Our research project aims to combine methods of computation in architecture with the historiography of the built environment aimed at developing a new architectural archive, the Future_ARChive. In collaboration with the Tel Aviv municipality’s Preservation Department, the research is concerned with identifying and classifying buildings of the postmodern period in the city. Even though this type of objective would typically fall within the field of architectural history, we have reimagined it as a problem at the intersection of architectural computing and architectural history. We did so by examining the status of the archive at a time of increasingly democratized image-production related to the built environment thanks to the proliferation of digital cameras and the Internet.
