GREGOIRE ALEXANDRE is a photographer that uses light and space within a studio context to spectacular effect, with huge sculptural props and constructions forming his compositions. GO LOOK.

Archigram are often considered amongst the most influential design collectives of the modern era. During the 1960s Peter Cook, David Greene, Mike Webb, Ron Herron, Warren Chalk and Dennis Crompton challenged, and later changed forever, the architectural and design establishment with seminal works and ideas. These were usually speculative and incredibly progressive (the piece above is a speculative proposal for a pill that induces an virtual or imaginary designed environment in the consumer…yeah) evoking horror in peers at a time when modernism was seen as the only acceptable design solution.

Their work has, until now, been hard to track down, stored casually by the artists themselves and poorly documented. However the University of Westminster’s Dr Kester Rattenbury has now brought almost all of the collective works (roughly 10,000 items) together in one concise website. This is a truly invaluable and enjoyable resource to explore.
