In 1959, a group of architects came together to form the new movement called "Metabolists". Their subjects were the city in its urban context, the city in the upcoming mass societies, and creating architectural structures for people in these environments. The habitat should then be flexible and extendable to huge scales.
They understood architecture as a way to fulfill the needs of people in that changing society whose laws should be built on new laws of space instead of the old ones: form and function.
In light of this, totally new and modular architectural structures were created.
