The texts in this book define an architecture that is inscribed in information society, that is influenced by new technologies and new economies, and that concerns itself with the environment and sustainability. The dictionary has been organized according to three distinct systems. The main dictionary is laid out in alphabetical order, within this larger dictionary are two smaller ones: the ideological dictionary which offers analogical groups of words related to specific ideas; the dictionary of aphorisms synthesizes some of the key definitions from the main dictionary in the form of mottos.
