Greetings Gondolidrim! I'd like to (finally) introduce the House of the Fountain, or "House Fountain" in shorthand. We exist within a large and crucial section of Minas Minas, and it is imperative that we get building towards some level of completion as soon as possible.

Duties and Design

Being in the center of the Outer City, we have much work to do. First of all, the House symbolically guards the fountain that is located in the center of our lands. The current design that is there is the planar size that we require, but is nothing close to what we want. What we need is something ascending high into the sky, as it should be the highest structure of our House, if not of the entire outer city. In addition, we are charged with guarding the main port of Minas Minas, the Obsidian Gate. We also need to come up with a design for that. It needs to soar above the outer walls (y=95-100 IIRC) and look absolutely breathtaking. The only issue is the angle at which it must be built, but we certainly have enough man- and brain-power to get the job done.

As for a color palette, I don't want to be too restrictive, but I think everything should have a soft-colored but grand and imposing feel (think the redesign of Paris under Napoleon III). Lapis and blue wool are recommended. If you wanna go the extra mile, try designing a Minecraft version of the House's seal

Current Tasks

We need to finish the roads that clone and some others have put so much work into, especially within our own district. This will serve to facilitate the making of plots of land (some of which are already outlined in sand) as well as in helping to form a general vision of what the area is going to look like. Talk to clone if you want to help but are not sure where to start or what materials to use.

Otherwise, start designing your own homes on single player or something. I'd love to see them and work in how they would fit into the scheme of the district. Thanks to everyone for their hard work, and good luck in your endeavors! Contact me if you need any help or need a plot to set up shop at.
