Final Major Project - Initial Ideas, Mindmaps & Moodboards

As with all previous projects and units I need to find inspiration for my final major project. I knew that the subject I wanted to do would be an environment since I've been eager to try but never did. What environment I was going to do exactly was something I had yet to decide. So as with all previous projects I did both a mindmap and series of initial ideas, as well as a couple of moodboards.

This is my mindmap and initial ideas. In this I tried to look at time periods, cultures, genres and assets I could think about for my own design work. I did a fair bit of research for this. I looked at real world examples and concept artwork for fictional themes (Sci-Fi, fantasy etc).

This is my moodboard exploring the fictional genres and concept art from other artists. Still unsure about what exactly I want to do for my environment but just trying to gather some inspiration.

Here is my moodboard for real world examples. For this I tried looking at various locations, countries and see where, what and how I could incorporate my own twist on these environments. For example, how could I make the central Saudi Arabia district futuristic or Sci-Fi-like. If so maybe fantasy.
