Anne Holtrop's Trail House

Gotta love this one. The entire project is inhabitable circulation. Perhaps the same idea as the Droog House by Atelier Bow Wow, but an entirely different way of resolving that idea.

Archigram

The Archigram Archival Project is online. Please have a look.

Good photos of more recent projects at Iwan Baan's site.

Centre Pompidou

I didn't know that Rogers Stirk Harbour + Partners had such a comprehensive website. Thanks to a (perhaps misunderstood) comment from Catherine, I now do.

I think Catherine was looking for a floor plan of the Pompidou. If so, it is here.

Also, whilst I expect Catherine was raising the Pompidou in Paris, the Centre Pompidou in Metz by Shigeru Ban is very close to completion. There is info at Dezeen and Designboom.

Also, have a look at the German furniture company Tecta.

Amongst other things, they produce the folding version of the Breuer club chair and this other beautiful chaise also by Breuer.
