I was fortunate enough to work with the one, the only, @ourashenbride to have the most INCRECIBLE video made of my recent build! She was so attentive, responsive, and captured the space better than I ever could have imagined. If you'd like to check out her video editing options, please find her link here! 12/10, highly recommend!

The build has officially been re-opened, as well - if anyone is able to travel to Leviathan, please feel free to check out the home!

"Mid-century Muji"

Primal, Famfrit Goblet ward 14 plot 60

Oh it's me again. Stuck in a time when we got blinds and I just really miss window treatments, okay? We moved too far into open windows!! I'm sick and tired of curtains. Let me just have sunlight streaming through some blinds because that's the kind of therapy I need in housing.

I wanted to try and make modern art but it got out of hand when I decided to spend all the slots on windows. So I went full mid century modern, with a sunken living room and weird architecture, to distract from the fact that I'm really bad at making shapes on canvas.

After The Rain

It's me again! I wanted to make a little concept kitchen in a Gridanian style. I also wanted to see how many kitchen cabinets can I put into one kitchen. The answer is about 5!

I'm also bringing back aquarium style windows for my own enjoyment. You can't tell the intricacies behind the window, but I used 3 phasmascapes and folded them to overlap. Then I used a Brook tank trimming to get the special rocks and fallen logs and flowers, and then I added some trees. It's a lot and I'm chuffed about it, I gotta say.

Victorian Bathroom. Hello! It's me. I know I haven't been around much but I assure you I've just really been busy building a floor out of 200+ pieces of dishes and chairs.

Neutre moderne

My first design for Dawntrail! I'm bad at naming things. I made this concept just to show off the under cabinet lighting from the neon lights. Also I wanted to try and make a sofa and bring back a TV cabinet since we keep moving away from that format and I miss it.

Oh yeah -- a few years ago, Rjork gifted me pure white dye and I used all the dye on walls for my old shiplap house build and I had to Ship of Theseus it for the floor. You better believe I'm keeping pure white walls around and recycling them!

Paris Balcony Primal, Famfrit, Mist ward 7 plot 5 (Thank you to Ellie Net for letting me build!! I appreciate you.) Hello, friends! If you're aware of my game, you'll know that I've never dabbled with indoor/outdoor builds before. It's something I've always admired, and I'm always hype when my friends do it, but it just seemed well out of my comfort zone. Also, on a personal level, it's sometimes hard for me to suspend belief when building and being like "Yes, this is an open window to the ocean". I love it when someone else does it and I can look at it like YES, THAT IS THE SEA but when I do it?? It just looks like lines on a wall. It made no sense to me! BUT THIS TIME I WANTED TO CHALLENGE MYSELF!

I started out by building a massive exterior facade that you can't actually see all of it unless you physically go to the windows, but I figured I needed to go all out and build the whole thing. I built this in a large and it took almost 200 slots just for the fake building that you can barely see /cry And then the next issue was do I make this look modern or classic? A modern, white walled look wasn't exactly speaking to me. So instead, I opted for making my own wood-lined wallpaper and going heavy maximalist on the interior. If you've ever played Fable 3, it's giving me a lot of Fable 3 vibes!

My biggest inspirations for this build was Rjork, Momogyle, Div and Fragaria. Each build is so lovely, whether it was a full exterior courtyard or just a peek out into an alleyway. It really has sat in my brain for months and I wouldn't have been able to make this design without being able to visit their houses and figure out how it was done. Thank you for coming to my Ashen talk.

Am I ready to return from my long slumber?

I made this room just for the rug. Okay, so I did a little bit more than that. I wanted a cozy little witchy room to celebrate autumn. The rug has always been on my mind to make, and I decided to just try and mess with things. And since it's fall weather, it was important that I find trees to match the season and I was so lucky to find a beautiful tree for my window with lovely orange hues, and leaves fallen on the ground as well.

Lastly, I wanted a wreath of dead branches so I tried to make one over the fireplace. I'm trying my best. Happy Halloween!

New fit

[ourashenbride]

I made an attic in my house. I wanted to keep the theme of the exposed stone and wood while also adding some newer renovations to the house.
