Third Environment - Bombed Attic

For my third and final environment I'll be making a bombed out attic that people had been hiding in.
This scene will focus more on environmental story telling. Using visual clues to give the player information about the type of people that inhabit here and what they are like. This area will be going for a more confined an claustrophobic feeling.

Second Environment - Giant Bridge

For my second environment I have chosen the theme of a tiny village built into the  side of a giant's bridge. This like the palace will have a overbearing and imposing architecture in places but will be more focused on diagetic in game assets. For instance what would smaller people use for windows or tools. It would be taking a lot of inspiration from things like the borrowers.

First Environment - Imperial Palace

For my first environment I've decided to go for an imperial palace throne room based loosely off of roman architect. The main themes of this environment is large imposing and overbearing structures. I have been taking a lot of inspiration from the artist Giovanni Battista Piranesi, particularly his renderings of roman architecture. Examples below.

But I will also be using examples of ancient Egyptian  and Greek ruins as well as giant Buddhist pray wheels. Here are a few.
