Jacaranda Trees

As you may have figured purple is one of my favorite colors so it was just a matter of time before I started making purple trees. *laughs*

Introducing the KX Jacaranda Tree. These are in bloom all across Southern California this time of year so here a little taste of CA sunshine for you. :)

Just a update on the shop and sims.

Hello Serenite!

Just a little post on whats happening on the sims and what to look for over summer.

Well the most obvious change, I tore down the old KX shop which just wasn’t working well and built an all new one. While it doesn’t disappear into the land as much as the old one did it is a lot more functional space. It’s now more of an indoor outdoor space, with the garden areas as more of a focal point to bring more focus to the landscaping products. The build itself is a lodge so it is now reflective of the log homes I sell. The relaxed style furniture also works better in it and the more airy space is easer to get around in.

Parts of the old shop’s build will probably be turning up around the port area sometime this summer so that folks can still use parts of that structure for RP and Photography proposes.

The building that was housing Robins ‘Yummy Skins’ was taken down but don’t fret her skins are sill here, they are now inside the Practical Magic shop on the upper floor.


The less obvious change is Annwn will be converting to a homestead sim this month, it was just too expensive to keep it running as a pure recreation area as full sized sim with no retail support.

I intend to keep the feel of a lot of the areas but things may be shifting around a bit to better use the space on fewer prims. Mostly noticeably I will be expanding the waterways so as to make it feel less empty with fewer prims. The Cave, the Beach, the Falls, and the Grove are all elements I will want to maintain, they just may end up shifting to new locations.

One element I do want to try and add to Annwn is an art gallery, but a gallery in the style of my art show last year, where nature and art are mixed together, a nature walk where the art is discovered amongst the land. Prims willing that will happen sometime this summer.

Update for Spring 2009

Update for Spring 2009

Well the last of the snow has finally melted away, lush green again the dominate shade rolling across the land. New changes are again underway across the sims.

The KX tree collection already having outgrown its new home needs more room to spread its roots, I’m going to be spending my time re-envisioning the retail areas of the sim to make them easier to navigate as well as in hope to recapturing some of that precious waterfront for more relaxing pursuits.

Annwn most likely will be scaling back to an open space sim, with SLs changing in pricing and keeping the retail areas to limited amounts keeping it as a full sim is just not viable option any more. I will be try and incorporate some of its favorite relaxing spots back into the grounds Serenity.

Enjoy the spring!

KX Designs Update, Fall Winter 2008

KX Designs Gets a Total Remodel!

KX Designs Rear View

The Main store has been in long need for a remodel, the first and most drastic of the changes taking place last night, as the old structure came down replaced with an all new, more substantial build. There’s is still a lot of tweaking to be done but the core of the structure is in place. The main goal of the remodel was to show the product in a more cozy and homelike setting as well as provide proper display areas for the KX Trees and Fine Art products that the old shop was unable to handle.

The retail areas are more finished and organized now...
-Seasonal, Landscaping, Prefabs and Home Furnishings are on the bottom floor.
-Bedroom Furniture and Window Treatments on the upper floors.
-Trees and Landscaping Sculpts are in the back hall and display Garden.

All the KX Trees now have both an easy to shop from purchase point in the back hall, as well as full display garden in the back to see them all fully rezed if needed.

The Prefab homes purchase points are in the back corner on the main floor but they are also still available for viewing full size, just look for the green crystal teleporters and they will whisk you up to them.

I also now have a few of my SL landscape ‘paintings’ for sale. Look for more KX Fine Art works to be released soon.

Due to popular request I will be bringing out the KX Christmas products earlier this year. Look for KX Christmas trees and Décor starting to arrive this weekend!
