It's raining here, today. As I look down from the 20th floor I see a lot of round, black umbrellas with the occasional coloured or patterned one interspersed among them.
Here at UB Looking At The Future we have been working feverishly and are about to release a range of architecturally correct precipitation
repulsion devices. Initial market research shows they'll be popular with architects but a good marketing campaign should see the general public embrace them fairly quickly.
Designs include:
Cathedrals, complete with gargoyles and "stained glass" windows.
Ante-bellum mansions, and gazebos for the littlies.
Tudor Style homes, with "slate" roofing and small, high windows.
Sydney Opera House, with acoustically correct lining
Pagodas
The Pentagon
Sports Stadia
Buckinghuge Palace
The Pyramids (South American and Egyptian)
Taj Mahal... We've been having fun here, folks.
People will look forward to rainy days, just to see the sights they can't get to in person.

And in one side. Yes. So do most sports stadia. I didn't think it would be the first anno~, I must admit. |

I just found this and think it's really enchanting! I had an idea about a 'garden arbor-umbrella' but you've already improved it. |
