Abstract |
The purpose of this study is to understand Archigram's architectural works by analysing Archigram, which was a little magazine issued from 1961 to 1974. Studies on the Archirgam's architectural works have been mostly focused on their projects themselves, not within the context of the medium, Archigram (little magazine). However, Archigram as a little magazine worked as a platforms where ideas and projects could be developed and communicated among the members. Therefore, this study focused on the distinct features of Archigram's architectural works which were influenced by its little magazine, Archigram. The major conclusion of this study is that Archigram's architectural works worked as media themselves; Archigram's architectural works are open-end conclusions which can be transformed and developed by other members; Archigram members created new temporality, creating 'up-to-the-minute' architecture. |
