In 1955, Nairn established his reputation with a special issue of the Architectural Review called „Outrage” (later as a book in 1956), in which he coined the term „Subtopia” for the areas around cities that had in his view been failed by urban planning, losing their individuality and spirit of place. The book was based around a nightmarish road trip that Nairn took from the south to the north of the country – the trip gave propulsion to his fears that we were heading for a drab new world where the whole of Britain would look like the fringes of a town, every view exactly the same.
