'From Fantasy to Reality' Peter Cook

Founding member of Archigram, Professor Peter Cook will discuss the architectural drawing as a means of expression, as an alternative to the architect's idealised dream of the perfect client, fantastical building materials and the ideal site. The fantasy architectural project need not be practical or even buildable and it can provide optimistic visions of the technological advances of the future, an opportunity for architectural flights of fancy. Cook will also discuss his feelings on finally completing a major building himself (with Colin Fournier) the Kunsthaus in Graz, Austria.

'From Fantasy to Reality' Peter Cook Monday 27 September 18.30 Jarvis Hall, Royal Institute of British Architects, 66 Portland Place, W1
