Your rendering reminds me of a quote from George Orwell’s novel 1984, “It was a bright cold day in April, and the clocks were striking thirteen.”

Endless City
Pure - I modelled a few building shapes and placed almost 1 million of them using geometry nodes. The shaders are randomised per instance and per mesh island - so buildings can have multiple colours and different window shapes.
The atmosphere is actually blue but I used a very orange sun light and it looked like pollution.
The geometry nodes arrange buildings in a grid, then rotate sections of the grid in a voronoi pattern (scaling them up to fill the gaps, and culling buildings near the edge leaving a small “river” between the islands). It looks very satisfying from above and from other angles it gives a slightly more realistic vibe where buildings line up with ones near them.
