imaginatively built
Etymology
'creatively-constructed' originates from the combination of 'creative' and 'construct,' where 'creative' comes from Latin 'creare' meaning 'to create,' and 'construct' from Latin 'construere' meaning 'to build together.'
'Creative' evolved from the Latin 'creare' through Old French 'creatif,' while 'construct' evolved from Latin 'construere' through Old French 'construire.'
Initially, 'creative' meant 'to create,' and 'construct' meant 'to build together.' The combination now implies building in an imaginative way.
