The chapter examines how 20th-century utopian ambition migrated into architecture, urbanism and visual culture. From Le Corbusier's revolutionary designs to Lang's Metropolis, the ideal city is reimagined through form, technology and spatial organisation. Leading architects reflect on utopia's contemporary relevance, while cinema and painting capture both the promise and menace of the modern urban future.
