The Grotto [mesh] from Trompe Loeil

Trompe Loeil is proud to present our first mesh prefab - The Grotto! A low-prim desert/beach curtained poolside getaway, designed exclusively for this month's Designer Challenge! Don't forget to check out Barnesworth Anubis' corresponding entry on display as well!

Trompe Loeil's Designer Challenge

Incorporating detailed stonework, a sundrenched patio area and a bathing pool in a style reminiscent of ancient stone palaces hidden in a desert oasis, this month's photo inspiration was a departure from Trompe Loeil's usual arboreal style, but a fantastic first project to design in mesh. The Grotto takes advantage of the low prim count conversion of mesh, resulting in detailed stacked pillars and fencing at a much lower land impact than a prim version.

The Grotto is an open-air build consisting of double staircases leading up to a raised, generously sized stone patio with inlaid water channels that guide the flowing fountain water from matching raised pitchers into a tiled bathing pool. Set back from the patio, a curtained double-height gazebo-style structure welcomes visitors with the glow from stained glass hanging lanterns. Decorate with your favorite rugs, lounging pillows, tables and animations for a decadent beachside retreat fit for royalty. Package also includes two sculpted palm trees from the Trompe Loeil Caparra Collection for easy extra landscaping.

Each curtain grouping can be set to one of 5 different colors on touch for your own unique color customization. Mod/Copy permissions and carefully designed mesh objects make it easy to add in your own additional landscaping using the pillars and fencing.

Land Impact: 193 prims (not including optional palm trees) 
Mod/Copy/No Transfer 
Price: $L575

The Boho Loft Skybox from Trompe Loeil - SUYS intro special price!

The Boho Loft Skybox is our first hyperreal, fully baked prefab. Experience amazing realism in a studio-style, whitewashed brick and wood loft that creates the perfect backdrop for your bohemian-style funky or romantic furniture.




Open windows on three sides look out onto the painted, animated swirling skydome - which is scripted for easy access and privacy. The effect this incredibly real interior makes against the impressionist, handdrawn style of the skydome must be seen in person to be appreciated!



This low-prim build works beautifully as a private studio, hangout area or small storefront. Modify/Copy permissions make it extremely flexible - the neutral off-white interior tints beautifully, and looks great in either the full-bright or non-full-bright versions, both included, so you pick the style that works best for your furniture collection.


INTRODUCTORY SALE THIS WEEKEND ONLY ~ $L150!

As an introductory special, as a part of the always-fantastic Spruce Up Your Space monthly sale-a-thon, The Boho Loft Skybox is being introduced at a remarkable price of $L150 for the weekend of March 26-27 only!
