The first critical and historical book on an ultramodern architectural movement of the 1960s that advocated "living teams" rather than buildings.
In the 1960s, architects from the British Archigram group and Archigram magazine departed from conventional architecture to propose moving cities and houses that could be worn like suits. In drawings inspired by Pop Art and psychedelia, architecture floated, tethered by cables, gantries, tubes, and trucks.
In Archigram: Architecture without Architecture, Simon Sadler argues that Archigram's sense of playfulness takes its place alongside other cultural agitators of the 1960s, originating attitudes and techniques that became standard for architects rethinking social space and building technology. The Archigram style was assembled from the Apollo missions, constructivism, biology, fabrication, electronics, and popular culture, inspiring an architectural movement—High Tech—and influencing the postmodern and deconstructivist trends of the late 20th century.
