One meaning of intentionality is opening to the world. Whereas relationships are usually described as links between two objects, opening is expectation for something yet undefined. Intentionality is said to grasp things in the movement of their appearance and movement is thus integrated in a hanging-on link. This paper as part of a doctoral thesis work aims to propose a mathematical structure and a model to capture intentionality as an opening. The model is based on the concept of whorl. Examples of such openings are given to revisit goal diagrams and artifact life cycles.
