Description
The greenhouse itself seems to have been around for a long time. Its construction looks intricate and made to stand the test of time as can be seen by the faded patches of paint on the metal frame. It is elegant as it is functional. A few vines have snaked their way from the ground up along the frame of the greenhouse and gives it an added aged effect. A soft light eminates from the inside and through the windows observers get a taste at the spectacle with in.
Exterior
The Cyroselle Gardens are located in a less populated area of North Atlanta. When you first pull up to the area all you see is an 8ft high wooden fence with what seems to be a greenhouse just beyond that. The parking area is just a gravel area just beyond the fence. As you start away from the parking area there will be an old stone path leading up to a gate in the fence. Continuing though the gate you wil notice the stone path leads through a yard. The area surrounding the greenhouse is nothing spectacular mainly just a lawn with the occasional tree and shrubs. The path ends at a set of stairs leads up to glass french doors.
While the exterior is nothing special, once you have gone through the doors the eye immediately begins to focus on the greenhouse itself. It looks to have been around for quite some time and the lights illuminating from the inside allow a small glimpse of the beauty held inside. Everything about the exterior seems to have been around for awhile although it seems as though only recently that the exterior has been maintained in the slightest. The trees and shrubs have been newly trimmed and the lawn freshly cut. It does seem as though from the exterior that there has been great care put into the tending of the yard which surrounds the greenhouse.
Interior
After entering the greenhouse the first thing one notices if the shear amount of plant life in the garden. The next thing one might notice is a calm feeling washing over them. Truly being in this greenhouse makes one feel composed and at ease. The design and choice of plants gives the garden a more Victorian feel. The warm lighting adds to the warm weather inside the greenhouse. The warmth is not stifling but aides visitors in the feeling of comfort and serenity.
A stone path begins at the front doors and branches off in two directions taking either path will lead them around the gardens and eventually to the center most part of the greenhouse. At the center is a paved clearing with which to gather at. In the center of the clearing is a small circular cement platform most likely meant for people to speak from and/or perform. Surrounding the platform are chairs and couches of all types all facing inward to the platform. Should one need a private place to talk a service shed in one corner of the greenhouse has been converted to two offices.
OOC Notes
- The grounds are watched over by Keisha's ghoul Jace Remington.
Transformation for the Blue Lagoon Party
A rain curtain has been added at the front door that parts as soon as the door opens to allow people in without getting wet. Inside the dull plain lights have been changed and a soft blue light has immersed the Garden. Miniature waterfalls and fountains have been added through the foliage. The clearing area has been extended and some of the plants that were there have been relocated to add room to the center area. There is white sand covering the gathering area and the seating has been replaced with cabana chairs. Herd members move throughout the gardens in bikinis for the girls and board shorts for the men. There are two large 12 person hot tubs to one side and in the center is a kiddie pool full of jello with various herd members wrestling in it. There is a bar with Lacrima set up as well as more "illicit" refreshments available for guests. Every 15 minutes there is a clap of thunder and waters spouts shoot from various parts of the garden arcing over the gathering area before a light warm rain descends. The center area has an array of lights in various colors to add to the mood. The steel drum band consists of some of the members of Keisha's herd and when not playing a set it is interspersed with hip hop music from a small DJ booth. The area where the band and DJ set up is, has been protected from the the onslaught of water.
