6| CONCLUSION

Where rationalist have speculated that to free the city is to organise it, upon further investigation true liberation of the utopic city and the methods of investigation happen when every component of the city is considered, and preconceived notions on the strategy of analyse and translation of the built forms are removed.

The restricted city is a “no place” city, a conceptual thought, a sum of abstract simulated reality. The expression of the restricted architecture is a simulation of parts, devoid of meaning, or accurate historical context and unable to represent the truth. An imitation of other formal architectural vocabulary is the utopia’s mere way of expression. Ultimately, according to Eisenman, texts are as important as the building project. Yet, in the discourse of architecture, logic, and language: drawing is a form of writing, and a form of reading what is it written. There is not any difference. To Eisenman drawing is not making pretty things or making representations. It is not representing anything; it is the incarnation of the thing. It is the realization of the concept. This theory will open into Eisenman’s formalism and into the vast discussion of aesthetics in relation to the form (Eisenman, 1986).
