Architectural language has now reached its most dramatic impasse in terms of definition of new models for the city. So the concern should not be to continue inventing or producing complexity but rather to shift the discussion towards the definition of a grammar for the city, to rethink the relationship between economy and architecture. Any architecture that attempts for a grammar evidently has to refer to Classicism.
