The Architectural Mythologems is an independent architectural practice operating at the intersection of architecture, theory, and symbolic form.
Architecture, in this practice, is understood as a narrative and cognitive structure.
Rather than treating buildings as isolated objects, The Architectural Mythologems explores symbolic systems, spatial logics, and formal languages that allow architecture to communicate beyond function and aesthetics. Form is not considered a container of meaning, but an active generator of it.
The Architectural Mythologems began as an online laboratory focused on symbolic structures, narrative form, and the psychological dimensions of architecture.
What originated as a conceptual archive gradually evolved alongside professional architectural practice. Over time, this exploratory field matured into a living body of work, where ideas are tested, structured, and eventually find material expression across diverse contexts and geographies.
The work of The Architectural Mythologems is grounded in research-driven design.
Concepts from philosophy, psychology, and linguistics are translated into formal principles, spatial hierarchies, and constructive systems. Design begins with structure — order, repetition, variation, and relation — allowing architectural form to emerge from internal logic rather than stylistic intent.
Architecture is treated as a readable system.
Spatial sequences, proportions, materials, and structural elements function as carriers of meaning. Meaning is embedded within form itself, allowing space to operate as a synthesis of thought, structure, and experience.
The Architectural Mythologems is an authored practice founded by Luka Stojanović.
The platform reflects both a philosophical pursuit and a built reality: the continuous transformation of architectural thought into form, experience, and meaning. The studio operates as a space where theory and practice remain inseparable — where ideas are developed, refined, and translated into spatial systems.
The studio operates across multiple formats and scales, including:
In addition to commissioned and research-based work, The Architectural Mythologems develops digital architectural products.
These include authored architectural systems, design studies, and modular frameworks intended for independent use, adaptation, and further development by architects, designers, and private individuals. Digital products function as an extension of the studio’s research — making architectural logic, method, and structure accessible beyond traditional project formats.
The Architectural Mythologems does not pursue trends or stylistic novelty.
Its focus lies in clarity, internal consistency, and the development of architectural systems that remain intelligible across contexts while preserving their internal logic.
