The intent of this research, based on the study of Icapuí s (Ceará) porched loam houses, and through the understanding of architecture as a language, is to comprehend the resources utilized by home builders and residents to communicate and create meaning, with the purpose of investigating the existing relationship between the construction of the home space and its representations (spatialitys) and the urban and communicative sociability originated from the interactive exchange of values, which start within the private area and expands into the public space. Through the understanding of architecture as a language, this research analyzes Icapuí s porched loam houses to comprehend the resources utilized by home builders and residents to create and communicate meaning. The research investigates the existing relationship between the construction of the home space and its representations (spatialitys) and the urban and communicative sociability originated from the interactive exchange of values that start within the private area and expand into the public space. The object of this paper is, therefore, Icapuí s porched loam houses and the relationship that this architecture establishes with the habitants and the city, especififically how the home becomes the means of communicating everyday habits, values and specifific and not transferable behaviors. It will be necessary, along this analysis, to document a specifific architectonic typology and indentify the values, implicit or explicit, that justify this typology s endurance or that stimulate its disappearance. Apart from identifying these values, it is necessary to investigate the mediation processes that prompted the value transmission and also indentify how the changes on the way of living influence the characterization of the communicability of the home values. It was found, so far, that home building and home inhabiting constitute a mediation to a communicative sociability, and that the typological changes in the architecture of the Icapuí s porched loam houses (multiples and mutant spatialitys) characterize sociability and meaning changes in the communication processes. The methodology consisted in the characterization of the object (through a fifield research, realized within 2006 and 2008) and the confrontation and analysis of the obtained data (based on C.S. Peirce Semiotic), from a plural and theoretical perspective that provides a dialogue between communication, space and culture. Concepts such as space, spatialitys and urban sociability (l. Ferrara), means and mediation (M.Mcluhan, J.M-Barbero), inhabit and live in (M.Heidegger, N.Leach), and communicate, transmit and methodology (R.Debray), are fundamental to the development of the research
