About Archigram Walking City (1964)

Archigram's Walking City is architecture as comic-book prophecy — giant reptilian-mechanical structures striding across post-nuclear landscapes on telescoping legs, drawn by Ron Herron in 1964 for the most radical architectural collective Britain ever produced. The aesthetic is hot, plastic, mobile, expendable.

This system channels the Archigram magazine's pop-art collage density: simultaneous saturated colors, chunky futuristic display type, heavy black borders, and the conviction that buildings should walk and cities should be disposable.
