Brand new copy from BookCurl – the UK independent online bookseller. ------------------------------ Book details ------------------------------ Author: David Greene Title: Archigram The Book Format: Hardback Language: Unknown Publisher: Circa Press Publication year: 2025 ISBN-13: 9781911422495 ISBN-10: 1911422499 RRP: £75.00 ------------------------------ Description ------------------------------ Archigram comprised Warren Chalk (1927-88), Peter Cook (1936-), Dennis Crompton (1935-), David Greene (1937-), Ron Herron (1930-94), and Michael Webb (1937-). Together they envisioned the future of architecture in ways that enthralled a generation. In an era defined by the space race, they developed a high-tech', lightweight, infra-structural approach that stretched far beyond known technologies or contemporary realities. They devised autonomous dwellings and focused on survival technology; they experimented with megastructures and modular construction systems; they explored mobility through the environment, and the use of portable living capsules: all through the medium of an incredible series of drawings and models. Archigram's influence has been profound and enduring. They gave the high-tech movement its impetus; they inspired architects such as Renzo Piano and Norman Foster; and they laid the ground for the design of buildings such as the Pompidou Centre. Edited and designed by Archigram member Dennis Crompton, this book catalogues Archigram's activities over fourteen years, together with commentaries by the architects and critics writing then and now. ------------------------------ Why buy from BookCurl? ------------------------------ • 99.9% positive eBay feedback • All items brand new • Free tracked UK delivery • Independent UK bookseller with millions of titles • Secure packaging for safe delivery • Friendly support and recommendations BookCurl – Curl up with a good book.

  2. A brilliant experience with Book Curl. Book delivered in perfect condition (bought as a gift for someone) in a secured box with padding. I'd contacted customer service prior to purchase to double check the item was new, as the price was cheaper than elsewhere. After I'd mentioned it was for a gift, customer service went out of their way to help. 5 star service and excellent book. Would highly, highly recommend!
