Archigram collaboration
The visionary, anti-heroic and pro-consumer images of 1960's avant-garde architecture
group Archigram return to graniph for a major collaboration!
＜Archigram＞
Archigram, an avant-garde architectural group formed in the 1960s - based in London
and teaching at the Architectural Association - looked to a future which could be antiheroic and pro-consumer. Drawing inspiration from new technologies in order to suggest an alternative reality that they visualised through a series of hypothetical projects. Committed to a 'high tech', light weight, transient, infra-structural approach that was focused towards the individual and survival. The group explored the technologies of
responsive environments, of mobility and of capsules and expressed their concepts with
popular imagery. Their works offered a seductive vision of a possible glamorous and
optimistic future.
