In this paper I present part of the cultural heritage in the archive “Architecture” at the Institute of Art studies through the opportunities provided by the software technologies for three-dimensional digital architectural reconstructions. According to established by me criteria, I developed a collection of ten architecturally recorded in 1950-s old buildings from the 19-th century. I start the three dimensional reconstructions with a house in town of Nessebar, situated at the Black sea coast. The research focus is to discover not only on the technical and mathematical parameters of this building, but also philosophical and poetic aspects in the architecture. In some essential points of my analysis, I refer to the thesis of the American architect and researcher Peter Eisenman: firstly to his definition for canonical building and secondly to his methodology of repetition in the close reading of architecture.
The thesis I defend through the reconstruction is that this house is an office building made of wood and stone. Like Eisenman’s methodology, I disassemble the original composition of the project into a series of components for rethinking. I look at the elements independently: yard, stairs, cavity, walls, chimney, windows. I find in the house the contrasting ideas of slowness and of acceleration.
