Virtual Museum "City of the Future"

Student: Allyanova Anastasiya

Supervisor: Elena Kitaeva

Educational Programme: Design (Bachelor)

Final Grade: 9

Year of Graduation: 2019

In my diploma, I create the concept of a virtual museum about the architecture of the “City of the Future”. One of the parts of the diploma is a visual study “The space of the city in the futuristic ideas of architects”. A book with the theme of visual research could complement the exposition of such a museum. Based on the name in my research, I will consider urban planning projects that were directed to the future. And under the term “futuristic” it does not imply any particular direction in architecture. This means that in their projects the architects were ahead of the time in which they worked.The purpose of the study is to trace the relationship of how people's fantasies about the ideal city of the future, how utopias and dystopias appeared and how it was reflected in urban planning projects and graphics architects.
