The Archigram Archival Project is finally online and ready to for browsing.

The archive “makes the work of the seminal architectural group Archigram available free online for public viewing and academic study.”

The newly launched site includes more than 200 projects; “this comprises projects done by members before they met, the Archigram magazines (grouped together at no. 100), the projects done by Archigram as a group between 1961 and 1974, and some later projects.”

There are also brief biographies of each participating member of the collaborative group:

Warren Chalk

Peter Cook

Dennis Crompton

David Greene

Ron Herron

and Michael Webb.

Beautiful and mindblowing.
