Jack Tomalin´s West Park - What would the exterior look like?

Hi there,

I have bought almost anything relating to "West Park" a long while ago, and somhow I like the architecture. But what always bugged me is, that there is no exterior for it and I can understand why. It seems that jack Tomalin could not decide, what kind of windows "West Park" would have. Just looking on all the promo renders alone give someone a good pictures that the building would have a good mix of rectangular windows with larger tiling, rectangualr windows with smaller tiling, tight rectangualr windows, large rectangular windows, windows with arching on top and so on. I just wonder if somoen actualy could create an exterior that catches all this designs in one building or a building complex, that would fit an old asylum, clinic or school setting? I wonder if Jack Tomalin have a picture himself abut it.

    I have no idea, but I am all excited, that someone else is asking this question.
    Yes, what would it look like? I am quite obsessed with consistency. I want a working floorplan and a matching exterior PLUS more rooms.
    I am so curious, what more dark corners would look like.

    It has as I remember being asked a number of times. Jack has said that the individual parts are not really made for being put together.

    So I think it will take a significant time to put together an exterior that fits, as one first have to piece together parts and probably make smaller segment, in order to fit it all, and then can start on the exterior.

    I've always imagined a brick building with mostly yellow bricks, possibly with red brick detailing around the front windows and a red string between stories. At the external corners it would have interlocking stucco 'blocks' three bricks high, rusticated, to look like limestone corner detailing. The walls would be topped by Stucco capping, with mansard slate rooves going up steeply to flat leaded areas around the corridor roof lights. The straight entrance steps would have a low wall sweeping grandly to the front double doors, which would feel slightly cramped given the width of the bottom step. The low wall would be capped in Stucco, with galvanized iron pipe rail leaded into ragged holes chipped from the stucco. Around the back, every would be built from yellow bricks, flaking sky blue timber and concrete ramps and steps to mean sized doors. Externally there would be many, many sewer and waste pipes. Half the small windows in the back would be from opaqued Muranese pattern glass, in the larger, post 1930's size. That's how I imagine it. Regards, Richard.
