The relationship between architecture and literature has beenforgotten over time and therefore the space shared between thesetwo fields of knowledge is the object of study of this investigation.This space is achieved through a literary process thatpresupposes an architectural thought - which reflects on the spaceand the relationship of people with that space - in the literature. Theintention is to discuss some issues of architectural kind expressedthroughout the storyline, but does not seek to find a close anddefinitive answer to exhaust the possibilities of thinking, looking,however, to validate this possibility as a research method.In the first chapter of this research, arguments that validatethe literature as a tool of analysis are presented, always usingmethodological and analytical support as proof, the doctoral thesisof the spanish architect José Joaquín Parra Bañon " ArchitecturalThought in the Work of José Saramago". The arguments presentedconfirm the first premise of this work: in literature existexpressions of an architectural thought.In the second chapter, this new instrument is applied in aobject of analysis - the book "The Spanish Maker Machine" ofValter Hugo Mãe, the winner at 2007 of the literary prize of JoséSaramago. The author weighs factors such as loneliness andsubmission, key elements in creating atmospheres and creatingrelationships with the architecture. Thus validates the secondpremise of this work: in the work of Valter Hugo Mãe there isarchitecture in the conception of spaces.
