The essay belongs to a monographical issue of the prestigious Swiss architectural magazine Archithese on the work of the florentine radical architecture group Superstudio. Drawing on autobiographical accounts and the historical context of the intellectual and political ferment of 1960s Florence, this text situates Superstudio’s radical architectural vision at the intersection of pop aesthetics, Marxist critique, and interdisciplinary experimentation. The author, Gabriele Mastrigli, reveals how the group challenged conventional design ideologies by fusing art, architecture, and ideology into a shared method of resistance.
