30 Gorgeous Examples Of Retro Futurism Illustrations

Share via Facebook

Retro-futurism is a trend in the creative arts showing the influence of depictions of the future produced prior to about 1960. Characterized by a blend of old-fashioned “retro” styles with futuristic technology, retro-futurism explores the themes of tension between past and future, and between the alienating and empowering effects of technology. Primarily reflected in artistic creations and modified technologies that realize the imagined artifacts of its parallel reality, retro-futurism has also manifested in the worlds of fashion, architecture, literature and film.

In this article I have collected 30 superb examples of retro futurism illustrations and concepts.

    great depictions – I like the phone one; they all have that element of guessing correctly, but using some elements that just haven’t changed (eg phone with keys – yay! – but with chord and clunky – ohhh.)
