Those items are available for the moment at my workshop on Kurimco Island. Please don't expect perfection (they are priced correspondingly) and give me feed back so that I can enhance them. You'll find dollarbies to thank you for your visit :)

Visiting this shrine, I found a little japanese shop building, like those next to the Tori, given for free... I also had a little free japanese wood bench, rocks, lanterns etc at House of Curious... might interest those who are interested in japanese style building...

Lost gardens of Apollo

I went to the lost gardens of Apollo last night. This is a great place and I haven't finished to explore it...

What if I fall in this water ?

Some parts of these architectures make me think of Schuiten and Peeters "Cities of the fantastic"... I enjoy their work very much btw so here's a link:

Brusel

Peeters Schuiten

All this reminded me I once wanted to be an architect... I should maybe have my own land on SL and start building something... I'll need advice about that...

I think I know who to ask...

Building (or so)

nobody@vox.com(Kuri) — Sat, 13 Oct 2007 04:32:57 +0200

Well, I wanted to build something as I recently learned that there were places where to build in SL.

My first attemps in pure creation are... well... first attempts :) Better not show...

Usually you build things in a "sandbox" place but I discovered, by chance, a whole island where you can build ! Well, this gave me the idea of putting together a house and a worshop and a shop (I wish I could do that in RL). And I am rather satisfied by the result. Several people stopped by and told me this was an unusual style in SL and that they like it. Here it is...

The shop seen from the workshop, house in the left background.

The difficult part in using prefab is selection. You easily get huge lots of freebies and only let's say half of them are valuable and for someone with very precise tastes like mine... well, this is pretty difficult to find something at all ! But I really like these little modern warehouses of concrete with a large window at the rear and a wood structure in the front. They have a little japanese something, haven't they ? I wonder if the designer got inspired by "tori" portals to build the wood structure...

The house, surrounded by the sea on two sides !

I like the house too. For its colors (do I have to confess that I like orange ?) and mix of materials. I haven't done anything inside (yet) but there's a good potential. The bedroom with its white screens on the windows is perfect as a photo studio. I took the new pics for my profile in there.

The japanese garden...

Someone had the very good idea to release this free japanese garden. How cute ! I instantly installed it before the great window. This make the "beach" side of the house very stylish... Take a look by yourself :)

OMG, I ripped my stockings !

I guess I now have to learn how people organise real estate on SL if I want to keep this longer... but, this is already very fun doing this for a couple of hours !...
