Spanish to English Social Sciences Architecture John Soane and James Stirling

This is the same academic article on John Soane and James Stirling and their take on the direction of architecture; i.e., why shouldn't we take into account the eventual decline and decay of any building in the design stage of it? Working from peninsular Spanish into American English.

This time I'm not sure if my lack of understanding is due to "user error" (i.e., I just don't get it) or "author error" (i.e., a poorly worded phrase). In any event, the best approximation I can come up with for it doesn't make sense to me even in English. Here's the whole context (which happens to include the word from my last question):

Los futuros imaginados por Soane y Stirling evidencian que cualquier creación arquitectónica procede y se ve avocada hacia la ruina, un pensamiento cercano a la hipótesis de Robert Smithson en la que utilizaba el concepto de ruins in reverse (15) para toda construcción. Sus premoniciones nos permiten vislumbrar un nuevo territorio desde el que investigar la capacidad que posee la arquitectura para asumir la futura ruina de las construcciones como **un estado más contenido bajo el soporte del tiempo.**

Here's what I've come up with:
His premonitions allow us to glimpse a new terrain from which to investigate architecture's ability to assume the future ruin of constructions as **a state more contained under the basis/foundation of time.** ("Support" just really didn't seem to fit in here.)

Does this actually make sense but I'm just not seeing it? Any other possible interpretations would be greatly appreciated.
