274th day of 2016.
I have completed the streetscape joining the City gate to the centre. It is a pretty symmetry layout along this central path. It is the main path, so it is planned and design to fit as many frontiers as possible.
Following that simple logic, the closer to the centre, the more expensive the land area become. The units would tend to be small on area, but they could be multiple storeys.
273rd day of 2016.
Putting the palace aside, continue on to the Infinem City. Filling up the last gap of the central zone, it makes everything look so much developed.
Now I have to extent below following the centre road to the Market Square and then to the City gate. I figure to complete the areas along this man axis of City Gate towards the palace.
272nd day of 2016.
The Private floor of the palace. I am thinking of splitting the portions here so to create some sort of towers. The height of the towers should be the squared ends lowest, follow by the cente front and the centre back, where it would connect directly above the monarch's chambers.
I am still thinking whether or not to allow the passage for the front portion to be public or secret... It will largely depend on the functions of the rooms.
271st day of 2016.
Moving up one floor, I am imagining the Auditorium and Grand Hall to have double volume. I also need to find a spot for the double volume grand library too.
I attempt a secret passage over the Grand Hall double volume... which I think is quite feasible. I just need to get the height relationship right.
270th day of 2016.
It looks like a repeat, but there is quite a few changes over the palace plans, especially the back part. I can't help to adjust the scale and proportion after reading many other famous palaces has way more rooms than I originally has.
Added one line of rooms in front of Grand Hall entrance and even more rooms at the back. surrounding an additional courtyard.
I have roughly calculated, not including the halls and Grand Hall and auditorium... I have roughly 90 rooms in this floor. I could easily split out more space though as I get into more detail.
Lastly... I notice that I forget to insert the rooms' functions. The problem with too many rooms.
269th day of 2016.
Officially the last week is Infinem City week. It is still growing. But I think next week, I really should start on the detail of the palace
268th day of 2016.
It came to a point that... I need to compare the picture side by side to spot my progress on the City.
