Mental spaces are often connected by vital conceptual relations. When mental spaces serve as inputs to a blended mental space, the vital conceptual relations between them can be "compressed" to blended structure inside the blended mental space. In other words, "outer-space" relations become "inner-space" relations. This article discusses compression of the outer-space relation of representation under mental blending.
