Frances to William... (1) If engineered constructs like towers and pylons and piers and bridges and monuments are to be admitted as architecture, which tentatively does seem to be tenable, considering what does pass as architecture by some experts, then other related constructs like mineral mines and traffic tunnels and habitable caves might also qualify. The semiotic criteria here to support such a relation would perhaps be the formal iconic similarity and resemblance of objects, so that if a construct seems architectural or seems to be like architecture, then it must be architecture. Frances, I've been busy but have been following the thread. I will try to participate more this weekend.
