New York World's Fair 1964-1965
Site: Flushing Meadow Park

Computer animation of the Underground Home, one of the exhibitions in the 1964-65 World's Fair. From the brochure "It is built, like a ship in a bottle, inside of an oblong shell of waterproof concrete 130 feet by 90 feet wide. The shell's concrete top, 36 inches below the surface, is covered by the earth's insulation. The Underground Home is thus protected from the ravages of nature, the physical and psychological assaults caused by our industrialized society and the population explosion." Still buried in Flushing Meadow Park, across from the Hall of Science.
