Commissioned by M+ Museum of Visual Culture in Hong Kong, DAS created the Archigram Cities series drawings for Archigram Cities Symposium held in 2020. Based on three most famous works by Archigram – Walking City, Plug-in City, and Underwater City, DAS developed the themes for the 3 drawings and named them as Walking, Plugging, and Floating. In each drawing, DAS combined the selected works by Archigram with designs by other architects and vernacular construction in Asian cities which both share similar concepts to Archigram’s design. By fabricating those grand cityscape, DAS presented how Archigram’s ideas of the city resonate with architectural projects and urban phenomena in Asia.
