<p>Constant died in the summer of 2005. Thomas Doebele and Maarten Schmidt filmed the artist during the last months of his life. They followed him and his dog, Tikus, on their daily stroll to the artist's studio, where he finished his last painting Le Piège (The Trap).

<p>Constant’s “city for homo ludens,” New Babylon, was a “nomad camp on a planetary scale.” It was born in 1956 in Alba, Italy, in a settlement of Piedmontese travelers on the land of painter Pinot Gallizio. Fifty years later, <em>Domus</em> magazine visits the site to reconstruct the origins of architecture’s first nomadic utopia.<br /> <br /> Photography by Armin Linke.
