    Azulejo's Dorne Repository

    ADR 2: Flooring options for Dornish buildings boy it took a long time for another one of this Floors are often an overlooked part of a project, a mistake I make too. It is very easy to focus your creative effort on the walls and realize that you have not thought anything for the floor, so you...

    Gulltown Redo Discussion Megathread

    Also let's not forget Gulltown and the surrounding area are allowed to use green and blue daub exclusively, as well as north yellow and mud red. I like the colorful timberframing too though.

    [Inspiration] Stormlands. "Pueblos negros", Guadalajara

    Guadalajara is a province in the centre of Spain, mountanious, dry and with a harsh continental climate, for the most part. Here there's a couple of places known as a whole as the Pueblos Negros, "Black Villages". They're made out of a local variety of slate, used in both walls and roofs of...

    Terra Project - Field of Fire

    Even if you fancy it you could go for bricks on the lesser areas of the septry. There are clay quarrys (I think that's the correct term) alongside the river near King's Landing and Stoney Sept.

    Flea Bottom Planning and General Style Discussion

    I suggest looking the Suburra/Subura for inspo. Super dense and so prone to fires that a wall was built between it and the Forii. Also, it's sandwiched between two hills, sound familiar?

    The North - Terra Update

    I don't know how helpful this could be, but this year central and eastern Spain experienced very heavy snowfall. This amazing image was taken at the peak of the snowstorm. You can see how on the flatter regions the transition is very gradual, like a blanket that fades away, but on the more...

    Ideas for Essos

    Honestly I think almost every city uses Constantinople as a reference since it's one of the most iconic examples of a ancient, huge city in the Middle Ages. Stylewise I think it's a bit too westerny for Volantis, Oldtown is also inspired by it and they would have a similar vibe being two cities...

    Wine production

    The critically-acclaimed series "Vineyards growing where they shouldn't be" presents its third season, brought to you by Azulejo: Just like in the Douro/Duero and in the rivers in Germany, south facing slopes are used to grow vineyards in wetter and cooler regions in Northern Spain. In Asturias...

    A Stormlands Overhaul

    I'm not as aware as you seem to be about Stormlands' canon, but unless it goes against it a cool adition would be to implement more "rounded" mountains than the rest of Westeros, like the ones in Scotland or the Appalachians (which I think are covered in forest up until their peaks for the most...

    Sunspear/Dorne Redo Discussion Megathread

    Eastern Dorne inspo As pointed by Margaery, East Dorne is mostly dry, stony soil ill-suited for agriculture. Some regions I think could be useful for this are Los Monegros and Las Bardenas Reales in Northeastern Spain, Desierto de Tabernas in Southeastern Spain, South Morocco, Northern Iraq...

    Sunspear/Dorne Redo Discussion Megathread

    When the Greenblood is implemented it've be nice to design a centralized water system. Areas where water is precious tend to manage it very carefully. In Murcia muslims developed a intricate spiderweb of canals and ditches that distributed it to thousands of orchards and plots. At Cotrayarada...

    The Arbor: Feedback, Suggestions & Testing

    Maybe I'm a bit too late but the cliffside houses of Ryamsport reminded me a lot to the Casas Colgantes (hanging houses) of Cuenca. Alongside Bonifacio, the main inspo for the town, it could be helpful for creating those dramatic façades right by the cliff. Usefull also for seeing how the...

    Block Change Request: Cultural and Climate Variants for Clotheslines

    Reds and yellows (thus oranges too) and blues were easily obtainable from many sources, so their use was quite spread, alongside the natural colours of the textiles used. Undergaments, worn to catch sweat and keep exterior clothing clean, were washed more often and usually weren't dyed, as the...

    Approved Project Application: House Cobb by InvertedWinger and JJLyric

    A construction technique very similar to cob is tapial, used extensively throughout the Iberian Peninsula and North Africa. It would be interesting to have two sub-regions that are very different from each other but use the same building material, one in Dorne and the other in more humid...
