MARS (Modern Architectural Research) Group. Group of architects (including
Arup,
Coates, and
Lubetkin) founded in 1933 to promote
International Modernism and
Rationalism in the United Kingdom (it was really the UK branch of
CIAM). Taking its cue from Le
Corbusier's
Plan Voisin and other theoretical ideas, it proposed (1942) widespread destruction and rebuilding of London. It was disbanded in 1957.
