Unveiling Shirogane Splendour: A Journey Through My Exquisite Abode

 

Greetings, fellow adventurers o/

This month may have been marked by a slower pace in terms of achievements, but the crescendo of excitement echoes within the walls of my new haven in the coveted Shirogane wards. Let me take you on a captivating tour through the carefully crafted spaces that now define my in-game sanctuary.

 

 

Outside: A Tranquil Oasis

Nestled against a backdrop of swaying bamboo and the gentle melody of a nearby waterfall, my plot exudes serenity. Positioned conveniently next to a bustling market board, the exterior is a visual feast adorned with the Sukiya design. This choice not only imbues the yard with an outdoor spa and seating area but also elegantly sidesteps the need for excessive housing items. Crafting a cohesive theme for the exterior challenged my design prowess, resulting in a harmonious blend of aesthetics.

To the right I have created a relaxing tropical camp set up using items from the newly released variant dungeon Aloalo Island.

To the left I used a more relaxing garden theme while also showing off my hard earned Eureka Orthos trophy.

  

First Floor: The Cozy Café Haven

Stepping inside, the first floor unfolds into a comfy café, inviting guests to unwind in its warm ambiance. Indoor water features and aquariums add a touch of tranquillity, inspired by designs curated from fellow adventurers. Drawing inspiration from various sources, I melded these elements into a space that resonates with my unique vision.

This is the kitchen and seating area. The kitchen was created by making a false floor over the stairwell to allow for extra space.

To the other side is the feature wall, surrounded by verdant walls and aquariums with a pond full of koi at the bottom.

And what good is a café without a greeter to welcome you inside.

 

 

Upstairs: The Literary Retreat

Ascend to the second floor, and you'll find a library that spans the entire room—a personal triumph crafted with minimal external references. The room exudes comfort, inviting me to lose myself in the literary treasures that line its shelves. This space, born from the depths of imagination, stands testament to the joy of creating something uniquely my own.

Quiet, sectioned off study area with a water feature to create white noise to help you focus.

A comfy place to sit and read while watching some beautiful fish.

A balcony that lets you see out over the whole area, while also allowing you to read the higher shelves.

 

 

Downstairs: The Piano Lounge Extravaganza

Recently transformed from a lackluster spa room into a vibrant piano lounge with a charming small bar, the downstairs area now pulses with energy. This reimagining was spurred by a desire for a space that resonates with my passions, adding a touch of elegance to my virtual abode.

As you go down the stairs you are met by a fountain and pictures of the scions, before heading to the seating.

The seating area has an option of an elegant table and chairs or leather sofas, both backed by a gorgeous aquarium.

And don't forget the bartender who will keep your drinks refreshed with her selection of spirits and liquors. 

Venture further, and you'll uncover a secret back room—a clandestine vault where the spoils of my in-game adventures.

 And don't forget the coveted "gilnomicon" that orchestrates my wealth.

 

 

Other Updates: Tales of Triumph

In addition to my architectural endeavors, this month marked the triumphant completion of the Endwalker hunt trains. Eager for more challenges, I've embarked on the quest for the elusive S ranks in both Shadowbringers and Endwalker. 

As an adventurer seeking varied experiences, I delved into the whimsical world of the Fall Guys crossover event, claiming the coveted "Queen Bean" title as a testament to my prowess.

Thank you for joining me on this journey through pixels and passion, where every corner of my Shirogane sanctuary is a canvas waiting to tell a tale. Until next month, when new adventures unfold, fellow adventurers!
