Yona is definitely my favorite utopian architect.

Have a look on these crazy artworks he made for some huge architecture competitions (I think he almost never built anything), such as the Centre Pompidou, or the Forum des Halles in Paris.

Most of his work deals with post-apocalyptic matters: Rebuilding cities from scratch, in a world anihilated by a nuclear war or space pioneers homes.
Try to find his book L’architecture de Survie.
