Retrotopia: an longing for “the past as the future”.

The term “retro” derives through the Latin prefix retro, definition “backwards” or “in previous times,” and “Utopia,” the name for a perfect community, taken from the name of a book printed in 1516 by Sir Thomas More, describing a fictional island with a seemingly perfect socio-politico-legal system.

Think alternative 80s, the walkman, dad moustaches and space exploration.

In other words, it’s Dune swimming in synth-wave, or an idealized version of 80s Miami mixed with modern eco-city designs.

You can call it discopunk.
