Digital documentation in architecture usually focuses entirely on form – but architectural professor Ines Weizman sees ways of using it more imaginatively. As Director of the Centre for Documentary Architecture at the Bauhaus‐Universität Weimar, she recently led a research project investigating the domestic work of Adolf Loos in the 1910s‐20s and how it has evolved since. Here she presents its background and results, which reveal not only the material evidence but the stories behind it.
