Even the Illuminati base architecture reflect the dark, technologically advanced aesthetics of the faction moral itself. They are described as forever young and hungry, and does not embrace traditions. And this shows through the faction's aesthetics. Very clean, very revolutionary with the designs. Therefore the over all feel of the corporation is very science fiction looking, and appear to be ahead of our time.
Color theme wise, the faction is almost clinical. Greys, blues, whites and blacks, are the basic color palette Illuminati costumes use, is again very corporal looking.
I started looking at suit designs and movies that showcase this type of fashion, such as Men in black, In time, Constantine, Matrix. etc
One movie stood out to me was Hitman, which reminded me of the game of the same name.
The Illuminati faction showed many similarities, aesthetically wise and essence wise with those of Hitman, and this reminded me of concept arts for Hitman:
These are concept art for the game Hitman. They are quite inspiring as in a way it reflects what the Illuminatis are like, dark and secretive killer agents behind banks and business. In Hitman you play as an assassin, also clean and sharply dressed. This is very similar to the Illuminati faction. Therefore their outfits also echos the formal, cold, sharp dressed business attires.Illumiatis are described to be the opposite of the Templars, and they are against eachother head on. In a way Illuminatis are seen as a unti-hero sort of faction, ruthless and would do anything for a piece of useful information or money.
As for my project, like i mentioned before i was looking at mech-suits, to push the science fiction + fantasy concept even further, creating body armors that is a popular theme in Japan to compliment the Tokyo update that is coming soon.
Therefore by looking through the already existing Illuminati designs i visualized some form of a sci-fi tech, combat armor, utilizing the Illuminati colors. This would be the aesthetic i would work towards to.
