A group of avant-garde architects composed of Adolfo Natalini, Cristiano Toraldo di Francia, Roberto Magris, Gian Piero Frassinelli, and Alessandro Magris, (with Alessandro Poli from 1970 to 1972), Superstudio was one of the initiators of the so-called “Radical Architecture”.
Engaging in an attempt to anthropological re-foundation of architecture, he has been carrying out patient research for twenty years on objects, environments, and architecture, through design and construction. From 1973 to 1975 he was part ( as a co-founder) of Global Tools, a system of laboratories for the development of collective creativity. From 1973 to 1978 he dedicated himself to research and teaching, working on the “Extraordinary Material Culture”. The projects and writings of this group have appeared in numerous publications and exhibitions all over the world. Since its foundation, Superstudio has been developing research of a critical and theoretical nature that will rarely lead to the realization of concrete projects, preferring to give life to a utopian vision. The members convey their ideas through collages and critical texts often published in the magazine “Casabella”, at the time directed by Alessandro Mendini, also close to the positions of the Radical Architecture.
