Forgotten Architecture – An Archive of Overshadowed Projects

Forgotten Architecture was founded as a Facebook group on 28 May 2019, to share forgotten or obscured projects in Europe and the rest of the world in a virtual space. The idea behind Forgotten Architecture is simple: to recover projects by little-known architects and works left in the shadow of the masters (such as the house designed for Arnaldo Pomodoro by Ettore Sottsass and the avant-garde “Binishells” by Dante Bini), to delve into the work of “minor” figures, and to bring together alternative views of the history of architecture to complement university courses.

Forgotten Architecture became a book, while retaining its characteristics as a collective, dynamic and horizontal experience, born on a social network.
