From the Tower of Babel to the film set of The Matrix, visionary architectural projects have exerted a powerful hold over the imagination. Many of the apparently impossible ideas are eventually built, either in the form of grand architectural statements, or at the personal scale of houses, huts and even simple allotments. Using detailed studies of utopian plans as well as built realities, this book argues that imagining the impossible can have great practical benefits for architecture.
