Thanks for posting this, I'd never heard of that style before. It's magnificently brash and gaudy and ignores all the boundaries of good taste! The costumes some of the dancers wore at the end look like something from Ghost in the Shell 2 come to life in the Andes... a real global mashup :)

Looks like Overwatch buildings (I mostly just skipped to pretty retro-future houses and skipped the talky bits).

I love this so much. In architecture I really hate the brutalism and minimalism that seems to be everywhere. Everything looks like the set of a bad, dystopian, 80's science fiction movie. I like the variety and bold colors and expression in each of those buildings.

This stuff is wild, totally reminds me of some of the hyper-stylized neon decor in Big Trouble in Little China. :thumb:

Is that building photoshopped together?

no ... it looks like the architect just did a face for the building ... these are oftentimes business with homes on top (see the nice house on top?) ...
