Not sure how to translate 'articulaciones' here. 'Links' or 'connections' maybe?
El esfuerzo de la generación del Team X para crear sistemas formales complejos y de gran escala llevó esencialmente a dos tipos de lógicas, descubiertas sucesivamente: los clusters y los mat buildings, que nacen de la evolución formal a partir de ***articulaciones*** e intersecciones de la arquitectura moderna. Los clusters permiten estructuraciones y **articulaciones*** que pueden extenderse y transformarse buscando versatilidad, movilidad y diversidad, con la intención de generar estructuras abiertas y orgánicas.

Alan Douglas (X)
: More commonly used for joints that move or are 'hinged' and in medicine than in architecture. In the latter case they can refer, in a figurative sense, to hinge points between two elements or buildings. Perhaps a partial false friend?

Googling "architecture" and "articulation" you'll find many examples such as "Articulation is a term we use in architecture to describe how the individual parts of a design are jointed in relation to whole." http://blog.brooksandfalotico.com/design/...

With two votes against my suggestion, I suggest querying of this one to make sure the author wasn't talking about how the space/structure are articulated. I appreciate the input!
