Version: 1.19.2 - 1.21.3 (Constructed in version 1.20.1)
Resource Pack: Patrix 32x32 (Standalone, no CIT or custom heads)
Mods: None (Plugins WorldEdit & Optifine)
Shader: Complimentary Unbound
Architectural Style: Classical, Renaissance, Medieval, Victorian-Restoration
Format: Schematic - Flat World
Astrological Sign: ♒︎
Complexity: Very detailed
Corresponding Builds: #1 - #2 - #3 - #4 - #5
Perspective:
Building in the classical style has always been one of my favorite ambitions. Although this is a commission among many requests, I tend to prioritize this form of architecture above the usual stream of suggestions; simply because of Its unique expression that reflects a time when architect and mason valued the intricacies of the classical ideals that conceived the most remarkable formulations of human innovation.
Be it unfortunate or inconsequential to some, like many of our beautiful medieval cathedrals, this building modality might become a sporadic sight in a future brimming with modular buildings aiming to convey its influence by reason of human progress that inevitably births new ideas and contemporary aspirations.
Regardless, I think we can still appreciate the depth of our structural direction frequenting contemporary and brutalist infrastructure brushed upon the landscapes of that most beautiful mother unyieldingly feeding her toiling children. Above all, the walls that ensure our protection have always been a part of our lives. Be it the creaking sound of retired wood, the crumbling ruins that echoes the memories of bygone ages, or the comfort of a calm melody dancing on the beat of a crackling fireplace; architecture have, and always will be, an intrinsic part of the human soul; a place called home...
Jardin à la Française:
Although the primary idea was to build a Palace-style residence that would house a single family, I figured a domicile with multiple rooms for different players would be a far more ambitious project.
Surprisingly, I never intended to construct large gardens that would envelope the build aside from a fountain that were vaguely outlined to signify its probability. However, that quickly changed when I scoured through the pages of one of my most expensive books, "The Story Of Gardening". Chronicled by the inquisitive, the book vibes a range of cultural gardening choices worth marveling, expressly sufficient to draw motivation for its inclusion.
Adding plant life to virtually all building designs is a practical choice that might be considered the norm by the majority of builders. However, choosing expansive gardens relative to a build of this particular size can somewhat ruin the coherency between the construct and it complementary addition of organics, consequently adding too much distance between the gate and the structure's entrance. To fix this, I had to downscale the gardens to a reasonable magnitude without sacrificing its complexity.
Adding disproportionately large patterns felt too overwhelming and distant in this case, so the balance between simplicity and sophistication had to be checked to maintain equilibrium between the size of the construct and nature's embrace.
That being said, I think the build would have suffered a great deal without factoring in mother nature's nuances, mutually agreed upon by many who thought it nonsensical to exclude a form of beauty that so often glorifies the industry of men; thus included.
Architecture and palette:
If anything, I tried all variations of quartz externally, but it just didn't feel appealing enough to apply as a conclusive choice of palette. I've mentioned this before; Patrix has a very unique and beautiful layer on their variations of sandstone. If I were to choose my favorite among many, this would probably be one of my preferred choices. Mixing between cut, chiseled and smooth sandstone, the visual dynamic between the three worked, so I maintained its consistency throughout the exterior.
Architecturally, the build facilitates a mixture of the familiar renaissance and classical ideals, hinting at Roman influence expressed in certain areas of the construct. Choosing sandstone to somewhat bruise and age the build seemed fitting for such a style, so its selection, though admittedly by accident, was a sound choice to apply to such an interpretation.
As an addition to the main feature and its surrounding gardens influenced by the French, I was spontaneously beckoned by the urge to add one of my older mansions to the southern-end of the build with a level of refinement that would qualify it as a desirable neighbor with additional embellishments.
Interiors:
Bearing in mind that the southern mansion has her intestines in order, the main construct will exclusively be expressed in terms of interiors via YT and gallery. With a total of 32 bedrooms (46 collectively), 12 restrooms (16 collectively), and a collage of other living spaces (Fireplace, storage rooms, libraries, lounges), all of her interiors displays a unique theme that will accommodate a list of players with their own personal space and comfort.
It should also be noted that I omitted the additional mansion's interiors to lessen the time spend in the walkthrough, excluding some features of the main construct for personal exploration and discovery.
The only thing I could have done better in this area of the build would have been to incorporate actual beds instead of block variations. I tried a mixture of the two, but were left dissatisfied by the outcome, and maintained my stance on its current appearance. I did however mend this issue by including chests with beds in a majority of the rooms to serve its purpose beyond display. All and all, I think the internal environment has a unique touch that brings everything together in a well-rounded experience that not only accommodates, but also inspire.
Side plate information:
I'll eventually give the build her rightful place in my own survival setting. For now I'll have to prepare myself for a ton of personal changes come New Year. Aiming to become a much greater version of myself will obviously be a painful process, but beyond all my failures, I've never given up, so I'll commit to such a drive despite my shortcomings.
Hope you guys have an awesome New Year filled with love and many blessings! Peace for now! \(^_^)/

Lowered the membership tier for this particular build from ♓︎ to ♒︎ to make the construct affordable for all of my members. Thanks a ton for those who stick around and support my efforts. You are noticed and greatly appreciated! (^_^)7
