New flatness

"The messages of our electronic age are becoming increasingly metaphorical and less assertive. This metaphorization process affects every aspect of society today, as can be seen in design and, although more resistant to change, in the sphere of architecture. A building does not acquire value just because it works, is solid, spatially stimulating and liveable, but because it refers to something else. The process of metaphorization concerns most of today's architecture. Its basic objective is a new interiorization of the landscape and the relations between man and nature, an objective which has been accomplished, or nearly. In order to make further progress and gain ground, we must turn to electronics and, above all, its center: interconnections."--Jacket.
