Most of TPF takes place in the capital city of Serenity, but since much of Escavia is for me the countryside, I figured that that was a pretty good place to start for conceptualizing the civilized (human) world of Rimer. (I'm also very inspired by classical farm life.) I think from here I can work up to ideas for the city, as well as for other places on the world map. Rimer's an interesting place because I can't base its buildings off of just one place or point in history. I can't just rip ideas from Amsterdam like we did in uni. Rimer's different, because it's in the future, yet it's not high tech, so I must take ideas from our modern day for the architecture. I can't do weird sci-fi stuff like in Star Wars. For me, Rimer's buildings are a combination of now, the 1800 to early 1900s and London. Expect it to look old, grungy and yet flavoured with the present. That's what I'm trying to convey in all of the human stuff. I hope it works.
