Abstract
A literary product could be assessed as an architectural education material because every artwork has potential to be interchangeably used for explaining/introducing what the order is and how structure could be build via elements. In a literary product, author creates a pattern with the words similarly, an architect does the same with the architectural elements. Both of them have the same concern; to build an imaginative world. The more to be searcher as an inventory traveler between the wor(l)ds is the more to discover the way to use the language. Could the architectural student follow “how to make” with wor(l)ds as the masters who know “how to tell” with the stones? Are there any traceable paths between how to make (to build) and how to tell (write- rereading)? Two different texts constituted with spatial narrative elements will be used to make a nexus to architecture; poetic novel of Alessandro Baricco, “Ocean Sea” and Borges’s short story, “Library of Babel”. This comparative analysis signifies how spatial elements are capable to structure philosophy of the wor(l)ds.

Abstract
Yazınsal ürün, bir mimari eğitim materyali olarak değerlendirilebilir, çünkü her sanat işi, düzenin ne olduğunu, birtakım öğelerle yapının nasıl inşa edilebileceğini açıklamak üzere dönüşümlü kullanılabilecek potansiyele sahiptir. Bir yazınsal üründe, yazar kelimelerle bir örüntü yaratır, tıpkı bir mimarın mimari elemanlarla yaptığı gibi. Her ikisi de benzer kaygıyı taşırlar, hayali bir dünya inşa etmek. Kaşif gezgin olarak kelime-dünyalar arasında daha fazla araştırdıkça, dili kullanma biçimi daha fazla keşfedilir. Taşlarla nasıl söyleneceğini bilen ustalar gibi bir mimarlık öğrencisi de kelimelerle nasıl yapıldığını takip edebilir mi? Nasıl yapılacağı (inşa edileceği) ile nasıl söyleneceği (yazılıp-okunacağı) arasında izlenebilir patikalar var mıdır? Mimarlıkla bir bağ oluşturmak için mekânsal anlatı unsurları ile oluşturulan iki farklı metin kullanılacaktır; Alessandro Baricco’nun şiirsel romanı, “Okyanus Deniz” ve Borges’in kısa hikayesi, Babil Kitaplığı. Bu karşılaştırmalı analiz, mekansal elemanların kelime-dünyaların felsefesinin inşa edilmesinde nasıl yetkin olduğunu gösterir.
