Silo really feels like a mix of 1984 and Snowpiercer
it reminds me of the preface of "All That Is Solid Melts Into Air", about (post)modernism; analyzing the architecture of Brazil's new capital, Brasìlia, designed as "embodying the hopes of the Brazilian people", but turning out to be a city perfect for holding control, depriving people of common spaces to freely interact, and providing ample infrastructure to quell revolution
and, because it always goes back to Jacob Geller: Worlds Designed for Violence
possibly spoilers for Silo/Snowpiercer
actually they're both structures built for control, incredibly easy to have checkpoints either in a train or a single staircase, and cut off entire sections. literally just vertical/horizontal variants
