We've almost unlocked the first stretch goal! As promised, I'm putting up a poll for the next stretch goal. The poll will be up for 48 hours. Once it's done, the 3 winning designs will become the new designs for the third stretch goal.
You can see the designs below! There's also a little introductory blurb for each design! Please note that the designs are NOT final at this stage and there may be adjustments to details and colors in the final version of the chosen designs.
A. Pueblo House (North America) Drawing from traditional Pueblo architecture, this house uses earthy reds and blues as its main palette. It has stood the test of time better than some of the other houses. The ghosts are particularly interested in visual arts.
B. Tudor Mansion (British Isles) Based on architecture from the medieval Tudor period in the British Isles, this house's palette consists of brick red and plaster white. The windows have a diamond pattern. The wattle and daub pattern uses the metal of the pin. The ghosts here are somehow all writers.
C. Kath Kuni Villa (Northern India) Inspired by the traditional Kath-Kuni construction style from northern India, the Kath Kuni Villa has a layered construction of wood and stone and a cantilevered top floor (adjusted to pin-able dimensions). The colors are warm, including gold and muted magenta. The ghosts are always excited to talk to living (and dead) visitors.
D. Colombian House (South America) Drawing from the architectural styles of northern Colombia, this house has a bright palette of yellow, blue, and green, with magenta as a possible addition as the design is finished. Despite a lack of blood relation, the ghosts treat each other -- and any visitors -- like family.
E. Art Nouveau Villa (Europe) Based on Parisian Art Nouveau style, this villa uses a combination of warm gold and cool teals as its color palette. Thanks to the fancy aesthetics of the house, the ghosts can come off a bit snooty at first, but they are genuinely fascinating company once you get over that hurdle.
F. Old Village House (Middle East) Modeled after the building and design philosophies of historic Middle East, this small house uses cool browns and indigo to evoke Islamic ornamentation. The house has stood through untold centuries of history, so some of the ghosts here can tell you tales of pivotal moments in history you won't find anywhere else.
The poll is now up and will close in 48 hours. Make sure to get your vote in before then!
If your favorite design doesn't end up in the top 3, fear not! We might be able to stretch into a fourth and final stretch goal before the campaign is over. If we do, I can pull runner-ups from this poll along with other sketches for a second poll.
