You know, all that shiny glass and polished metal of a modern city sure can look pretty. Add in some nice building designs to break up the blocky shapes of rectangular buildings, and it all goes together rather nicely.
I do sometimes wonder how cities would look if colors were in fashion… Even the more muted colors, the dusty roses and sage greens, would add a rather different feel to these buildings. We’ve got a solid idea of what a city should look like, but much of it is from arbitrary fashions and costs of materials. If colored metal was as cheap as plain, why, who knows what people would have made by now?
