Title: What image inspires you to build your dreamhouse in the Star Wars galaxy? Post by: Master Rel on August 26, 2012, 06:24:28 PM Either a real world image or a piece of artwork...something that says...this...this is where I would be happy or secure or whatever you look for in a place...build your perfect retirement home, a temple, an academy, whatever...but make it a good one.
***** How about the Hanging Temple of Xuankong Si combined with the Hallelujah Mountains of Pandora?

Epic beauty. http://ts2.mm.bing.net/images/thumbnail.aspx?q=5056710474072917&id=fe5eec721a8fa2bce41b62691b69a2b6 (http://ts2.mm.bing.net/images/thumbnail.aspx?q=5056710474072917&id=fe5eec721a8fa2bce41b62691b69a2b6)

Post by: Jev Moldara on August 26, 2012, 07:07:37 PM I would build a large home that combines the aesthetics and defensibility of a medieval style castle with the aesthetics of Italian villas and ancient Greek architecture. It would be defensible and self-sufficient, yet beautiful and open, with every convenience.
As to location, I'm guessing I would build it on an overgrown, yet rocky terrain in a tropical paradise.

Title: Re: What image inspires you to build your dreamhouse in the Star Wars galaxy? Post by: Master Rel on August 26, 2012, 10:53:39 PM How about over the whole of the upper falls just before the break...on a bunch of columns, using the water flow for power, etc.
A bit elfy I know but how about the way Rivendell hangs over the water? (http://www.writerscafe.org/uploads/stories/34213200-1236218616.jpg) Rivendell which looks all Jedi anyway!
