#marble house

Long time no post from myself. I made several attempts of buildings, but actually never bern satisfied enough to finish anything.

Till this weekend - I started another try on Marble House in Newport (currently obsessed with the second season of „Gilded Age“) and from what I can say now, I really like it.

So I can present you at least a bit of it by now. Exterior, hall and dining room are finished. The golden ball room just needs more furnishing and details

"But oh, it was clear why it was called the Sky Room. The walls and ceilings were painted in a blushing pink in one corner, a deep blue in the other, and between them the colors commingled and brightened into clouds, stars, whirls of night wind"

The Gothic Room at Marble House is totally the place where you pore over archaic spellbooks and invoke dark curses to sink your opponents’ yachts. That is definitely what happened here in the America’s Cup days and the guidebook told me so.

I took these pictures at marble house when I was in Rhode Island a few weeks ago because it’s exactly how I pictured the Hawthorne Villa in Lunathion for ATOFAF. The stag on the ceiling in the dining room is straight out of the fic!

These aren’t just two random tables in the basement of Marble House (even though I thought they were until the docent pointed them out!), they were both used by Harold Vanderbilt and built to his own designs. The rectangular one is gimbaled for stability on a yacht and the triangular one is for playing cards.

(Given that he paid for the house’s conversion to a museum and so much of the stuff in the basement is his… you could say he really was an adult storing his stuff in his mom’s basement!)
