vision 2 / basement workshop ,drawn by clifford harper , radical technology (1976)
designed for the basic maintenance of a large urban house with up to 20 occupants . this example includes facilities for clothes making and shoe repair , pottery , household decoration and repair , and poster making . the equipment could all run on low supplies of energy except the kiln , although the scene is imagined as a basement , it could easily be the center house workshop of vision 4

vision 3 / autonomous housing estate , drawn by clifford harper , radical technology (1976) intended for rural or semi rural areas , these dwellings would be independent of grid services . some services (waste treatment , some food , space and water heating) would be provided at the household level , others (electricity , water , cooking gas & some food) at the community level , where economies of scale make shared facilities cheaper . ๐
