The main floor features four distinct main rooms - living, dining, kitchen, and library, all reached from the main central hall. Also holds the half bath and stairs up to the half-story upstairs with two bedrooms and a full bath. The lot is spacious and can be easily upgraded with pool, garden, or other outdoor decor or activities.

I attempted to make this an entirely base-game build but apparently something from Ambitions slipped in. Possibly a pattern? But this should still be at least mostly base-game friendly. Apologies for the slip! Is CC, CAP or CAW Used? (Did you use any CC in your build) Nope Do you have CC in your game folder? (Do you have any CC at all in your Electronic Arts mods folder?)

@creativity_rulez Your wishlist has sure been raided this month! Lots of gorgeous builds that are exactly what you asked for. Hope you're around to see them.
I think I have everything updated. If I've missed an entry please post here and let me know.
This will be our last month to offer prizes as we are now out of sponsors. If anyone would like to continue the gift of creation game without prizes I'll continue to host the game and post the entries every month! We'll see how that goes.
@ZeeGee I hope I won't be too late, I'm just trying to upload to the exchange. ^_^; I actually had a bunch of fun just making stuff for people. I wouldn't mind doing a few free ones and getting inspired from everyone's submissions.
@creativemetaphor ; such a sweet home! Love how you used the grays and beige(s?).
@Merelhyn ; so cuuute and homey! Wow the purple and green work so well together.
Sorry, you can't use it. I do tend to use a lot of packs and worlds and venue content >_< I should challenge myself and do a base game only upload and maybe a starter home. (I also have a problem keeping things low cost. I'm sure that'll be a challenge in itself LOL) As such I'm really impressed with how nice your home looks.
@AlphaFen ; thank you! I'll tell Poseidon you get first dibs lol ^_~
Creator’s Username: Kiearaphoenix Creator Store Wishlist Link on Sims 3 Site: Kiearaphoenix Wishlist Item Title: Atlantis: Umbra Palace Creation Wishlist Username and # of Item: @AlphaFen 's #2. Something creative so I can Ooo and Ahhh over it and be inspired. Exchange Link: Linky Description:
Large Atlantian palace with underwater theme. The idea behind Umbra Palace is that long ago it was part of Atlantis and sunk with the city beneath the oceans. A couple centuries ago it returned to the surface to search for someone with Royal Atlantian blood to call it home. (I had this idea for a story if the correct person sits on the throne the hologram flowers will turn on and change to the correct color when the palace accepts them as its' owner.) It's kinda sentient and has a mix of tech beyond it's time. Like how there's an ancient feeling to the Atlantis in Disney's Atlantis: The Lost Empire or Nadia: Secret of Blue Water, but the Atlantis had extremely advanced technology for it's time period.
Really have put off finishing this for far too long and it is packed with a LOT of stuff. I ended up taking some stuff out and changing wallpapers twice because I think I used a few things from worlds the wisher did not have >_<; (sorry if I missed replacing some) Details:
4 Bdrm, 4.5 Baths, Mini garden, Outdoor pool, West and East wing suites.
Basement: A tiny wine cellar
1st Floor: Kitchen, Dinning Rm, Entertaining room for foreign dignitaries.
2nd Floor: Small foyer, Throne Rm, 1.5 baths.
3rd Floor: Library, Ballroom, First floor of the 2 royal suites.
4th Floor: Gallery, Servants quaters, Treasure display room,
2nd floor of royal suites, 3 baths. Is CC, CAP or CAW Used? None Do you have CC in your game folder? Yes Pictures or link to original post where pictures are shared:
@KiearaPhoenix i still have a hard time comprehending this place, it just has so much going on. I can feel my game lagging just looking at it. it's just so magnificent, wow!
@Merelhyn I love your starter. The way that you've placed the bed, not requiring any space at the foot, is genius. And where is that door from? I don't recognize it. This is one of the things I love about seeing other peoples' builds. So often I get lost in all the content I have and end up re-using the same items over and over. Then I see something in someone else's work that I've never even noticed I had.
@creativemetaphor I really like the creamy/chocolate tones of your colonial. It's very calming. Of course, at the moment I'm hungry, so it is also making me crave a chocolate or vanilla shake. Or both.
Finally, thank you all for the comments on the Beach House project. As I've mentioned before, I am very proud of the finished work.
Ah, that's why I'm not familiar with it. I use Sim Chooser to turn packs on and off and I rarely have Uni active. I hate the clique system (don't remember the real name) even more than the celebrity system. Although it would be there when I turn everything on for a full build, I can see why it gets overlooked.
@Kiearaphoenix I am in awe! That is spectacular! I agree with @envyfan , I think my laptop is crying just looking at the pictures
@zeegee I'd be happy to keep building even if there were no more prizes, it's a fun way to spur the ol' muse and build something I might not have otherwise!
@Jude525 I started with the walls in the dining room and hadn't originally intended to use that color scheme throughout but it just worked so well! But now I also want a shake lol
@Merelhyn That is an adorable starter, and such a clever layout! I love what you did with the bed! What a great space saver

Thanks everyone! I've always really wanted to finish something out of the box and unusual so I reaaally let my imagination go. Next idea I have is less colorful and maybe less in general. Sorry for those whose laptops got nightmares, lol ^-^;
@ZeeGee Did I fill the 3rd entry form incorrectly?
@Merelhyn You're certainly spoiling my hard up sims with these starters! How will they ever live in the homes I've built once they get used to stylish décor and colour co-ordination!!? It will be well designed anarchy!!
@Merelhyn Thank you! And we have a winner...#7 is @Envyfan for the Simple Warm Starter home for Ciane!!
Congrats Envyfan!!! You will be receiving 458 points of items from @AlphaFen and 542 points of items from me so please post what you would like us to gift you!
This game has been so much fun and has brought the spirit of gifting back to the forum, so this thread will stay open. Please feel free to create anything you want from the creation wishlists and post those creations, however, there will not be monthly prizes. I'll still post the entries on the first page to keep them organized.
