    Has anyone seen my jaw? I think I dropped it while viewing your gorgeous Tudor house. ;) I am especially in awe of your kitchen and bathroom. A real pleasure to witness such inspired creativity! Thank you. :)

    Solitude 1br. 1ba.
    Lot Size: 20x15
    Cost: $33,466
    Build N Share Challenge


    Gallery Link

    I actually finished this build before my last entry because it had a Due Date and I had to get it in on time. However, I didn't want to take too much time away from my last request, so I put adding this one in here, on the back burner. :blush:

    The Challenge rules called for a post modern home, designed like a studio apartment on the interior. It was being built for a male ballet dancer, Rich Marriner, who was looking for a place to rest and relax, with all the conveniences. He also wanted a nicely landscaped yard and an area to do yoga and meditate. All this for Under 35K AND the lot price had to be included. I also created the sim for this challenge, something I don't usually do. I will include a picture of him with a link to his outfits after the home pictures.

    Solitude is a very nice home! :) Very nice design of the exterior of the home! The roofing looks so very great! The colours and the stone and wood texture of the exterior looks very nice together . The cactus and other plants look nice placed in the garden beds on the edges of the home. Very nice hot tub nook! Sims will enjoy resting in the tub. The meditation and yoga patio is a very restful place for sims to enjoy quietly meditating on the stool or doing yoga on the mat. The water ball fountain and the water window are nice for sims to see when doing the activities there,Very nice layout of the interior of the home! The open plan living, dining and kitchen areas looks nice. Very nice tv and fireplace sitting area! The sofas look very nice how they are placed there, and the table look nice angled on the corner . Sims will enjoy resting on the sofas watching tv and enjoy looking out through the windows at the outdoors views. The candles look pretty on the coffee table. The kitchen area is very nice! The island sink and bar stool counter is great! Sims will enjoy sitting on the stools there eating a meal with sunlight coming in through the windows. The brick texture of the kitchen wall and the placement of the kitchen cabinets around the windows and fridge looks very nice. The master bedroom looks very calming. The wall lights look nice placed above the dresser. The brown colour scheme of the interior of the home looks very nice.
    Rich Marriner is very nice!
    It is a very nice home! :)

    Cath, I pause to take a breath, and you're putting out even more wonderful creations! Love 'em all. Excellent work on the modern. It may not be your preferred style, but you rock it when you do it. :) Your Tearose Starter is so pretty and ridiculously good for that price! Westwynde Manor is simply beautiful and perfectly appointed throughout, with so many thoughtful, detailed touches. Kudos for all the great work!

    Solitude is gorgeous, Cath! I love the colors, the wonderful interiors, everything! And your screenshot made me want to build in Oasis Springs again, long time since I did that! :blush:
  • WrathofCathWrathofCath Posts: 4,419 Member
    @Cassee, Thank you! It's so hard to try to stay on a budget, isn't it? Your "Simply Me" turned out Fabulous! :blush:

    @BryonyRae, Thanks so much, Bry! I appreciate All your lovely compliments, but especially on the modern. I really Love them when I see some of the creativity on the gallery, but I do have trouble trying to come up with ideas for them. It's always a nice surprise when I build one that people actually like, lol! :p

    @yanti68, Thank you, Yanti! And thanks for adding it to your faves too! :blush:

    @masajo, Thank you for your very lovely comments, Masajo! :)

    @RyeCris16, Thank you very much for all your wonderful comments, Rye! I'm so happy to hear you really liked Solitude! And Now I know your favorite color, lol :p I have to tell you, it wasn't easy trying to stay to just 100 tiles with no wall being more than 10 squares. I thought I was going to tear my hair out in the beginning, haha! Thank you for the good wishes in the challenge too. :smile:

    Thank you also for the lovely comments on Roseberry Cottage, Rye! As a matter of fact, I am going to add a post for it as soon as I finish thanking all my lovely friends, who stop in to visit. I really appreciate each of you! :blush:<3

    Roseberry Cottage 2br.1ba.
    Lot size: 20x30
    Cost: $140,226
    No CC


    Gallery Link

    I saw the inspiration pic for this home and thought it would be Perfect for Valentine's Day. At first I built the main part of home on the diagonal and the little addition was straight but when I saw how it was going to look on the gallery pic, I decided to rebuild it with the little addition being on the diagonal instead and the main house on the straight. It just didn't look right from the angle the gallery camera, was showing it.

    I wanted to give this home a romantic feel, so there are lots of flowers, winding pathways and a lovely swim-able pond. There are also a couple of little nooks to relax in, surrounded by gardens. The interior is very feminine with pink and white being the main color scheme.

    Anyway, here she is:

    @follyfoot, thank you for the lovely comments! Like you, I find moderns more difficult to build, so it's especially nice to hear when one works out okay. :blush:

    @Cassee, thank you for the awesome comments! Gotta have pink when it comes to Valentine's day, lol :p Nice to hear they worked well together, especially with our limited colors and textures. :blush:

    @romagi1, thank you! I consider that high praise. Your cottages are always Amazing! Thanks for stopping in, it's lovely to see you! :blush:

    @yanti68, thank you so much Yanti! I had a lot of fun building that one. :blush:
