The Semiotics of Built Environment provides an introduction to architectonic analysis, described in the author's preface to the 1979 edition as follows: "This book is concerned with the analysis and description of the built environment as a semiotic system—as a system of meaningful signs. It seeks to establish some of the principal ways in which what will be termed architectonic systems are similar to and different from other forms of human symbolic communication."

You can use this book to design a house for yourself with your family; you can use it to work with your neighbors to improve your town and neighborhood; you can use it to design an office, or a workshop, or a public building. And you can use it to guide you in the actual process of construction. After a ten-year silence, Christopher Alexander and his colleagues at the Center for Environmental Structure are now publishing a major statement in the form of three books which will, in their words, "lay the basis for an entirely new approach to architecture, building and planning, which will we hope replace existing ideas and practices entirely." The three books are The Timeless Way of Building, The Oregon Experiment, and this book, A Pattern Language. At the core of these books is the idea that people should design for themselves their own houses, streets, and communities. This idea may be radical (it implies a radical transformation of the architectural profession) but it comes simply from the observation that most of the wonderful places of the world were not made by architects but by the people. At the core of the books, too, is the point that in designing their environments people always rely on certain "languages," which, like the languages we speak, allow them to articulate and communicate an infinite variety of designs within a forma system which gives them coherence. This book provides a language of this kind. It will enable a person to make a design for almost any kind of building, or any part of the built environment. "Patterns," the units of this language, are answers to design problems (How high should a window sill be? How many stories should a building have? How much space in a neighborhood should be devoted to grass and trees?). More than 250 of the patterns in this pattern language are given: each consists of a problem statement, a discussion of the problem with an illustration, and a solution. As the authors say in their introduction, many of the patterns are archetypal, so deeply rooted in the nature of things that it seemly likely that they will be a part of human nature, and human action, as much in five hundred years as they are today.

Dans cet ouvrage, l'auteur distingue en premier ce qu'est l'architecture de la simple construction afin de montrer comment la théorie s'avère centrale dans la démarche architecturale. Il introduit ainsi la notion de "lieu", d'abord en tant que problème philosophique, puis en tant qu'aspect d'une "édification" et finalement en tant que phénomène architectural et territorial (la notion de paysage, par exemple). Développant cette réflexion qui repose sur plus de vingt années de recherches dans le domaine de la sémiotique des lieux, l'auteur met en place un dispositif cognitif mobilisant de nombreux diagrammes et figures répondant à ce qu'est l'architecture en général (qu'elle soit simple pavillon d'exposition de sculptures, avec Aldo van Eyck, ou recomposition urbaine de la ville, avec Louis Kahn). En conclusion, l'auteur aborde la question iconologique de cette problématique en reconsidérant la démarche d'Aloïs Riegl à propos de l'ornement comme moyen terme entre une science et un art.

Dans ce brillant exposé, le professeur Norberg-Schulz propose une façon radicalement nouvelle de regarder l'architecture occidentale. Prenant comme prémisse l'utilisation de l'architecture par l'homme en tant que moyen symbolique pour apporter ordre et signification dans les relations entre lui-même et son environnement, il passe en revue toutes les époques principales de l'art occidental, de l'Egypte Ancienne à ce jour, examinant soigneusement les principales réalisations de la construction dans le contexte des implantations et des villes dans lesquelles elles ont été intégrées. Il en ressort que style et organisation ne sont pas de purs accidents historiques. Il montre que l'architecture de différentes périodes culturelles est, dans chaque cas, l'expression physique des croyances religieuses et philosophiques régnantes. En tant que tels, les bâtiments qui ont occupé des situations-clés dans la communauté - temples, églises, palais et lieux de réunions publiques - fournissent, par leur structure, la sécurité spirituelle essentielle à l'homme pour se sentir intégré dans ce monde. La maison privée aussi a reflété la conception en cours de l'homme, de sa place dans le temps et l'espace. Contre cet arrière-plan, "La signification dans l'architecture occidentale" apporte des aperçus précieux dans la crise où se trouve l'architecture contemporaine où la disparition de telles croyances est manifeste dans le manque d'unité des stèles de construction. Bien plus stimulant que l'exposé ordinaire, et richement illustré de 556 photographies, cartes et plans, "La signification dans l'architecture occidentale" offre une splendide introduction aux principaux développements de la construction et de l'urbanisation de l'Occident. Elle apporte également une contribution exceptionnelle à la fois à l'histoire d el'art et à la pensée existentielle appliquée.
