IGN: Kles266
My project is: Riverbed Mall
Description: Riverbed mall "its here baby" is a 16 shop 8x8 2 wing mall with 7 fountians soon to be many shops and a nice Rose garden with a bridge and river.
Some details: i spent over 3400R on this project in total it has taken me a week and over 60 stacks of wood were used over 100 glowstone and over 200 roses and other flowers.
To get to my project: ./town spawn riverbed then follow the huge bridge i built to the mall

Uniqueness: 3
Beauty: 2
Execution: 5
Scale: 3

From the outside, it looks more like a misshaped plank
and lacks any exterior decoration apart from the rose garden.

as for a whole, its primary wood, and lacks any creative shape, as i said, it reminds of a misshaped plank.

for the interior a better job could have been done there too, as it currently reminds me of a luxurious stables.

the general idea of a mall is a good one, but this simply lacks that little extra to boost uniqueness and beauty

kenn, i was told to use different patterns and not make it cubey by people who wanted me to apply for architect or apprentice. there isnt much interior decoration becouse there is only 1 shop so far and people have not bought any to sell there items and change it up a bit. so that may be a reason for that

still, when you submit a build, you shouldnt be dependant on having others set up shop, to make it look nicer, feel free to ask one of the others for a second opinion, but my score stands

Kles come to me with concerns regarding the above rating by Ken, I feel Ken may have been just a little on the low side with the scores, but I can kinda see his point with his rating.

My rating is as follows:

Uniqueness: 5
Beauty: 3
Execution: 5
Scale: 5

Total: 18

This is enough for Apprentice!

My increase in scores is justifiable for the fact that Kles has obviously put effort into this and I feel Kens scores were on the low side. My pointer to kles is that he has to work on the detail, I agree there is a lot of wood used in this build and that some of it should be changed up for other materials if this is going to be re applied for architect later on. I'd also suggest working more on the gardens surrounding the building and maybe adding some windows.

Uniqueness: 5
The shape I like as a mall it was planned out well and with room for expansions.
(I spoke with Kles in game when the building process of this was taking place.
They said it would allow them to add more floors if needed)

Beauty: 4
Most people when using wood will chose one type, I really love how they used
almost every kinda wood available to them and made it blend in nicely with simple.
yet eye appealing patterns. I think to raise this pt you need to add some color.
Maybe playing around with some carpets, paintings will really make certain places
stand out more!


Execution: 5

Scale: 4
only reason y I didn't give it a higher pt on scale is, it's listed as a mall. I just expect
a mall to be multi-leveled with more of a grand entrance. What I would really love to
see is how it looks multi-leveled even if you are worried about lack of people to open
shops in it have some fun with it and think of the things in a mall like a food court, a
Arcade just simple add on's like this even if they arn't functional would really make it
pop more!

My personal total on it: 18
