The Definition of Classic: Spruce Up Your Second Life Space With a Blast from the Past

Janine "Iris Ophelia" Hawkins' ongoing review of gaming and virtual world style

Right now Second Life blogs and Flickr streams are quickly becoming a flurry of greco-roman designs thanks to Collabor88, which opened its doors last night. You can now check out the final version of the dress by Maylee Oh that I shared earlier this week, but there's more than togas and tiaras on offer. Apple Fall's gorgeous greek furniture designs, pictured above, are a perfect example. 

This set is loaded with detail and while items like the frame lean quite hard into the theme, others like the lamp and bowl could work in almost any room. Considering how damn good it all looks in Apple Fall's promotional shots, I can wait to see what Second Life interior designers and photographers (like recent docu-machinima subject Editorial Clarity) will do when they get their hands on it. 

You can visit Collabor88 in-world [SLURL], browse the catalogue of what's available this month online, or check out Apple Fall's Flickr for more awe-inspiring interiors.

I was there earlier today, but the Sim performance wasn't so hot, but that's normal with the amount of avatars teleporting in and out. I just parked my avatar, derendered everyone (In firestorm I just pull up nearby, select all the names and temporary derender them) dammed around and shopped.
