Since I moved the Photo Studio to Iyna's FC Room (Couerl, Goblet, W11, P4, Rm18), I revamped Dark's apartment using the base Iyna had and adjusting it.

Since taking these I moved the incense burner to the little Sil'dihn table and put a message book on the fireplace opposite the orchestrion.

Couerl, Mist, Ward 24, Topmast, Room 12. If Dark Autumn's friend, don't forget you can just use the friend list teleport to pop right to the building if on the world.

“Our Safe Space”

A personal Apartment.

Mateus - Mists - The Topmast Apartments - Wing 2 - W14 Room #38

-

4 hours build to completion, lighting on three with 100/100 items.

Logical things aside... i’ve been dissociating hard lately. Its creeping on into the winter months and with mental health being something ever present... decorating is one of the few places I find solace.

I scrapped my Romance and Rainy Days build to construct and in-character apartment for my OC Vesper Peng. It’s fully functional for her in character use although I wish I could have had at least 10-20 more item slots to finish properly detailing... but isn’t that always the case? 

The layout itself is open concept with a lifted kitchen area and lofted bedroom that can oversee the entire apartment. Its modern-esque and minimalistic in terms of detail, keeping key features for that touch of home. I really wish I could have added more plants and something by the fireplace so it doesn’t look so devastatingly empty. But, we’ll deal with it! 

In-character, Vesper is the owner of an Allagan Discotek so when she’s not at The Relic she’s here, studying aetherology, magical properties, elements and other nonsense as well as balancing the books between hours of operation and other financial things. Second to that she also is a Ground Circuit, or primary Leader, for Parallel Circuit - their FC. She’s a busy, busy lady and dragging away from her paperwork is about as complicated as the Motherbit who fronts everything. Who’s the Motherbit? Don’t worry about it. We’re not a bunch of viera jumping into holes, are we? Aside from that, she loves to bake goods at the late hours of the night and the shower fits perfectly to wash off those invisible grains of sand that stick to one after a trip to the beach.

Like I said, everything has its purpose and serves it well. I call it “Our Safe Space” because its meant to be shared with others... her in-game partners. Ehheh. Regardless, its a nice getaway. A home. As it should be.

Mara got an apartment in the Mist! Look forward to (and excuse) and gradual spam of furnishing.

Messed around with Dark’s simple photo studio apartment today, when I realized I’ve been making some shots far harder on myself than necessary.

Coeurl’s Mist, Ward 24, Topmast Room 12.

Been awhile since I showed off Aeryn’s “Rising Stones” room, in Coeurl’s Mist Subdivison Ward 1, Topmast Wing 2, Room 28. And since I made some additions with the new 5.3 furniture...

This nerd obviously needed more books, so replaced 3 Wooden Steps with one new Wooden Staircase Bookshelf. Needed some things for her weaving, to go next to her alchemy station. The Stage Curtain can be pulled across for privacy when using the washroom (did have to fiddle with its height placement a bit so it didn’t interfere with stair use). Finishing the Crystalline Mean quests gives us nice dyeable lamps. Somewhere there’s a lil’ froggy automaton model.

My favorite thing is still the various rugs to combat cold stone floor problems, and how colorful it makes everything.

Apartment in Topmasts, Mists on Mateus. It’s no longer there.

The idea was sparked off the request of a room with lots of green and lots of windows. They wanted an arboretum which they did receive later, but I fell in love with this niche little spot anyways! 

Designs aren’t always perfect, and this is one clear example of trial and error when capturing someone’s vision!

Avoiding writing and running instances by mucking around with Aeryn’s “Rising Stones Room.” Since finishing the Crystalline Mean quests means you can get versions of the lighting the artisans make (the gathering ones are outdoor furniture), and they’re dyeable! I also did a little crafting, and made an alchemy workstation for my nerd. The new lamps I placed in her reading loft and bedroom.

Also finally took a good look at the Manor Dressing Table item description:

Seaside Cabin. This Mists Apartment was designed to look like ‘down below’ a small boat, housing all amenities. 

This is by far one of the hardest designs i’ve had to do, and not because of the item count. The shape was a challenge within its own right. It was beautiful to explore in character, but no longer exists to do so.
