Slaunch is a term often used, (or not), by the design community to describe the characteristic of horizontality or a "low
slung" visual attitude. A significant portion of midcentury mobern residential architecture, Japanese inspired design, and/or
Dr Suess style landscape elements fall under this description.
Example:
A tree
thinned of foliage or laid down horizontally by the effects of relentless wind or weather would be described as having "slaunch".

Frank Lloyd Wright's "
Prairie Style" architecture could be said to have characteristics of "slaunch".
Almost all of Dr Suess' landscpes are characterized by "slaunch",
