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. | 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.

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.
