Seven Pines Lodge (1930s Floorplan)

Hello everyone. Hope you had a great holiday season.
I have been busy and finally had a chance to sit down and draw a map.

This is a nice, clean drawing style, and the map's fun too!
Could perhaps do with a scalebar, and I'm a little confused as to the layout, as the west wing seems to be accessed as a separate level only from halfway up the main Hall stairs, while the Conference Room there can be reached only through the Den, which also seems somewhat odd.
It feels slightly weird too that the more imposing accessway - grand semi-circular steps, external pillars - is at what seems to be the rear of the building, assuming the Hall to be the main entrance.
I'm going to be honest, I traced this while watching Ralph's tutorial on YouTube. I want to learn how to do floor plans.
The Conference room was labeled a bedroom, but based on the Urban legends of Devil's Hole, I thought it would be good for privacy for the type of business.
I assumed the pillars are supporting a 2nd level and the steps go over the doorway to the den. That's how it was on the image I used.
Sounds like a legit reason to me.
Just curious where the Withoutdrawing Room is???
Separate entrance for privacy makes sense.
I have done maps where I have discovered that I forgot to put in entrances to certain rooms. (My Sea Elves Outpost had three rooms with that problem!) Fortunately, the Color Key effect can solve that problem. If you look at the Outpost on the Atlas, you’d never know which rooms had forgotten doorways (until you turn off sheet effects, that is.)
I edited the stairs to hopefully make more sense.
I'm also looking at floor plans and doing the 2nd floor and the I'll do the Speakeasy in the basement.
Those smaller step lead to the Master Suite (private) and other private rooms for the more important guests that are looking for some privacy from the tourist.
Have you seen the Yellow Sign?
Still working on this.
I fixed the Misspelling of Withdrawing in the first map.
LOVE your compass!!! Nice, clean maps, @C.C. Charron
Well its done.
The symbol mixed with the compass is based off Pelgrane Press's "Yellow Sign" for The King in Yellow RPG.
Apparently they put it in the public domain, so I used it.
The game sits of my bookshelf next to The King in Yellow Book.
Have you tried putting the photo in the background with some transparency?
