Superstudio, The Continuous Monument, An Architectural Model For Total Urbanisation, 1969
Natalini wrote in 1971 “…if design is merely an
inducement to consume, then we must reject design;
if architecture is merely the codifying of bourgeois
model of ownership and society, then we must reject
architecture; if architecture and town planning is
merely the formalization of present unjust social
divisions, then we must reject town planning and its
cities…until all design activities are aimed towards
meeting primary needs. Until then, design must
disappear. We can live without architecture…”

The Demolition of the Pruitt-Igoe Building.
"Happily, it is possible to date the death of Modern
Architecture to a precise moment in time." Charles Jenks.
After months of preparation, the first building was demolished
at 3 p.m., on March 16, 1972. The second one went down
April 22, 1972. The first stage of demolition completed on July
15.
Pruitt-Igoe was a large urban housing project in St. Louis,
Missouri.
Built 1954-5
Architect - Minoru Yamasaki, who also designed the World
Trade Centre, New York.
Architectural Forum praised the layout as "vertical
neighborhoods for poor people"
Each row of buildings was supposed to be flanked by a "river
of trees"
By 1968 the authorities were encouraging people to leave.
By 1971 it was calculated that the estate had cost $57 million
yet had never been more than 60% occupied.
By late 60s it was notorious: extreme poverty, crime, and
segregation.
32 buildings were demolished in total from1972-4.

The Byker housing forms a wall to protect the residents from the
noise of a busy road situated along the edge of the site (see
figure 4.6). The windows are small and the walls are high to
reduce the amount of noise which is allowed to penetrate into the
apartments, communal path ways and green areas. Within this
wall the individual apartments form a complex pattern. The
arrangement of the communal areas and housing is similar to
Van Eyck‟s „Nagele village‟. There are a number of open green
areas which form focal points for the corresponding housing. In
consistency with Van Eyck‟s ideas, Eskine uses the internal
walkways, galleries and bridges to visually and figuratively
connect with the open spaces.

Staphane Malka, “Auto-defense”
Malka bu tasarımı terk edilmişler, marjinalleştirilmişler, mülteciler,
göstericiler, muhalifler, hippiler, ütopyacılar ve tüm türden
uyruksuzları birleştirme çabasını ortaya koyuyor. Bu konsept
tasarımı Malka, göz ardı edilen kamusal alanların, prefabrik ve
gasp yoluyla inşaat sistemleri ile kentsel sınırlamalara direniş
olarak kullanılıp kullanılamayacağını araştırıyor.
