Some people say that an Architect's best work is done on napkins...
When I do sketches like this, I usually like to design in a Victorian-ish design with my own fantasy elements added. In a way, my favorite designs turn out to be a Scandinavian-Victorian Steampunk conglomeration. (See gallery 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 10, 11 & 12 ). Although modern designs don't escape my scope either. (Gallery 5, 8, 9 & 10).
