Superstudio was an architectural firm, founded in 1966 in Florence, Italy by Adolfo Natalini and Cristiano Toraldo di Francia [it].
[7][8] Critics agree that the work of Superstudio was influential, or even entirely inspirational to, among others, architects like Zaha Hadid, Rem Koolhaas and Bernard Tschumi.
Evidence of this is notable when one considers that the use of strong symmetrical line-work and geometric form; mediums utilized by all of these architects, became staples of Superstudio's.
Furthermore, Superstudio's penchant for envisioning immense, entirely aspirational mega-structures is a trait visible in the early work of architects such as Hadid and Koolhaas.
[9] Superstudio was disbanded in 1978, but its members continued to develop their ideas independently through their writings, via education, architectural practice and other design projects.
