Among Fuller's bizarre imagination stood flying cars, submarine cities, and hovering settlements. These ideas reflect the ingenious mind of an artist and gives insight in his freethinking nature.
He drew a lot of his inspiration for his designs from nature and believed that one day people would live in elemental-free domes, protected from the outside. The U.S. Expo 67 displays a part of this fantasy with its shade control system and in the way that it is protected from the weather.
Fuller thought that the future was not necessarily dependent on the past. His way of supporting change was by "modifying the environment." He considered himself as guiding people in "preferred directions." Fuller did not support materialism and looked down on mass production.
