nonlayered

Lacking distinct levels

Nonlayered describes something that lacks layers or a layered structure.

The term appears in technical contexts—geology, materials science, software architecture—to distinguish simple, uniform structures from stratified or composite ones: a nonlayered rock formation, nonlayered neural networks.

In everyday use, it might describe hair without layered cuts or clothing without tiered construction.
