Site is in Davos at 48, 188
Took less than a day for this build, and it was fun to come up with a believeable cliffside design... It seems to be for sale, with the build attached as well. |

Nice!
Site is in Davos at 48, 188 ...and it was fun to come up with a believeable cliffside design... That's an ineresting anomoly with Second Life builds. Techncally, we don't need support piers, brackets, braces or posts for our buildings (or parts of buildings), yet buildings often seem more complete, credible and/or astethetically pleasing when they're used. Perhaps our mental notion of a "building" includes the parts that hold it up. _____________________

I agree Olympia. I'm not sure what it is, but my house simply wouldn't be the same if the multiple decks were simply hovering there. I'm not sure if it is our innate sense of gravity that tells us that buildings just need to have something under them.

Very cool Foolish, you seem to have a talent for this stuff!
Interesting Discussion too! I'm not sure if it is our innate sense of gravity that tells us that buildings just need to have something under them. I agree, gravity. Prims are able to "float" so that we can freely make something like say a bird in flight and overall not to restric our reativity. But Second Life definatly has gravity, and that definatly plays a roll in it. Things dont look right when they are just sitting in the middle of the air. Probably because we spend most of our time in a world where supports are nessisary. Also support systems can be quite interesting and really compliment the structure and its placement. I think they are nicely used in this structure, as it makes the extreme landscape more obvious.  _____________________
