Here is my latest finished house (24th june 2012). You'll find it on the leaderboards (small homes) under "Orange et Or" or in Halas, Valor Homestead, Whilhelmina, Storms Server
It's horrific, ghastly, and the epithom of bad taste. That being said, it was a random project I started last october when I saw the yellow and orange tiles in Night of the Deads. I wondered what it would look like to tile a house in orange and yellow, so I tried it. It's my only halas house and, as usual, I didn't want to totally hide the artwork, so I tried to retain the wooden boards.I thought about tiling the stone pillar with gold coin tiles but went against it in the end.
I then tried to get everything that I knew to be golden or orangish and tried to make it feel like a house. I had some station cash bought quite some time ago to get rid off before quiting so I also got a bunch of gold marble items.
It's hard on the eyes and I wouldn't live there for sure.
On for the visit!
As you enter, you'll find yourself in front of a table set on a pedestal.
To your left is a small kitchen with a storage room under the ramp up.
To your right is a small sitting area wher you can look at the snowflakes falling outside while enjoying the warm and sunny feeling of the house.
A ramp leads upwards to the bedroom.
The massive bed is close to a fire, 'cause one wouldn't want to get cold in there (if it's even possible).
Behind the screens you'll find a nice bath and everything to clad yourself in garish colours.
Here we are. I'm including the layout file below, feel free to use it if you want to tile a Halas house, finding the right numbers for the ramp wasn't really easy.
I hope you liked it as much as I loathe the colours of the place! *snickers*
