This is a really interesting design, and reminds me a lot of the Myst games. The shapes and patterns are distinctive and consistent throughout the piece, leading to an immediately recognisable setting. I also really like the details like the wall paintings and the lashings holding the supports together. I love designs that show this attention to detail as if they really do work.

 

One slight issue I have looking at this is the tall silo in the middle at the bottom with the little sphere in front of it. I find it hard to resolve the silo as being curved outward, as my eye interprets the shading as curving inwards (concave). I think the main shadow on this one comes out a bit too far perhaps to give this effect.

 

Overall, the colours are nice, but perhaps a too little similar across the whole scene. The pod like structures, cliffs and canopies blend in together more than I’d like – though this might have been your intention as a kind of hidden village. The blue of the river and sky echoing the blue in the patterns is a really nice touch though.
