I saw a similar show at U of O about five years ago.  Maybe the same one? Quick google search turns up nothing.

Italy, not the US, but his show must have been interesting, similar concerns with many architects world wide I would assume, it was the times. I'm pretty sure MB knows about many of these designers. My old boss Elbert Budin gave me a copy of the catalog, his studio and home looked like they were designed by hippie architects.

The catalog for HM is in the whole earth catalog format. Lowest price I’m finding it is in the $300+ range. I did come across that Woodstock house builders book in the research process. The exhibit was at Cranbrook, I don't think it traveled. Thx for the moma link. 

The MoMA catalog is pretty cool. The jacket sleeve is velum with black printing but the color images are die-cut paper and float around inside the dust jacket.

The beanbag chair is Italian.
