Kenneth Frampton (1930–present) is one of world's most influential architectural historians and critics. His archive—a showcase of lesser-known aspects of his work, such as political articles and poetry—contains letters, unpublished texts, books, drafts, lessons, and lecture notes. To date, this treasure has neither been consulted nor organized. The project's aim, in collaboration with Frampton, is to lay the foundation for the most exhaustive archival organization possible. This goal includes the preservation of damaged documents (through physical protection and digitization). The transcription and digitalization of certain texts and the diffusion of certain content will introduce new scholars to this information, laying the groundwork for future studies and innovative opportunities.
