ITT: Post your favourite aesthetics

[alix]

Post aesthetics which you like or that interest you in this thread. Any aesthetic is fine).

As for me, my favourite is without any doubt Frutiger Aero. While nostalgia plays a main factor in it, the calm music, combination of nature and digital, its humanism and its utopian feelings make it my most beloved aesthetic.

Other aesthetics which I also like are CyberneticPunk (not the same as Cyberpunk), Web Creep and everything related to the Old Web.

cyberpunk w/o dystopia
solarpunk w/o gov and byro interference
hacker(core)
retro-futurism
idea of americana (it is what it is - past that is idealized...)
global village coffeehouse
Y2K

I love the rococo aesthetic for rooms all the intricate details and art such a stark contrast to today's minimalism. I like the frutiger aero style of old windows as well as the Mac OS 9 classic

I like The Lighthouse quite a bit. It's absurd, gross, silly, mythological, manly and sea-based.

Similar to this, found on another portion of the site. I have a lot of dreams like this.

Currently I'm digging this 2000s preppy in pink look thanks to aespa's latest video.

For some reason I made a .pptx on exactly this back in... 2015? It's from a couple laptops ago in any case. Screencaps of the slides below. Each was paired with a song I liked (therefore the thumbnails I was too lazy to edit out). I'm very basic - I love hyper-detail with tons of color and landscapes I can get lost in.

I can feel the texture of this image

I'm a sucker for some good cassette futurism. I've always liked the look of tech from the 70s to 80s with its hard angles, analog interfaces, and CRT displays. It always conveyed a sense of reliability when I see it.

I also really like art deco.

Golden art deco buildings have a really unique vibe, as if they were almost religious

I've passed this place several times when me and my family used to live in Los Angeles. It's in Hollywood I believe.

 

[JupiterJazz]

Plantwave (?)

Lighthousecore

Brutalist/ Ecobrutalist

And finally, my most recent obsession, Edward Hopper paintings

Back with aespa's aesthetics, I love this fake poster SM made for their Girls album track list. I get the vibe it is partially inspired by 90's extreme metal (Death and Black) and maybe techno? I've seen this typeface style to be referred to as Cyber Sigilism. Extremely dope imo.

Whatever you call the Windows Vista UI.

There are probably others that aren't coming to mind right now.

I like how anyone who has messed around in photoshop can tell the exact function used to make most of these lol

 

[Skookumsquitch]

Indubitably retrofuturism / casette futurism.
The former:

The latter:

 

[Dr. MacGutsy]

Whatever this is called.
