Scifi writers: the setting is sleek and futuristic
Scifi set designers:

Fun fact: Beverly Hills was so named because the transition from brutalist architecture to futuristic aesthetics impressed hollywood socialites so much that they renamed it from “Rodeo Land and Water” to simply “Beverly”.
Most of this is not true.
It’s also where John Rodentberry came up with the concept for Bevely Crusher.
