They should look like commieblocks because they're going to be overpopulated soon.

They should have just continued down the same path they were on in the pre-war era. The styles changed, but the fundamentals remained the same.

Today everything is made of glass, steel and plastic, and everything is made up of simply geometric shapes. There are no details anywhere, and every building looks like some cheap, plastic gadget designed by Apple, that will be outdated in two years.

Think erosion and Kintsukuroi. The conservation of old neoclassic architecture with modern and expencive prostetics that insinuate a past that is not there anymore. Like the david statue on the children of man movie. All in the name of respect of the past and not a replica with parasitic elements like pipes, exposed metalic frames, skin covers or facade that floats in front of the old but disrespect with its presence, etc. Go look the prague of deus ex man kind divided and you will get it.
