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, Domus magazine visits the site to reconstruct the origins of architecture’s first nomadic utopia.
