‘it is one thing to say that architecture has certain things in common with
language, for example that it can mediate things apart from what is
contained within its own materiality, but it is quite another thing to say that
architecture fully conforms to the various syntactical or grammatical rules
that are found in spoken languages’ (Forty, 2000)
