Having trouble understanding the latest trends in architecture today? Don't worry, there are few who can find their way around buildings with glossy finishes or envelopes that look like ruins. And it is hard to see why the buildings signed by the great architects no longer reflect the traditional rules of good composition or the Vitruvian triad: solidity, utility and beauty. What is more, their buildings are covered in gold leaf, incorporate gigantic images, are coated with vegetation or do not seem to rest on the ground.

Yet by examining this abundance of signs, of often superficial, seemingly meaningless, sometimes chaotic, sometimes laconic textures, we can find the key to understanding how our way of life is changing and try to get a sense of where we are and where we are going.
