Hard geometry and fractality in landscape design


My landscape design of two layers of hard geometry in a fractal landscape, full of Palm trees. On the far left, vernacular excavated architecture or a rocky terrain.
I see it as an aerial picture of grand extents, but it can also be applied to smaller scales, this way the Palm trees will be just plants.
The second detail is proposing the water flooding the islands. 
In between the composition, a narrow strip of landscape. A tall divider, a screen or a passing vessel.  When the tide changes, -or the water level for a man-made landscape-, the underwater plants emerge or submerge. This landscape is dynamic, continuously modifying itself.
