Describe why you have chosen this place as a visual? What story does your design tell?

The Riviera Maya is much more than just fun. It's a magical place where the three guardians- Huh, the iguana; Mo, the guacamaya, and Kay'Op, the parrotfish- sent by the gods, created a paradise as beautiful as only heaven can be. Huh was the guardian of the earth. Mo, flying around was in charge of the air and skies. Kay'Op was there to protect the sea.
