hypermodern
Aggressively forward-looking style
Hypermodern describes something aggressively or excessively modern, pushing beyond conventional contemporary style into something almost futuristic: The building's hypermodern design felt out of place in the historic district.
In chess, hypermodern refers to a school of play from the 1920s that challenged classical principles, controlling the center with pieces rather than pawns.
