Summary:

The Lewis Residence by Frank Gehry (1985--1995), Peter Eisenman's unrealized Biocentrum (1987), Chuck Hoberman's Expanding Sphere (1992) and Shoei Yoh's roof structures for Odawara (1991) and Galaxy Toyama (1992) Gymnasiums: four seminal projects that established bold new directions for architectural research by experimenting with novel digital tools. Curated by architect Greg Lynn, Archaeology of the Digital is conceived as an investigation into the foundations of digital architecture at the end of the 1980s and the beginning of the 1990s.
