Ancient Egyptian Homes - Nobleman's Villa

This is a project I worked on for Forge Of Empires, it is the newest of our outposts where you go to Egypt. I had a lot of fun researching how Egyptian buildings look like and understanding the culture a bit more. Many thanks to my team members Vincent Ganachaud (3D), Frank Hartenhoff (2D) and Manuel Vormwald (2D). Check out Manuels contributions here, he painted the amazing background: https://www.artstation.com/artwork/N5WYr5

In contrast with elite tombs and temples, residences in ancient Egypt were built of mud brick, and the palace was no exception. Although the king was the most important person and the residence would have been a locus of much activity, tombs and temples were built of stone and meant to last for eternity, while palaces were not designed with such longevity in mind.
