==About==
==About==
Caelon shall be a city loosely inspired by architecture of Early Byzantine, to try push a style which is not prevalent within the community. This will combine with oriental architecture for a region of the city, playing with the interaction of these cultures. The aim will be, as before, to create a hub for the community within an aesthetically pleasing and cohesive build, this time with an emphasis on verticality, making use of 1.18's extended world height.
Caelon is a Byzantine-inspired city, succeeding the sur4 City of [[Gaia]], created by the same group. As before, it aims to create a space which can facilitate community interaction, whilst also creating an aesthetically pleasing project in a unique style. ย 




Hence, the general layout of Caelon will be an island, with the use of white cliffs, and black-sand beaches, connected to the mainland via a long bridge; the island itself will stretch skywards, allowing for buildings to be placed at various heights. This will be terraformed from scratch, allowing for great control over the terrain.
The city imagines itself as consisting of byzantine-inspired architecture combining with elements and technology which might be associated with the steampunk, and the 20th century. The understanding of the "byzantine" architectural style is predominantlyย  taken from artistic impressions of Constantinople, which is modern-day Istanbul. A strong emphasis is placed on verticality, making use of custom terrain which stretches skywards, providing multiple interconnected vertically adjacent planes, onto which builds can perch.

Beneath these lie black-sanded beaches, and above lies a more standard grassy landscape.


== Management ==
Caelon's management inherits much of the structure and many of the members of Gaia. The council forms a central group which runs the city, within a larger senate, wherein are other members who support the council, but are generally less involved with the running of Caelon.

Caelon is a large city-build on the Survival 5 world of the Dogcraft Server.

About

Caelon is a Byzantine-inspired city, succeeding the sur4 City of Gaia, created by the same group. As before, it aims to create a space which can facilitate community interaction, whilst also creating an aesthetically pleasing project in a unique style.


The city imagines itself as consisting of byzantine-inspired architecture combining with elements and technology which might be associated with the steampunk, and the 20th century. The understanding of the "byzantine" architectural style is predominantly taken from artistic impressions of Constantinople, which is modern-day Istanbul. A strong emphasis is placed on verticality, making use of custom terrain which stretches skywards, providing multiple interconnected vertically adjacent planes, onto which builds can perch. The key features of the terraforming are white cliffs, partially inspired by those of Dover, making use of 1.18's introduction of calcite. Beneath these lie black-sanded beaches, and above lies a more standard grassy landscape.

Management

Caelon's management inherits much of the structure and many of the members of Gaia. The council forms a central group which runs the city, within a larger senate, wherein are other members who support the council, but are generally less involved with the running of Caelon.
