Wes Anderson’s Isle of Dogs film sets influenced by metabolist architecture

This quote seemed useful in relation to our discussion on how each of your projects should address the year 2035:

“The aesthetic was 20 years in the future, but it’s not 20 years from our future,” Harrod told Dezeen. “It’s 20 years from some past point, like if you tried to think of Japan in 1963 and imagine 20 years from that future or past.”

It’s also interesting to read about how the two fictional sites from the movie Megasaki City and Trash Island are both inspired by elements from reality – a typical world-building technique to make a fictional set more believable. As Ralph Waldo Emerson wrote “Fiction reveals truth that reality obscures.”
