Abstract

Early in the sixties, a Group of London architects, self-called Archigram, burst onto the scene in the architectural debate on contemporary consumeristic US. To spread their revolutionary ideas, they relied on a magazine by the same name. Archigram, their house organ soon became an experiment in multimedia, where architecture was discussed and designed between literature and pop art, and collage soon became its most important expressive technique.
