A submerged future. A city shaped by control, isolation, and endurance.

Venice 2310 is a speculative documentary project by Giacomo Drudi, set in the year 2310.
It investigates the existence of Neo Venice, a self-contained, ocean-bound city-state that emerged in the aftermath of environmental collapse and systemic failure.

The project uses visual storytelling, speculative design, and documentary language to explore the structures, technologies, and social dynamics that define life within Neo Venice.
It doesn't imagine a better future. It observes a possible one — shaped not by utopia, but by exhaustion.

Venice 2310 also reflects a personal exploration: a way to merge my passion for science fiction with the aesthetic and conceptual potential of artificial intelligence. The project examines not only the future of humanity, but also the evolving boundaries of creativity itself.

This page is structured like a journal — a continuously evolving archive. It grows over time, following the spontaneous emergence of new ideas, designs, and fragments of life imagined inside Neo Venice. There is no fixed endpoint. Only expansion.

Extinction came for animals long before it came for anything else — one of the first costs of a world that ran out of room. And yet, in Neo Venice, animals still exist. Not as descendants of anything that once lived, but as creations born entirely from the whims of the tower's residents.

Over time, an industry of replicas took shape — domestic and otherwise, built rather than bred. Some are kept the way pets once were, for company in a place that offers little of it. Some exist purely as declarations of wealth, engineered rarity in a world with nothing left to spare. And some are put to more practical use: built not to comfort, but to protect their owners from the dangers the city breeds in its lower depths.
