Doha, Qatar: A Future City as Envisioned by Syd Mead


You may know "futurist" Syd Mead from his design work on geek friendly movies like Blade Runner, Tron and Aliens—but in his most recent work he envisions a future city
by the name of Doha, Qatar. Naturally, his work speaks for itself, but
I must admit that it stands in stark contrast to the bleak world of
Blade Runner. Maybe he has become more optimistic as the years have
passed. Oh, also, Joel's interviewing Syd soon and I'm sure if you have
questions, he'll ask them for you.
