Elflords' EC/LC Application
Posted: Wed Mar 07, 2018 3:17 am
The Rank I'm applying for is: Epic/Legendary Crafter
My Game Name is: Elflords
My Project is called: New London
To get to my project: [/town spawn NewLondon] or [x: 14914 y: 69 z: 3788]
A brief description of my project: A city inspired by many eras and styles of architecture from around the world, made up of a residential district, downtown region, and national gardens with large public facilities. Among the many buildings are a multilevel Train Station built in the English Perpendicular Gothic style with a connecting train bridge; a three-level library inspired by the Second Empire architectural style of the 19th century; an expansive and colorful Opera House with inspiration from the French Beaux Arts period; the New London City Hall, inspired by Independence Hall and other colonial architecture in the United States; a monument based off of the Angel of Independence and similar structures of Mexico City, Mexico; variations of Japanese Torii and pagodas that adorn the town spawn and surrounding gardens; a deck arch bridge modeled from Parisian bridge architecture; and many more creations to be explored in the city.
The oldest section of the city is the Residential District. Each one of the colorful homes located in this area is unique. The first garden built in the city is positioned in between the two roads of this district and connects the downtown and residential sections. It is decorated with many flowers and arched pathways and also includes a statue of wings representing victory.
The center of the Downtown region is located in the town square, which is surrounded by a monument and park, located in between the Train Station and City Hall. Adjacent to the square are eight New York City style buildings, including a bookstore, a hotel, various restaurants, a clothing store, and more. On the other side of these buildings is a reflecting pond which is covered by two unique bridges and surrounded by trees and gardens.
The National Garden section of the city includes the two largest buildings of the town: the Library and Opera House, each accompanied by gardens with intricate paths, trees, and other decorative details. The Library has an overall dark interior theme that contrasts with the blue and white boldness of the exterior. However, each section of the building is unique; the right half of the building is the main two-story library, while the left side has more space for reading and sitting. The third level of the library has two atriums with natural light that also differ with the dark oak interior of the rest of the building. The other large building in this section (and newest addition to the town) is the Opera House. I attempted to create a colorful yet classical and sophisticated atmosphere with this building. The ornate Opera House has three balconies and a large domed ceiling. This building also contains space for offices and even a dressing room hidden above the stage that can be accessed through the hidden passageways and tunnels.
There are also aspects of the town not mentioned in the description above, so please take the time to explore the city fully. Thanks!
