AthenaCapulet's Creations Thread

Hello, hi and welcome!

After years of playing all the installments in the Sims series, and months of stalking this forum, I thought it was about time for me to post my own creations. I've mostly built suburban houses and Mediterranean ones, but as of late I've tackled the theme that is modern. I hope you like what you see.

My origin name is the same as my name here :smile:

    Silver Escape (click to come to the Gallery)

    Modern villa with lots of windows and light. And I actually did the interior on this house, something I usually don't do!
    Two bedrooms and two baths. Small kitchen with everything you need. Table for three in the compact dining area. Bathtub in the bathroom upstairs. Gender neutral kids room with turquoise as accent color.

    Please tell me what you think!

    Cotton Falls (Click to come to the Gallery)

    I've never made modern houses before and now I've made three over 24h. I think I need to get out more. Aaaanyways. Let me present my latest house, Cotton Falls. Only did the exterior this time cause I'm inpatient and want to make another house eheheheeh. Two more modern ones to go and I've filled one of the neighborhoods with just modern houses. I love when the houses look good together.

    Cider Drive (Click to come to the Gallery)

    One bedroom, one bath modern house. First modern house I built. Fully decorated. Spa on the lowest level, with sauna and place for yoga. Meditation spot in the garden. Suitable for couples, could be made into a house for friends too. I need a break from the modern houses now.

    Hi @athenacapulet, would you mind if I did a collab on the interior for your apple brook cove house? I tend to love traditional houses so that one looks fun to me.

    The furnishing of the interior of Apple Brook Cove home looks so very nice @LionessInMN :) Very nice design of the kitchen! The wall paneling looks nice, and the placement of the cabinets around the windows gives a nice look. The island bar stool counter looks great! The type of stools used is nice. Nice window dining area for sims to enjoy eating meals there with sunshine coming in through the windows. Very nice sofa and armchairs sitting area in the living room, for sims to rest there and chat. The green, brown and yellow colour scheme of the area looks nice. The brown patterned floor rug adds to the nice look of the room. The type of curtains look very nice there.The sunflowers look sunny on the coffee table. Sims will have fun playing chess on the chess table. Very nice bedrooms! The blue and pink colour scheme of the bedrooms looks very calming and pretty! The pictures look nice on the bedhead walls. The tissues and flowers are nice touches on the bedside tables. The cherry blossom plant is pretty for sims to see in the pink bedroom. Very nice fireplace sitting area in the family room. Sims will enjoy resting in the armchairs in front of the fire, enjoying sunlight coming in through the curtained windows.
    The furnishing of the home is very nice! :)

    Just dropped by to take a look. @athenacapulet , your modern builds are stunning. And the collaboration you did with @LionessInMN shows what great design talent you have in a wide range of styles. Thank you for sharing your creations with the community, and I'm sorry to hear that a trip to the ER was necessary. I hope things are better now.

    Thank you @rosemow and @StSciurus for your kind thoughts!

    I am finally home from the hospital, sadly I had to be admitted and sadly my state isn't any better. But now I can play sims at least!

    The interior is absolutely beautiful @LionessInMN . The whole decoration has a red thread through out, which I love. The kitchen is beautiful with the brown and green. I love how you managed to fit so much into it. The blueprint is brilliant, looks much like a real maxis build that you could find in TS2 (my favorite game maxis house wise). I would love to do another collab with you another time, I have a lot of houses in need of interior ahaha. Actually do you think you could just help me with the blueprints of a house of mine? I'd love to decorate it myself but I have no idea where to place the walls...

    Sorry about the hospital @athenacapulet. I definitely hope you are feeling better soon.

    I think one time I figured out that one square is roughly 3 ft by 3 ft (or 9 square feet) in real life, so if you are sizing a blueprint down to sim size you can use that as a rule of thumb. But yes, I would help if I can. If you want to do another collab, I would be happy to on a traditional type house. Modern houses sort of still blow my mind. Those are hard for me.
