Coral Reef in a Clockwork City: Cartoon Brilliance

Cartoon-style coral reef reimagined as a vibrant clockwork city: brass gears and copper pipes form coral-like shapes on riveted walls; luminous anemones and branching corals cling to wind-up machinery, while clock towers with big faces tick and glow. Glass canals thread through the streets with steam-powered boats, and schools of mechanical fish swim past wind-up keys and steam vents. The city is bright and whimsical, with bold outlines, saturated blues, pinks, and golds, playful lighting and a sense of motion.
