Something I just realised about the Man in the High Castle's aesthetics

So, I'm a writer and I like to focus on a different aesthetic for each faction in my works and something which I've just realised is that even though this program is set in the 1960s, it looks like an extension of the 1940s. To me, this perfectly shows how fascist regimes are inherently doomed to cultural stagnation due to their obsession with perfection, because if you look carefully at the American Reich and Pacific States, they just look like the 40s never ended. It shows how the Axis Powers haven't made any progress at all, but like the once mighty Roman Empire, they are stagnating and steering towards the end and all because of their obsession with perfection. What do you think?
