The future is now

Does something like a combination between traditional japanese architecture and art deco architecture?

Buenos Aries, Argentina

do you mean this "colonial era" Japanese architecture?

not really,more like that slightly charming stereotypical japanese old house combined with art deco's smoothness

can you post any example ?

...

Guangzhou, China

there is no example though

...

so how anyone can like if it doesn't even exist

qt

Opinions?

Seeding was:
8 cities from East Asia
6 from Europe
6 from North America (USA + Canada)
4 from Southeast Asia
3 from Oceania
2 from Latin America
2 from Middle East
1 from South Asia

real qt I love how nicely packed american cbds are

Depends on the city. I'd say that there are probably only about a dozen or less in the US (discounting independent cities that are in the metro areas of larger indepdent cities, which is also common) with this level of density

There are many "cities" in the US (especially in the South and West) that are basically gigantic suburbs

>Does something like a combination between traditional japanese architecture and art deco architecture?
Are you asking if it exists? Because if so, likely not.

In general, Art Deco isn't really a style that caught on outside of the Americas, much less in Asia, aside from the few posts in China the US owned. By the time America had direct influence over Japan after the war, the style was already out of fashion.

You won't really find much architecture in general that combines the best of western and eastern, though naturally some examples exist.

re what do you think

Well, you put two cities from Central America to represent Latin America as a whole, which I think is unfair to the entire continent bellow.

Panama is fair game, but Mexico is a bit too weak imo. I think Santiago and Bogota are marginally better, alongside a number of Brazilian cities.

Miami I would switch out, though. I think Seattle for instance is much better.

Bogota isn't better, none of Brazilian skylines have any skyline at all either

maybe Santiago then
>Miami I would switch out, though. I think Seattle for instance is much better.
i dont knwo if its "better" Miami is much larger thats for sure

>none of Brazilian skylines have any skyline at all either
Brazil may not have the tallest towers, but it sure has many of them. If this is not a skyline, I don't know what is.

And Bogota is more aesthetic in my opinion, though very old and outdated. Miami might be larger, but it's too uninspiring and doesn't really have any impact at all. I would honestly put a few American cities over it, but that's just me.

anyone have some nice chicago pics?
moving there in a few weeks
