The present paper is concerned with metaphors used by architects in the building review and aims to show how architects conceptualize and verbalize their particular experiences in the world through metaphor. The research was informed by cognitive linguistic theory of metaphor expounded in Lakoff & Johnson (1980). A case in point in the analysis of architectural texts is the difference between what are referred to as image metaphors and conceptual metaphors in the cognitive linguistics approach. The former are metaphors that map mental images onto other mental images by virtue of their external resemblance. These are contrasted with those metaphors that map more abstract knowledge across two domains and are referred to as conceptual metaphors.
The analysis is done on the corpus of 42 texts drawn from 4 German architectural magazines. The dataset comprised 373 instances, which were further sorted according to the domains providing the sources for the metaphors. Architectural metaphors within the corpus draw upon divers experiential domains, among these are organic, textile, language, music and machine. These yield conceptual and image metaphors, which appear evenly distributed in the corpus. Conceptual metaphors represent 44% in the corpus and image metaphors 56%. Concerning conceptual metaphors, it was observed that most expressions belong to the structural metaphors ARCHITECTURAL PRACTICE IS MAKING CLOTH/LINGUISTIC PRACTICE/MUSIC. In general textile, music and language metaphors highlight the structured quality of buildings. The second large set of expressions draws upon image metaphors. The image sources mapped onto architectural targets are of different sorts and can be grouped into organic sources and inorganic sources. Among the former the most recurrent come from the biological domain, and concern animal body parts, followed by plant terms. Inorganic sources comprise geometrical shapes etc.
In short, architects make active use of both conceptual and image metaphors. The discussion also addresses the difficult issue of metaphor classification, and proposes a combination of cognitive and discourse procedures in order to approach the differences between metaphor types.
