Summary:
Inner Space is part of an ongoing research project into the construction of the architectural imagination. It sets out to investigate the space between the inner and outer realities, a space that could be inhabited and explored in itself, looking for those moments in which the two realms interact most vividly. Besides, it also identifies two parallel and strictly intertwined movements intervening in the construction of architectural imagination: a collective one and an individual one, two spheres complementing each other. The aim is to identify imagination as an immersive territory that can be experienced, crossed and even inhabited, defined as a human ability which partly relies on a collective process.

Summary:
Throughout human history, the library, the archive and the museum have embodied knowledge, information and collective culture to such an extent that it is possible to compare systems of information organisation with spatial and architectural typologies. The publication, conceived in the occasion of the exhibition at Archizoom (EPFL), dives into the relationship between architectural and digital culture beyond the pure rhetoric of the digital turn and the digital as architectural style. The hypothesis is that the notions of "database", "network" and "interface"—common in the field of information technology—could be related to architectural issues of a formal, compositional or symbolic nature, of which spatial arrangements, plans or façades are the expression. In this sense, the publication presents a selection of case studies highlighting the possible links between digital and non-digital cultural projects and their architectural counterparts.
