Currently Junceda, Tangie, JodiRebby, Amonovas, Nilxis and me are building a Mexico-themed world with an urban area based on Coyoacan (a district of Mexico D.F.) adjoining a nearby market town, and a coastal area based on Campeche. Ancient ruins based on Olmec, Mayan, Teotihuacano, and Aztec culture will be added also.
The landscape will be green and tropical.

If it's just too small for you to build on it, then we can instead use Frida Kahlo's house as an art museum
This is the link to download the beta so you guys can build
Angular patterns like this are very traditional in woven goods
I guess there's more we can do with wicker than we might think!
Blue and white pottery
These papier mache figurines are called Alebrijes. I have my room decorated with some and I adore them!
For the terra cotta tiles in the houses I've finished so far, I've used the plastics section so that the floor reflects light. That way, it looks like they've been kiln-fired.
Tile accents
I am at your orders I´ll do my best, it is your world and I am so glad to be part of it, I know you can speak spanish so I say "donde hay patrón no manda marinero"* thankyou very much for sharing your Project
*(where there is a captain, sailors don´t give orders)
BTW I love the name

Plus I was thinking of the Mexican folk song "La Paloma Negra"

I like the tile work and the other pics too.
With Island Paradise, we can have functioning, usable rowboats. Definitely we could create fisherman Sims. Like in the picture. :-)
Hmmm .... I kinda think the Casa Azul should be a museum, because that is what it is in real life. C: *swoons when imagining tourists visiting Casa Azul in the game, just as in the real world :XD:*
Love the name by the way. :thumbup:
I think I'm going to post preliminary pics here so changes can be made. Feedback is always welcome! Hopefully I got the interpretation right.

I was thinking that maybe we could make recolors of of her portraits and put them in her Casa Azul! That'd add a big degree of authenticity
Edit: Great idea to make recolors of her portraits, I did the same with Dalí's house in my world Empordà and that added a very nice touch to the house
I placed this lot "The Wallart market" made by ZooU Students Team, it is a gorgeouse work with plenty of creations of wall art that can be used once installed for building purpposes but sadly all the wall art has not exported with CAW,

How did you get your portraits with Empordá world?

I'm gonna hold off on the offer for the temple right now. The reason is because I wanna do a bit more work on what I have right now, and see if I can do a collaboration with xsorcier and aminovas and Reachsims.
For the design of the church, I'd like for it to either be based (loosely) on the Cathedral at the zocalo, or one of the more colorful ones in Coyoacan.
Technically there's no worship in this game, so I'll be classifying it as a library just like I did in Al Medina. In that case it would be nice for it to have an Annex with bookshelves for reading. A little confession booth, an altar, pews, prayer candles, and maybe a wedding arch might be nice touches.
Hopefully this can be done in that space, but if there isn't enough room, then I have added a lot next to it that you can use. (The lot furthest from the coast)
Thank you so much for helping on this world!
I made a recolor of one of the base game's paintings following the typical recolor method so it was a permenent change only for this world I'm not sure if Zach wants to to it this way.
I'm drawing floor plans for the market as we speak!
Recolor to your heart's content!
Just no CC objects though.
I have every EP minus seasons, future, and island paradise. I do plan on eventually getting IP and Seasons for this world though.
