*I never really got to reveal my final version for the Wonders of the World Contest, but I thought that I might as well finish what I had started. Congrats to all of the winners of the Contest!

Pharos Backstory
The Lighthouse of Alexandria, otherwise known as Pharos, was begun by Ptolemy in the Third Century BC and completed by his son, Ptolemy Philadelphos, on the island of Pharos in Alexandria, Egypt. It was to serve as the island's landmark, and later, its lighthouse. Pharos was a small island just off the coast of Egypt, near the city of Alexandria. The island was linked to the mainland by a man-made bridge. Together, the island of Pharos and the bridge formed half of Alexandria’s harbour. The lighthouse was badly damaged by an earthquake in 956, then again in 1303 and 1323.

My Version
The design of this lighthouse has been interpreted in several different ways, and my design concentrates on aesthetics only and incorporates several window designs and a spinning grav lift serving as a revolving lighthouse light on top. I hope you all enjoy!
