    The main reason why I voted for option B instead of A is because it reminded me modern provence style of living.

    One of the cafe near my home (Central Europe btw), called PS Café really brings these vibes to me. Yes, I agree.. there is a lot going on in the pictures. Little overkill with all that decorations but it's great for an inspiration.

    Another reason - herbs and flowers.

    When it comes to clothing and hairstyles in B.. I'm not really feeling it. It's like from the modern farm or something. I would rather save it for more outdoor/country themed pack.

    I'm not trying to sound basic but just look what people are wearing at Coachella. It's called boheamian style (but you already know that I guess). It's not that far from what you showed us. It's just better fitting.

    Type "boho outfit" to Google search and you'll get thousands of pics.

    Spiral stairs for smaller homes, maybe a sewing, quilting or other crafting skill to make our own clothes and curtains. More gardening options like greenhouses, more plants and food, herb drying rack, maybe smaller pots for growing herbs on a counter or window sill. Laundry with a clothes line for drying clothes, maybe a way to wash clothes by hand.

    Think "living off the grid"... smaller appliances (for tiny living spaces), bookshelves that double as stairs, ladders for climbing to the loft, wood stoves, foundations that looks like trailer beds, solar panels, water collection bins, composting toilets, etc.

    Yes and more yes to smaller appliances for smaller homes and living off grid! Smaller book cases, desks, closets, dressers.

    Please oh please can you find a way to fit in a big comfy couch with throw pillows and maybe even a throw blanket to hang on the end with lots of neutral color options. All the sofas we have look so uncomfortable. I would love this pack to include comfortable living items. Also, spiral and L-shaped stairs.

    CAS Mode

    Female

    Hair- I echo the ideas of flower crowns, kerchiefs, ribbons, and loose braids. I imagine loose curls and face-framing pieces from hair that's tousled after working or gardening all day. Simple, sweet, lovely styles, such as:

    5bf2db280e33fe8ba0cd438819851208.jpg

    I love this simple side-ponytail with a ribbon. I'd love to see it for all ages, hanging over the shoulder so we can see the ponytail coming down front

    6c7c6fa40ce85b605fef075e165f3aac.jpg

    I also really love the idea of a braided headband with loose curls for all ages

    Additionally, some longer hairstyles for girls and toddlers, especially some with loose curls.

    Clothing-

    Adults:

    I think of simple but sweet, with eyelet, lace, a few ruffles, chambray, etc.
    Some ideas:

    One final thought: not a CAS mode item, but one for buy mode: dolls and toys that look hand-made

    Again, long post, so I'll do another later with ideas for men.

    Wicker and rustic wood. I'm not one to ask for elaborate specifics.

    Also I must mention I much adored everything in the images put forward. I really liked the wall herbs?

    Long hair styles, CAS options for toddlers, an oven looks like the AGA's above, new small plants to put everywhere, a comfy regular couch/loveseat (like the hipster couch in the game but with more color options) and lots of clutter.
    Those would be awesome!
  • lunapball32lunapball32 Posts: 98 Member
    I love so many of these ideas.

    I would love to see mix and match pots with plants. Empty pots with different plant options that we can fill.
    I would also love more hanging type pots, like with macrame, wall plants, and small ones for shelves. And generally more items that fit on shelves.
    Basically - clutter. :p


    Mason jars, and general kitsch.

    Hello sims team :) can I just say as a general complaint that forum doesn't seem to me as the best way of collecting what is really wanted by the community, at least I think it would be better if people used spoiler tags for pictures and describe what part of the picture contains an item they would like to see in the game?

    I love the idea of eco country pack although laundry seems a bit random addition to the theme, so I guess as far as the game play objects go we can't realistically expect more that a washer, a dryer and a clothing line, an ironing desk would be a new addition and maybe some new overlays on the sims to show that clothes really are dirty, the mechanics of having clothes piles appear every time a sim changes clothes just seem as more annoying to me, I don't wash all of my clothes every time I change... but enough about that lets go to the possible items that could appear;

    I will go through each category and paste some pictures I think would go with the theme and also be something I would love to see in the game;

    male cas;
    some proper man buns Hot-Man-Bun-Hairstyles-For-Guys-10.jpg
    and some distressed denim stuff, like jackets and shirts maybe overalls mendenim.png?w=610&h=457

    female cas;
    we could definatelly get some flowery embroiled jeans 19648e8d09c8518a093ee869f993f617.jpg

    they can be cut like boyfriend jeans or maybe shorts or like overalls 2016-Autumn-Ripped-font-b-Boyfriend-b-font-Jeans-For-Women-Flower-Printed-High-Waist-Plus.jpg
    but mainly I would love some proper high waisted loose jeans (that would also look nice on elders on swatches with more muted colors!) and maybe some loose crop tops bx6841-l.jpgoicynk-i.jpg is this stuff pretty trendy? yes, but does it also somewhat fists the theme? also yes, another thing could be smock dresses pzz95967_ms.jpg
    dzz93648_ms.jpg
    and I agree with the poster above that we need some messy curly hair it could be really long or maybe some bob length but it has to be curly and in a messy way, flowers would be nice but they would limit the way the hair can be used, so I am only for the flowers if they come as an accessory

    children cas;
    I don't think I have to include pictures here but there has to be some new TODDLER clothes, like short overalls, flowery summer dresses, plaid shirts and also the messy curly hair that will match the adults like a shorter version, and the same hair for older kids of course

    furniture;
    I think here I just love everything in the concept art just more of it, I like the idea of having a lot of mudroom clutter d7e2a4db9505701190dce5848fd4d1bf.jpg
    and pantry clutter 17ab8bd9b357eb2dea6f86b032ea5973.jpg

    a comfy sofa and a fluffy carpet, perhaps a wall murals like were the ones from the vampire pack, but maybe more in the line of flowery ones

    89dd821228e64d80baba52060195acf6.jpg
    also I would love some colourful bouquets made with wild flowers
    ab8b58bd89cf0987adece46ef8192b62.jpg
    and as the last thing grass roofs, because what is more eco than that country-eco-homes-modern-houses-3-580x369.jpg

    ok I can't be asked to wait to become a full member so someone will have to fix the broken links, ahh I made this post hours ago and I tried desperately to became a full member but now I just can't be bothered :/

    Edit; I've just became a full member, now that was some hard work :smiley:

    I believe these are all Florence Welch's house hahaha Something about the theme, the eco living, the contact with nature in a cosy way, threw me right back to her "Lungs" phase. There is indeed a lot of pre-raphaelite references and some pagan vibes in it, but fashion is always revisiting itself, and some stuff like the hairs, the flow of the clothers, I can see as a trend right now.

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GF6kBNLTvaU

    Also, I would thank a lot if some industrialized items like metal and plastic could be avoided the most possible, unless in a reused/recycled form or with a eco purpose, since there is nothing more aseptic and far from nature than that. Glass is fine, though, it looks awesome in contact with natural elements.

    Eco-friendly implies renewable energy, and renewable resources.
    Reclaimed wood is great for furniture, and as accent-walls.
    I agree we need more stuff to do on the wood-crafting bench; could we at least have swatches of new wood-tones added to what we can already carve? It wouldn't require added functionality, just more textures to choose from.

    Assorted currently in-game trash cans recolored with the recycling symbol on them, maybe symbols of aluminum cans and plastic bottles. When we use those trash cans instead the option in the bubble could be "recycle" instead of "throw away". Then we could pretend that we are recycling paper plates instead of trashing them.

    Neutral, muted, and warm earth-tone palettes (sp?) for CAS and Build/Buy. No neons!

    Those daisy crowns are adorable, maybe a braided hair with flowers woven in too?

    Cleaning clutter with eco-safe logos, like the RL cleaner Simple Green.

    Mason jars and soup cans that sit on the counter or a window shelf for harvestable, usable kitchen herbs (maybe only grows 3 rather than 10?). Mint would be a nice addition.

    A simple, much less elaborate looking birdseed thing like from Backyard Stuff. Softer, earthier colors, made from repurposed parts. Maybe remeshed to look like a birdhouse & feeder?
    Maybe a few new bird skins, and a stray squirrel to ninja your seeds? 8D ?

    And the number one way to get me to buy a new pack: New Harvestables, like Orange trees and Plum trees! Come on guys, Plum trees! How do we not have these yet?! ;D

    *** In a patch near the time when this SP comes out, would you guys consider a few fixes that require the appropriate harvestables for a bunch of recipes missing them? Like strawberries for strawberry cake and strawberry ice cream, lemons for lemon ice cream, roses for rose ice cream (you get the idea) ...carrots for carrot cake?
    - And an extra option in the cooking menu to choose "Ingredients Required". It would make gardening that much more relevant, and our cooking more challenging if we wish it.
