#third typology

anthony vidler’s “the third typology” was an intriguing read as it classified the generations of architecture into three types. rather than classifying various movements, eras, or styles, vidler summarizes architecture into something along the lines of generations. a compelling categorization of phases that bundles work from the turn of the 19th century to the avant-garde and to then to the modernism period, finishing with the more current contemporary generation. the essay inspired one to think about the next generations of architecture and the potential impact of digital architecture for those upcoming generations.
