Go for it ZapKid, I'd like to see your result.

Thank you! I'm going to start sometime soon, it is a really cool looking house   :D

Hey guys I'm taking an extended hiatus... again. I'm out of ideas to build houses and I don't have as much fun designing homes like I used to; it feels more like a chore. So that's where I'll be, I will probably be back sometime. :P

I accidently didn't save the file but I still had the shell of the house before any landscaping and work on the windows. I made few changes to the outside and I've completed the kitchen/living area. The bedroom and bathroom are next.




I want this house to have a real, 'home' feel to it.

I've completed the last part of the house and am ready to upload. Still open to any suggestions as I probably won't upload until tomorrow.

i don't think there is anything wrong with this Gogo. The colours work very well and the layout is very well done.

It's looking great gogo ! my suggestion would be to change the tiling a bit, even if the color sheme works great, it's not blending very well, a bigger size tile would work better in my opinion :)

Do you mean the floor tiles or the wall tiles?

walltiles, floor tiles pattern looks good, you should have used a simple carpet and used the same pattern on it, will look cleaner :) hope I'm not annoying you with those remarks :)

My upcoming project, this will be an apartment complex, there will be 3 fully furnished houses inside, (one for bachelor and another for family and the third one will be for a vampire) and by moving the markers, you will be able to choose which house you want to live in. There will be a small backyard for fun and gardening and the underground garage.  (Big thanks goes to chuckles_82 for inspiring me)and sims will be able to access the floors using stair case, so stuck elevators? not a probleme, I might also realese a base game only version, since all items I have been using so far can be replaced easily, and the markers came with basegame Big thanks goes to chuckles_82 for inspiring me :)

EDIT: here, I uploaded it to a normal picture host, it was 2 am when I put the post, was too tired even to preview, sorry all  :-[

Yay, Vampire. Keep in mind though, not all vampires like darkness and gothic stuff. Some just want to be "normal".  ::)

Kiko: Try right clicking the picture and choosing "copy image url."  The facebook url doesn't work.

Speaking of which, in the mean time peeps, if you right click the broken image, and choose "copy image url," then post that url into the address bar you can see the image.

And I must say: wow!  That's pretty darn spectacular Kiko.


Oh, sweet irony, deliver me from coincidence.

Not so much a full build, but something I was happy with just the same. I've been playing around with roofs for the last couple of days and sometime I just look at real roofs and try to copy them. I quite like this one for a community lot. It would probably look much better on a foundation, but as I said, I was really just playing with the roof.

No, it's actually a full wall. The bottom roof was just pulled up to just under the windows.
