London based evoL PsychogeogrAphix is one of the few groups openly practicing unitary urbanism today  . Constant Nieuwenhuys and Guy Debord disagreed about the praxis , issuing the designation "the complex, ongoing activity which consciously recreates man's environment according to the most advanced conceptions in every domain , " however the widening gulf between Nieuwenhuys' "structural" approach and Debord's focus on "content" eventually lead to Nieuwenhuy's split from the SI in 1960. Unitary urbanism, one of the major early Situationist concerns, stands on two tenets: The rejection of the standard Euclidean, almost wholly functional, approach to urban architectural design, and The rejection of the compartmentalized way in which "art " is typically detached from its surroundings. In the relative utopia of the UU ideal, the structural and artistic elements of human 's metropolitan surroundings are blended into such grey area that one cannot identify where function ends and play begins. The resulting society, while it caters to fundamental needs, does so in an atmosphere of continual exploration, leisure, and stimulating ambience.
