Retro-Futurism: The Future Imagined in the Past

An interior depicting a past imagination of the future. The technology in the space appears advanced, but it is advanced as imagined by people decades ago: physical buttons and levers, analog gauges, CRT screens, rows of indicator lights, exposed connectors and wire harnesses. There are no touchscreens or wireless devices. These devices are integrated into the walls and countertops like furniture, serving as the protagonists of the space. Avoid: adding contemporary tablets and smart devices, using minimalist, interface-free modern technology, making the space truly futuristic, or hiding devices out of sight.

一個呈現舊時代未來想像的室內。空間裡的科技看起來很先進,但那是幾十年前的人所想像的先進:實體的按鍵與撥桿、指針式的儀表、映像管螢幕、成排的指示燈、外露的接頭與線束。沒有任何觸控螢幕與無線設備。這些設備被當成家具一樣整合進牆面與檯面裡,是空間的主角。避免:加入當代的平板與智慧型設備、使用極簡無介面的現代科技、把空間做成真正的未來、讓設備隱藏起來看不見。
