Most structures in Urgaia are carved from different types of stone; sandstone, limestone, whatever happens to be in the area. Some are even comprised of rocks that don't exist in the real world, and it's said that some wealthy individuals in the capital have homes made of gems.

They tend to have ventilation systems built into them, as well as lots of shade inside.

Most buildings in Isendia are crafted from stone. In its early days, straw & fur were used as insulation. Once Origin magic became more prevalent again, machines are developed able to use Breeze to generate cool air, a magi-tech equivalent to modern A/C.

The nomadic peoples that sometimes cross the desert live in tents, most of them having a leather covering (beast hides are sometimes used, depending on their resistance to the elements). Those tents come in varied shapes depending on their use.

the architecture of Iram Ubar (City of the Pillars) is largely ancient-to-medieval Arabian. With lofty gold-plated pillars, windows, domes & minerets adorned in gems & precious stones. Made of gold, silver, & stone 🧵

#TheDragonblood: Kumat is famous for the enormous Pyramids of Ḫawyafwiy, Ḫaʿfriʿuw and Mankuʾawriʿuw, and the Great Sphinx (whose original name is lost to time in our world, so I will have to invent something for mine).

3: In the Nation of Avenad in Karnassia (co-created with @jmaxwell-author.bsky.social), the cities of the Avendrals are all built under the mountains, some of them in larger caverns, others just built into the interwoven tunnel system of caves beneath the mountains.

Kashra is built low and close together, with thick stone walls, narrow streets, shaded courtyards, and structures patched or expanded whenever the community needs more space.

Homes are designed to hold onto the desert’s cooler air during the day and release stored warmth...

Day 3. Desert town architecture.

No architecture other than natural rock formations and weathered markers for the dead.

Structures similar to a yurt are the traditional habitations for plainsmen. Portability is key to following the hipparion herds on migration. Hides form the outside shell. Sapling wood from the nearby mountains form the framework. A central fire for heat. 🧵1/4

As I mentioned, Belso is a destination for architecture, with the result that it has the most varied and eclectic look of anywhere in MK. There's some adobe, but the structures are stone or brick. Otherwise, there isn't A style. Climate control is

Shoot! I already discussed yesterday!
Since Camp D is a very experimental culture and there is a variety of deserts, there’s almost every kind of desert architecture you can dream of, from mud huts with synthetic fiber roofs, to pueblo neighborhoods stacked against…

You know what I have done is I have mixed up the Awesome Characters tag and the #OctoberWorldbuilders tag and this is why you shouldn't post things before 8 am, folks.

#OctoberWorldbuilders 3. While wood, bamboo, and leaves are staples across most of the kingdom, Alämhra adopts adobe and rammed earth as its most common materials, followed by stone. For the latter, the region has a greenish stone that can add a creative and colourful touch 🧵

Living out in the sands is for exiles and the stupid.

ParDafi carve out structures within the bordering granite caves. The stone prevents the worst of the heat during the day and holds enough to keep comfortable at night. 🧵

Permanent structures are almost exclusively made of cob or mudbrick if there's enough available fuel for kilns. Because of this, they tend not to be very tall and are often only single-family dwellings. They're warmed by a central hearth and cooled by built-in windcatchers.

In the world of Unsaved, groups living in the Shimmery are nomadic for the most part, using tents to shelter against the elements.

A few are semi-nomadic, moving between more permanent dwellings as seasons change. These structures are built using local stone and salvage.
