15. Royal Sandstone Sun-Palace
Inspired by desert architecture adapted for ocean life, the Royal Sandstone Sun-Palace utilizes smooth, cut, and chiseled sandstone paired with gold block accents and lapis lazuli roofs. Standing on thick, decorative sandstone pillars above a warm coral shelf, this stilthouse shines brilliantly under the bright midday sun. Grand arches and open colonnades define the exterior, allowing air to flow freely through the structure.
The interior features opulent lapis-and-sandstone mosaic floors, silk-curtained beds (using colored banners), and internal fountains fed by mountain spring water brought via aqueducts. A grand staircase leads down directly into a private enclosed ocean pool, where safe swimming among tropical fish is guaranteed by submerged iron bars.
