À cette date, dans le vrai monde, ces 'colonies' rangées dans les cartons à dessins de la NASA entonnent pourtant leur ultime chant du cygne. Cinq ans plus tôt, alors que le célèbre Stewart Brand avait mis un terme à son Whole Earth Catalog (1968-1972) au profit de CoEvolution Quaterly (1974-1985), les 'villes pour 10 000 habitants' conçues par Gerard O'Neill pour l'agence spatiale défrayent les rédacteurs hippies, libertariens architectes, astronautes ou futurs entrepreneurs de la Silicon Valley. Fallait-il fuir notre planète à l'heure de la Bombe P et du 'retour à la terre' ?

Summary:
What meanings do buildings and places convey to the people who use and visit them? Too often, design competitions and signature architecture result in costly eyesores that do not work. These studies, from those specific to the Wexner Center to those of historical significance, point towards a new method for shaping the visual form of buildings, places, and cities.
