Aerial, realistic view of an urban roundabout plaza designed as an abstract island landscape with sandy, rocky, and vegetated zones, and a lit sunken circular courtyard.

A realistic aerial view of an urban roundabout plaza inspired by Qeshm Island, Iran. The plaza is designed as an abstract island landscape, with the ground surface divided into flowing zones representing different coastal ecosystems: light sandy textures for silver and sandy beaches, dark muddy and vegetated textures inspired by mangrove forests, rough rocky stone surfaces inspired by rocky shores and turtle nesting beaches, eroded layered textures inspired by Star Valley and natural caves. At the center of the plaza, a sunken circular courtyard acts as the symbolic heart of the island, inspired by Kharbas Cave and traditional central courtyards of southern Iranian architecture. The central element is recessed into the ground, made of natural stone and plaster-like materials, with soft seating edges and no vertical monument. Warm in-ground lighting subtly outlines the ecosystem zones and highlights the central sunken space at night. The overall design is horizontal, minimal, climate-responsive, and deeply connected to nature. The plaza clearly reads as an island from above, recognizable as Qeshm Island even from an airplane view. ultra realistic, architectural visualization, aerial drone view, soft desert coastal colors, natural materials, no statues, no text, no people focus, cinematic lighting, high detail, 16:9 aspect ratio.
