In 1975, the visionary husband-and-wife design team of Charles and Ray Eames devised a two-part proposal to reimagine The Metropolitan Museum of Art. Their submission, presented to then-Director Thomas Hoving, included a physical maquette of the galleries and a short film that explored how the Museum might “host” guests and foster connections between the public and its collection. Among the various elements suggested in the film is an “Information Hall” that included a sophisticated timeline of art history and interactive computer terminals where visitors could devise custom tours. This film was restored by the Library of Congress in 2025.
