytelling) and notes this practice has a name: Model Storming. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
