Having Read "At Home" By Bill Bryson, I have always tried to recreate this Building in My mind. This video is great to bring some flesh to what Bryson is saying about the scale of this house. Just incredible, considering, Beckford was going to live in this Cathedral with just his wife.......well............with about 50 servants, but You get My meaning!!

Fantastic. I first read about Fonthill abbey in Bill Bryson's book "At Home". It's a real pity the building never survived, imagine how much of an attraction it would be nowadays.We'll never see the likes of again because this was during Britain's Gilded age, the age of the aristocracy. Even if you were the richest man in England, it'd be socially unacceptable to build yourself a house which had: 35ft doors, 50ft long dining table, 300ft long hallway, 280ft roof and 80ft long curtains!

I am decended from William Beckford. My parents changed our surname to be the same as his as I guess as they were proud of his achievements, but I heard some bad things about him. I don't really know much about him, other than he was an eccentric and he built some tower, but I dunno why my parents would name me/our family after him if those things were true. If anyone knows anything about his life, msg me.

ahh i havent used rhino since high school drafting. you should scale it down, i made big things but never off the grid, reminds me how much i hated how it would disappear when you changing view, rendered in penguin right?

@triplethreatvette he doesn't need to scale it down, just extend grid, but this badly reduces performance! infact as he is showing this i would recommend he disabled grid to improve motion. and follytowers, i would love to see this rendered in vray, it would look beautiful! great model, and get rendering!
