Symbol House Blue Print

I've noticed on ebay in recent months that someone appears to be selling the blue prints to a house in the shape of the Love Symbol that alledgedly Prince commissioned but was never built. I've been dubious about whether this is actually genuine or not, but then today I was watching the Love 4 One Another film that I haven't seen for years (i've not been able to bring myself to start watching things again until rcently) and I noticed that when he's speaking to "Nikki" on the phone about being a Fanatic there is a model building in the shot behind him that looks very similar to blue prints. Can anyone clarify if that is in fact the same building or not as i'm curious? Apologies if this has been asked (and answered before) I did a search of the forums and nothing popped up. Thanks

Wow! Good eye. I just watched the clip with the model. I got the blueprints a few months ago. The model in the clip looks a lot like the blueprints.

^ Very good eye indeed.

The model seems to be the buildings shown in the Emancipation lyric book. With the prince shaped lake with a Pyramid in the circle.

Thanks for clarifying! I don't have the blueprints so it's difficult to compare, plus the model is only in shot for a few moments in the film but I just thought they had to be the same building! I'm quite pleased with myself for spotting it, can't believe no one else has before me! biggrin

Well spotted. I had heard the ebay plans were fake, but they do match up with the look of the model in the film and the Emancipation cover. I think you spotted what could have been!
