MOKO: The Tall One's Home

In a desolate distant future, with little hope left for Earth, scientists send advanced robots into space to find an inhabitable planet. Once the robots settle on the great and powerful planet of MOKO, they discover humans have already suffered and met their demise. Powered by the bright orange gem created by the planet, the robots develop a new society, celebrating the best parts of humanity.
To create this world, I take influences from traditional African and Caribbean cultures and combine them with futurism. This environment shows one of the main characters' homes. This character, known simply as the tall one, has the responsibility of mining the power source, gathering it, and sending it home via hovercraft to be processed and shared among his community.
