Instant City

Instant City Bournemouth, 1968-70/1994

Archigram

 

A fictional project by Archigram, Instant City imagined an airship that contained all the cultural resources of a metropolis . Moving from site to site, and not restricted by architecture, it redefined the city as a temporary event, much like a festival, rather than a location fixed in space.

Part of the ‘home of the future’

 

Home Futures

(November 2018 to March 2019)

 

...a series of dreamlike passages and rooms designed by New York-based architects SO-IL and explore yesterday’s visions of the future – as avant-garde speculations are displayed alongside contemporary objects and new commissions.

...more than 200 objects and experiences to trace the key social and technological aspirations that have driven change in the home. Historical notions of the mechanised home and the compact home are displayed alongside contemporary phenomena such as connected devices and the sharing economy.
