Day 28: Malachite

Well, after we made 'Lapis', I got the bug for unusual houses with interesting textures so I built Malachite.

So I got a kind of green vision with insects.....

and butterflies.

I like the beetle doors.

and the bird wing butterflies.

The spiral staircase is a Toby masterpiece (well I still need some help).

Here is the ubiquitous roof terrace.

I thought it had a hint of enchantment......

...and might nestle in a secret forest!

Try it out for yourself:

Day 27: Customers Houses: A Glimpse of Flying Cloud

You may remember  my blog on Monet's island home which her friend Bob landscaped with her.

Well now they are sharing a sim and are much better friends and have really gone to town with their skills and talents in their new home: Flying Cloud..

Bob asked us to customise a build for them and to site it on the top of a mountain.

We used a modular approach and Bob and Monet decided that three units  would meet their needs.

No matter where  you cam around the build is in a magnificent setting

These shots of the living room..............

....and dining room....

...show off  Monet's unerring sense of colour....

......and design.

Bob meanwhile...............

....surpassed himself..............

.......with the landscaping.

We  put in a sunken fish pond in the dance area.....

You wont fall in as it has a glass cover.

When you have  out danced yourself you can relax in the bar across the lobby...........

There are many little touches of detail, like these cypressas.......

................the textures...........

.....hanging plants.....

... cosy fires.....

... and imaginative planting.

I have shown you four out of the six rooms.........it is the private  quarters  that I have omitted......well everyone is entitled to a little privacy.... even in SL!

Thanks for sharing Bob and Monet.... x
