According to foreign media reports, French artists have already begun to outline what cities on Earth will look like 70 years from now. In the scenes they depict, cities have towering skyscrapers, flying cars in the sky, and industrialization is fully reflected in the future city. In the French artist's imagination, Paris and New York have lost their beautiful gardens and boulevards, replaced by tall gray skyscrapers, with industrialization being the concentrated embodiment of the future city.

The image shows a scene of industrial civilization developed to the extreme. A huge metal world "shrouds" New York's Times Square. It seems the future is not like this, but the artist believes that with the advancement of industrial civilization, cities will be "occupied" by more metal. If utopia is used to describe beautiful future urban life, then this scene should be regarded as a dystopian scenario, with huge industrial-era buildings becoming central landmarks of the city.

These images come from French designer Paul Chadeisson, who currently works at an entertainment gaming company in Paris, France. These future city designs will be used in an action game called *Remember Me*, which is set in Paris in 2084. The main plot of the game is to enter other people's memories and tamper with them. Although the artist's creation is set in 2084, you can still see many rundown street scenes.

The social gap between rich and poor is quite serious; many people still live in poverty. Huge neon lights, city flying cars, robots, and drones form a scene that is both modern and backward. The reason for creating these scenes is that the artist still retains some magnificent 17th-century buildings and famous cafés. In a future city ruled by metal, these elements are easily overlooked, and we can still see traces of the past city in the ruined city.

In the setting of the action game *Remember Me*, players can buy, sell, and trade memories with each other. Therefore, the city backgrounds adopt a design that combines many futuristic buildings with classic architecture. Moreover, future cities are more densely packed, with a large number of modern buildings filling the future city, while low-income people live in old buildings, which also indirectly shows the magnificence of past cities.

The future society described by French designer Paul Chadeisson is also a society full of surveillance. Flying cars and robots can be seen everywhere. This is a reality; future citizens may need to accept the fact of being monitored. The image shows drones and robots passing over the city and through the streets.

The huge aerospace mothership is a major highlight of the future world. This machine can float in the air above the city and can almost be considered a miniature city, equipped with living areas, flight runways, and other facilities that can meet the survival needs of part of the population.

In this image, the designer describes the peak of future urban development. Many cities have super-tall skyscrapers towering into the clouds, the world below is almost invisible, and one can even directly enter low-Earth orbit.
