Cookies58's Island is the project, and home of Cookies58_ on the Survival 4 world of the Dogcraft Server. It's a modern/contemporary styled base modeled after traditional American downtown architecture, located on an island.
History
The base is located about 11 thousand blocks west of Camp Beagle spawn. It was initially discovered on the launch day of the Beagle world. Originally, the base was going to sport a medieval theme, with harbors and a fishing village. Unfortunately, this idea wasn't leading anywhere, which led Cookies58_ to settle with the more modern design. Only a couple buildings and farms had been constructed on the surface of the island, with most of the infrastructure underground. This made the transition pretty seamless. After Dogcraft updated to version 1.16, construction on the new and improved island began.
About
To ensure a consistent quality for the buildings, most of the builds were previously designed in a creative test world and copied to survival. One of the main goals of the base was to cultivate a realistic atmosphere, with lots of detail packed into every corner. One of the main ways this is achieved is through detailed interiors. Most buildings boast a full interior, with only a few empty rooms throughout the city. There are several Easter eggs scattered throughout the interiors, having references to other server members and pop culture.
Inspiration
Initial inspiration came from Keralis1's Hermitcraft S7 base, which is a large city with many sky scrapers. Keralis' base is more large scale, but both bases share a similar style. The inspiration for specific buildings came mainly from official and custom LEGO Modular buildings.
Utility
Most of the functional aspects of the island are found beneath the surface. The storage room is located centrally accessible through a slime block drop. Surrounding the storage room is a creeper farm, several small scale farms and an iron farm. The only farm to remain on the surface is a sheep farm, which was initially in the Wool Corp skyscraper, but was sense moved to the Office Building.
