Abstract

This paper explores the role of "digital architects" in the production of knowledge related to cultural heritage. It delves into the potential contribution of architects in developing a metaverse that represents past societies, creating a persistent and shared 3D virtual space within the evolving internet. The study aims to enhance our understanding of the relationship between physical and virtual spaces in the interpretation of cultural heritage and to investigate how interactive experiences impact individuals' perceptions and comprehension of space and heritage. Two case studies are provided to comprehensively demonstrate the challenges and benefits of digital tools in designing architectural heritage projects. By exploring these tools and fostering collaboration between digital architects and digital tools, the projects aim to raise public awareness regarding architectural heritage, facilitating a deeper understanding of the past and its relevance to the present.
