Dennis Crompton was a member of the architectural collaborative Archigram, established in London in 1961. Working together until 1975, the group operated as an experimental think tank, producing a magazine, projects, models, exhibitions, and proposals that represented a shift in how architectural practice is considered. Archigram prioritized processes and structures for living over the notion of architecture as commodity. Influenced by pop culture, and responding to the proliferation of technological advances and increasing social and political discontent of the time, Archigram's production emphasized mobility and flexibility in ways that continue to have currency today. Crompton established the Archigram Archive in 1975 and manages the exhibition Archigram: Experimental Architecture 1961 - 74, which has been touring internationally since 1994.
