OK for the light materials and big windows, but with the straight lines and sharp edges it looks more like German Bauhaus and Dutch Stijl architecture of the beginning of 20th century, which were strongly influenced by Frank Lloyd Wright. But also very "new age" a century ago

I totally agree!! And your Frank Lloyd Wright is absolutely amazing. I was actually going to suggest this for some kind of challenge in case someone out there had made a really cool Eiffel Tower replica, or the Great Wall or something and wanted to show it off, but I didn't really know how to articulate the idea. This is perfect! Here's my real world reference. One of the most amazing places on Earth. I swear you can believe in magic when you're here.

ÐxhealerHey, didn't see it but your reference is also great! I think it's possible to make it look more like the real place (definitely has to be magic!) without the benches and with woods around instead of the Skinner sisters

And oh, you're definitely right!! I agree there's probably a way to make it look way better, it just took up a lot of space so I'm waiting til I have all the land purchased I'll update the post one day when it's prettier in the meantime I wanted to make it a somewhat multi-purpose homage. The Skinner Sisters do like to ruin the atmosphere, though! Hahaha
