# Conceptual Architecture Renderings Onward Visualizes the Would-Be Architecture World By Kalin Ned | Published 2018-07-09 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/conceptual-architecture-rendering References: [onstride](https://www.onstride.co.uk/blog/7-city-structures-never-built-brought-to-life/) & [neomam](https://neomam.com) Onward – a blog segment that is operated by On Stride Financial, works in partnership with creative agency NeoMam Studios in the development of seven [conceptual architecture renderings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/architectural-resource). As not all forward-thinking designs leave the drafting table, the manipulated images depict the would-be landscape of metropolitan cities. In particular, the project visualizes some of the “most unique and inspirational [proposals] in history” that never made the cut. The cities that are depicted in the conceptual architecture rendering project include Bangkok, Chicago, Tokyo Bay, Paris, London, St. Petersburg, and New York. The inexistent structures that are visualized in the images prove to be a majestic, beautiful and whimsical addition to the skylines of the cities. However, the projects proved to be either too expensive or too ambitious to build. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.5/10 - Popularity: 63% | Activity: 35% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Conceptual Architecture:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Explore the use of cutting-edge technologies like virtual reality and augmented reality to create immersive experiences for architectural visualization. - **Forward-thinking Designs:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop sustainable and eco-friendly architectural solutions that push the boundaries of traditional design and construction methods. - **Inexistent Structures:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Use advanced materials and modular construction techniques to create scalable and customizable architectural designs that address the challenges of urbanization. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Architecture:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Incorporate parametric design tools and generative algorithms to efficiently create and optimize complex architectural forms. - **Technology:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop AI-powered software solutions for automated architectural design and simulation, enabling faster and more precise decision-making. - **Construction:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Utilize 3D printing and robotic construction techniques to streamline the building process and reduce labor costs. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Colorful Metaverse Cities](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/metaverse-cities.md) - [Parametric Style Video Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/reimagine-london.md) - [AI-Generated Real-World Transformations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ai-generated-world.md) - [AI-Generated Retrofuturistic Objects](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/retrofuturistic-objects.md) - [Abstract Fantasy Home Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/abstract-fantasy-home.md) - [Bridge-Defining Tranquil Cities](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mindfulness-city.md) - [Futuristic Cultural Spaces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-lucas-museum-of-narrative-arts.md) - [Sci-Fi Coastal Hotel Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/epicon.md) - [Upcoming Architectural Floating Parks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/centroparco.md)
