The Archigram Archival Project
“The Archigram Archival Project is run by a team from EXP, the Research Centre for Experimental Practice at the University of Westminster and was funded by a Resource Enhancement Grant from the Arts and Humanities Research Council. Collaborative help was kindly provided by the surviving members of Archigram or their heirs who retain copyright of all images.”
The old site was a bit of out of date. This is great!
2 million more
In the West Australian today…
[From the West]
By 2050 Perth’s population is set to double. That is half a lifetime. 2300 more schools will be needed to sustain Western Australia’s education needs. All of this has been put within the context of Landcape and Design in Richard Weller’s book, Boomtown 2050, already.
As an Architect/Engineer/Designer/Creator, exciting times are ahead.
On another note, last week an article in The West highlighted that although we copped horrendous storms the dams in the hills missed out. Maybe its time to rethink our centralised water system. Can 2 million more people be sustained on our already stretched water supply? It is not going to rain more in 40 years.
