The extraordinary influence of the mainly unbuilt 1960s-70s architectural group Archigram is internationally acknowledged. Exhibitions of their work have toured major institutions worldwide, they were awarded the RIBA Gold Medal in 2002, and are recognised influences on many of the world’s greatest contemporary architects and buildings. Yet the bulk of their visionary work remains uncatalogued and inaccessible, stored in domestic conditions, subject to dilapidation, sale and loss.

  In collaboration with Archigram members and their heirs, EXP has been awarded three years funding by the AHRC to form an online, searchable, item level, descriptive catalogue and restricted digital surrogate of the work, for both specialist and public research

We are currently running the pilot study stage of the project.  The first images included are available for search or browsing. You can also view interviews of Archigram members or see a slideshow of project images.
  Please note: all copyright of images is from Archigram itself.  Those wishing to use images should contact Dennis Crompton dennisc@atlas.co.uk. For Ron Herron images, contact Simon Herron at www.velvetair.co.uk
