The expectations for shaping the urban landscape toward the ethical and aesthetic values of democracy are seen as the main challenge of an intelligent environment, made possible via information and communication technologies. Consequently, architecture’s tendency to embrace digital media strives to create innovative and sustainable infrastructure. This approach aims for an argumentative theoretical analysis of aesthetics and communication sciences. The focus is on the context that continuously evolves living traditions persuaded by innovation that modifies and facilitates the evolution of society. The approach is also supposed to be a constantly evolving practice that engenders interaction between past, present, and future, configuring a unique urban landscape. The goal is about the metropolis as a collective achievement, seeking innovation through technologies while preserving tradition. Therefore, the convergence between architecture, technology, and new media requires the consideration of two viewpoints in this analysis. The first is the adopted architectural spatial models. The second is the transformative structure through new media, creating realities, intelligent environments, and interactive communities. Under these two directions, the artificial environment and imagined configuration through digital media are discussed, considering that technology overcame natural boundaries: the leitmotif of human cultural development.
