Design/methodology/approach - Further considerations focus on the advanced technological possibilities which re-invest the relations between principles of cybernetics and architecture. Findings - The current between art and architecture is more than ever manifested in fields related to the computer sciences and its conceptual background: cybernetic sciences. Originality/value - The paper re-thinks the aesthetic value of architecture and architectural experience in this time of digital productivity.
