Archizoom Associati 1966-1974
Much like Archigram, Archizoom had many then far-fetched concepts, which gives a glimpse of a possible future.
No-Stop City was an idea created by experimental work, with research on environment, mass culture and the city. "the idea of the fading away of architecture within metropolis". One quote in particular sparked by interest.
"Considering architecture as an intermediate stage of urban organization that has to be overstepped, No-Stop City establishes a direct link between metropolis and furnishing objects: the city becomes a series of beds, tables chairs and cupboards; the domestic and urban furniture fully coincide. To qualitative utopias, we oppose the only possible utopia: that of Quantity"
