I think the author confused "Architecture" with "Big Desing Up Front" (BDUF), meaning the architecture is defined ahead of time in static (design...) documents that do not interact with the actual code.
This is somewhat excusable because that is pretty much how architecture works today. However, it shouldn't be, and Objective-Smalltalk[1] is an attempt to bring architecture into the fray of actual code, allowing it to participate in the feedback cycles of building real systems.
