Cities are complex and ever contradicting symbolic worlds and, therefore, serve as prototypical exam-ples of multimodal space(s). Many recent publica-tions on written signs and semiotic theories of (ur-ban) space in particular have discussed this multi-faceted issue (e.g. Landry/Bourhis 1997, Scollon/Scollon 2003, Backhaus 2007, Jawor-ski/Thurlow 2010, Warnke 2013). Especially the field of Urban Linguistics (Busse und Warnke 2014) has contributed to this debate by including not only all linguistic aspects of the city in an urban model but also its multimodal features.
