Archigram Archival Project

Oh. My. GOODNESS.  I think my brain, heart, and eyes just exploded from all this incredible imagery...!  A big thank you to my friend Kate for sharing this.

The Archigram Archival Project is the brainchild (and love child) of members of EXP, an architectural research group from the University of Westminster in London.  Their aim is to seek out and preserve the many works of avant-garde architectural group Archigram, completed mainly between 1961 and 1974.

There are literally thousands of images included in this archive thus far.  May I suggest you block out some time to browse through the collection - you won't be disappointed!

[Images: From the Enviro-Pill project, 1969 - "a speculative proposal for a pill for inducing architecture or virtual and imaginary environments in the mind."  WHAT!!]
