description Thinking in alternatives and oppositions is a classic way of organizing any meaningful thought – from Greek aporias to Peter Eisenman’s journal Oppositions. In this way, it is possible not only to keep the different in the unity of view, but also to keep hope for a synthesis (a third way) alive, a hope which is far from always illusory. The inexhaustible source as well as the basic mechanism for the production of alternatives and oppositions is interpretation, an enigmatic capacity located beyond semiology and the “transparency of the sign” envisioned by it. At different scales and on different materials, the article assesses the main development resources of architectural and design thinking of our time in their most significant, in the author’s opinion, alternatives and oppositions.
