This new residential neighbourhood is missing outdoor amenities like tennis/basketball courts, or a football pitch. Additionally, low lying brush is much more abundant in tropical areas and it would be cool to see some common tropical plants like certain cactuses or succulents in some of the exposed green areas. Love the series as always :)

All these people need some outside facilities. Playgrounds for children, football pitches, sports grounds, schools, etc.

@@ceccascorp8149 Wealth is only an inequality if the rich get power over the poor and much of it is caused by that. Inequality should be less about the poor and rich live in similar living conditions and more the poor should have equal rights and power as the rich so they are as important as the wealthy. Wealth isn't always a divider it's the wealthy that's the problem, inequality isn't the mansions it's the people living in the mansions. (Ik some smart as is going to say uhm not it's this or that but this is my opinion and Idc if theres anything wrong with this. Oh and screw autocorrect I never liked you in the first place)

I know the series has been focused significantly on the downtown and this new residential area, but I think it could be cool to see some industries and stuff. A power plant (can be solar arrays, or like a reactor building?), some recycling stuff, some factories. yeah its a different vibe from downtown, but I'm sure that with a bit of blending in between and maintaining similar styles you could pull it off really well. other ideas could be some different architecturally themed parts of the city, possibly a harbour (though a harbour other than the one in the cove or the space elevator would probably be for industries on the shore), A much lower density part of the city (for rich and famous people), some recreational districts (like an amusement park), a college or something (since being such a big important city with a space elevator, people would want to come and learn and get opportunities). There is so much you could do, and I cant wait to see what gets done :)

I like the manicured jungle aesthetic. It makes sense: clear the underbrush while keeping the island vibe with hardy trees that don't really rely on rainforest symbiosis. It's less wildlife friendly, but this is a CITY. The underbrush can be up the hills or whatever. But definitely not with the manicured housing.

i am from Lahr and i emediatly recognized the round buildings lol. they were build in the 60s by the canadians as baracks since there was a huge canadian military base here. A large part of the houses in that part of town were built by the canadians.

this part looks alot like some fancy resort. with individual hotel buildings scattered about, a nice fancy plaza, water views, lots of big trees. the red roads definitely help that image in my mind too.

I think it would be cool if there was like a futuristic amusement park and would make sense in this asturis and also loving how the city is looking 💖💕

Always tuning in to see this city develope. One of the little joys of the week.

man, IDK why you haven't got a mil or so subs already... following from 10-15k subs and fell in love with the creativity and detailed works... kudos

Amazing, really love your ‘modern ruins’ section in the last episode, think you could thematically incorporate it into this section in a subtle way to add to that awesome concept. Great channel, great content! Thank you

I love everything… my only critique is the use of the vanilla swimming pool props layered on one another to mimic a fountain. There are some actual fountain props in the workshop I would use instead. Of course everything else is so impressive and beyond anything I could do.

I've been binging the series and am loving it ❤. I have this lore that Asturis is actually on a different planet. The space elevator is actually one of several positioned around the planets equator and connected (via the lazer positioning becons) to an orbital ring where massive cargo spaceships and cruise liners dock. This brutalist complex and the bridge were designed and constructed before the reset of the city as a place for the construction workers of the space elevator to live. It doesn’t have as much shade as expected because it was designed by an off world architect not familiar with the intense sun (LOL).The issue is partially solved by having most of the complex sunken, but future construction incorporates more practical shade structures. The high-speed rail continues in one direction to the planets capital city further in land.

About the pentagonal buildings - instead of making their balconies white, you should have gone with light wooden color. Would add a tiny bit of warmth to contrast the greyish brutalism all around.

Building a big ziggurat housing style complex into the side of one of the hills would be awesome! Also, would you mind adding little buffers to the end of the tram line (and the usual tram station details)? Another excellent video, really loving the direction of this series.

Alrighty, my Thursday Akruas fix! So many back-seat urbanists this week... Love the work you do! Great inspiration and execution in my humble opinion. Much more detailed and creative than any of my CS projects - but watching you work is inspiring. Must be hard to turn all this work into videos for us too.

Gods walking to all of those buildings would be absolute hell

As always wonderful video! One suggestion: could you detail tram terminus station more, i.e. add cables, barrier at the end of tracks and catenary masts? It could make this place even more realistic.

I just thought of a WAY better arrangement for that station: Seeing that it is a termination point; instead of the train stopping and turning around at the platform, you should have had the rails run through into a tiny underground 4 lane rail yard. This rail yard would double as both a supply point for the commercial buildings in the station, a spawn point for trains, office space for the railway company above, and all around made the pit more interesting than just a pair of rails. The DC AMTRAC station in the United States works similarly this way. I think Providence as well.. Probably alot of dead end stations now that I think about it It also would have been a safer way for trains to change lanes: The trains would not momentarily drive backwards to change lanes. They would drive forward into the depo and change lanes inside the depo safely out of the way of any other incoming trains.

I feel like these semi-circular buildings would be hotels because they have very scenic views and they look like hotels to me. They are decently far away from the city and the people could use the trams to go to the city center.

I'm my head, these blocks (probably housing) are made hempcrete and other "greener" concrete replacement... Nice looking district!

I love your series and its a great insperation for my scifi city! One suggestion is for the city centre, near the central plaza you could maybe add a chinatown of sorts, where people go to eat or socialise, with crowded pedestrian streets maybe it wont be as clean as the rest of the city because of the tourism

If you are looking for modern brutalist buildings, there are 'kukurydze' in Katowice, Poland not sure if there is an asset for it

Great video as always!

Is it still too early for a first-person tram/train/car journey around the city or its part? I'd love to see that brutalist part of the city from the first-person perspective. It must look even more impressive that way. Amazing work!

A perfect video like every time. Nice work.

love the episode but you forgot the tram station details :)

Очень круто ,прошлый город был очень технологичен ,а этот зелёный и очень красивый при этом не менее сложный ! Класс!

The brutalist development could include something like Camden's 1960s/70s social housing projects, the ziggurat style of the alexandra road estate, the whittington estate (where I happen to live) or the dunboyne road estate could really suit Asturis.

I'm sorry akruas, but I would like to see constructions that respect the relief (hill). In addition, there is a lack of more careful decoration of the spaces. It is a problem that also happened in aurelia. I'm a fan

Build a futuristic tiny home community as a stand-in for a trailer park

It is always "amazing" and enjoyable - apart from the brain sometimes complaining about information overload but ends up inspired. Thanks for all the vids - Is there a techincal service hub for all the trains somewhere, or is it thought to be under the city center (ish). - honestly I would not mind seeing your go bannas with a super techincal/industrial structure of some kind, fusion plant, hit-tech rail hub, water plant or a custom industry. ✌

You could use this technique to make a two-or three-level roundabout in the city center / old town!

Imagine a F1 Street Circuit in the city🤯

I think you forgot to place the usual tram stop signage at the stop in the circle. Looking really good, tho!

You should do a government palace, like a senete building

Very nice :)

I dont know, but this brutalist architecture has some major "Unreal II: The Awakening" vibes. Some of the first levels... Convert 13:40 to a reactor... yeah...

You're a PO wizard. 👍

The garden looked like a Prothean Ruin from Mass Effect!

Akruas, do you have acacia trees in this city? I think acacias would work well for places like plazas.

Hey man, if you need any more ideas for this kind of eco/futuristic architecture, check Vincent Callebaut. He has some very nice designs that should play sweetly with your city.

am i the only one who feels like this series is just an excuse for akraus to build weird tram stops and bridges?

Question: If 26:21 is a deadend, could you convert it to a single line at the end? For a light rail, there is no point in it beeing a double rail, because they have to wait anyway, till the station is free.. or am i wrong? It would be more efficient, or not? So, a double light rail convert into a single line raild at the end. Every train has to wait anyway until the train depart from the station. Sorry, bad englisch >.

I would love to see a more dense older area somewhere in the city turned into a night life district, sort of a sketchy place, to show the city's imperfections as well as economic development. Also a historical district would be nice for contrast with the new buildings. I also think this series needs some story (kinda like what two dollars twenty is doing in "Sunset city"). I don't exactly think it needs characters, but an explanation as to why the Space elevator was built and how the city took it's shape would be really great. Otherwise, a great series. Thank you!

To me, this feels like a very new city. Like, a new, very well funded colony on one of the most habitable worlds in the human sphere. The old district might have a “nasapunk” look, like Starfield. Very practical and machine-y. It’s where the people lived who built all of these structures, including the space elevator. I figure there’s something valuable on this world that is being mined or grown or whatever and shipped up the beanstalk. Those places might be far away from Asturis (though an industrial district is not a bad idea) and they were the first things built. Then the beanstalk, and then the second-oldest part of the city. Once the goods were flowing, the bigwigs decided that this world is nice enough to visit in person or even live on, thus the recreational/tourist facilities and nice homes with impressive views. There probably *is* a lot of inequality. These buildings in this episode seem like places that the office workers might live in-nice, but not ostentatious and with a serious, no-nonsense vibe. There’s probably a more bohemian area closer to downtown (it may be the old town where the pioneers lived) where artsier folk can be found. Some of those are likely troublemakers, potentially disrupting the corporate/colonial activities. For some reason, I’m imagining there are mecha in use on this world-by workers, criminals, and police as well as the military. I am getting serious Infinity/Masamune Shirow vibes. I wonder if there’s a mod that lets you replace the police cruisers with mechs. I love all this. There’s something about a Cities Skylines build that inspires world building like that. I want to GM an RPG set here. My own cities just look like boring, generic cities. Then again, I am just playing Cities Skylines, not turning it into Blender. Seriously, these custom buildings are incredible!
