A RetroFuturism Sci-Fi Art Book of Postcard Worlds and Chrome Dreams

Book One of the Atomic Cities Series

by Keith Elliott

Step into a dazzling future that never was — but should’ve been.

Atomic Cities: Series 1 is a retrofuturism book that blends sci-fi art, visual storytelling, and speculative worldbuilding into a lush collection of vignette-style, postcard-inspired illustrations. This first volume explores 25 unique locations — each a dreamlike reimagining of American cities shaped by mid-century sci-fi, AI technologies, and futuristic design concepts.

From neon-lit harbors and moonlit ski resorts to AI-infused lighthouses and tiki-themed space islands, every page bursts with futuristic concept art rendered in bold, saturated color. Printed on premium color paper, it captures the full intensity of chrome, circuitry, and nostalgia.

Populated by rocket rangers, pin-up astronauts, cyber-cowgirls, and bio-luminescent forests, Atomic Cities is part AI art book, part speculative fiction art project, and wholly a celebration of imagination.

✨ For fans of retro sci-fi, atompunk, AI illustration, and the lost futures of the Atomic Age—welcome to the visual storytelling sci-fi series you didn’t know you were waiting for.
