Peter Crump was a member of Street Farm, a London-based collective of anarchist architects and designers working in the early 1970s. They published Street Farmer, an underground paper that, alongside mutating tower blocks, cosmic tractors and sprouting one-way signs, put forward manifestos for the radical transformation of urban living. They offered a powerful vision of green cities in the control of ordinary people (and ordinary sheep), not capitalist, statist, socialist or any other kind of planners or developers.<\/p>\n
In 1972 \u2018Street Farm House\u2019 hit international headlines as one of the first structures intentionally constructed as an eco-house. Two members of the group moved to Bristol, where the Street Farm influence can be seen in the construction\/design of St Werburgh\u2019s City Farm Caf\u00e9. Peter\u2019s illustrated talk will be a unique opportunity to hear about the philosophy and exploits of the Street Farmers first hand.<\/p>\n
