Retrofuturistic city by Tatsushi Morimoto (1984)

No more direct source unfortunately. From my research these were scanned from a print magazine.

  • Seems about right:

    • Not a train in sight
    • loud helicopter overhead
    • air is practically unbreathable hence all the bubbledome buildings
    • parks devoid of any wilderness but are carefully sculpted artificial gardens
    • skyscraper offices have a dearth of furniture meaning that they're largely investment vehicles
    • 5 cars on the road for all this density, no one actually lives here but are driving through.

    This is weirdly accurate

    • It's the future we were denied, but maybe we were better off being denied it in the end?

      • I think it's our soon to be future city centers: for aesthetic, not for function
