    @Zita1966z ((hugs)) shame about your CC entry,
    :( it was looking great, Good Luck with your re make! I've not been brave enough yet to add CC to my game,
    but your pictures tempted me! need to work out how easy/hard it is to get it in game!

    @Liziann1 CC is great and dangerous and the same time. It's a constant awareness of bad cc, but I play my real game only with cc and the visuals makes it worth it at the end of the day. I do not upload builds with cc because it will be pointless 2 do so lol <3

    @Nhicks, sorry to hear you are having problems, but I know you as an established and very good builder, so I know you will figure something out. After that gorgeous Opulance build of yours, I can not wait to see what you come up with. <3

    I agree don't be! :)

    I am very touched though by all the lovely comments from everyone because I have to say I was feeling very intimidated by the sneak peaks I seen because I'm such a traditional builder I just didn't think it would be creative enough. I really can't wait to see everyone else's! <3

    Great build @Nhicks I did comment on your page but forgot to mention how much I love your class room with the green flooring. It totally reminds me of my science class in Jr High! You nailed it!

    @Liziann1 I really love the architecture of your build and how colourful the inside is! The spacey play area is cute and I love the music room! :)

    LOT: Sanctuary Orphanage (Originally called The Monpellier Boarding Academy for Wayward Youngsters but had to be renamed due to bureaucratic restrictions on the length of business monikers)

    LOT COST: $10,000

    LINK TO ENTRY SLIDESHOW: http://s708.photobucket.com/user/mdhanson072/slideshow/Sims 4 Lots/Sanctuary Orphanage
    ENTRY DETAILS:
    Sanctuary Orphanage is the pinnacle of its industry. Sporting state of the art design, the school is geared towards bringing enlightened education through social and cultural participation. The young students are given the absolute best in amenities, educational facilities, and housing evidenced by the presence of an Olympic grade indoor swimming pool, an award winning CRECHE facility, and a state of the art athletic gymnasium easily utilized for workouts, training, and full court sports. In addition, the facility boasts multiple grand spaces to host fundraising and child adoption related events.

    Ms. Montpellier's vision was achieved by integrating all the necessities of an academic institution with a nature focused, modern architectural design aimed at harnessing the maximum imaginative potential of the students and faculty. Multiple agricultural learning areas and an intrinsic fusion of natural elements with modern architecture serve to make the building not just a school but a community of life. The curriculum at the school fosters this belief by allowing students and faculty opportunities to experience nature and growth in a multiple faceted setting.

    A two storied fantasy fun land for those tiny learners! Multiple creative areas and interactive displays foster early childhood development and focuses on critical skills development.

    ENTRY DETAILS: I did my very Best to make it fit in with the town of oasis springs. Hence the arcitecture choice, and the interior being themed in mostly green and brown. I accommodated both children and teens. Some of the photos were taken before I realized I was over budget (due to the expensive lot) so some of the slideshow may show slight differences from what the lot actually has ( i went back and replaced items with cheaper versions, for example = cheaper computers, appliances, and etc, did a tiny amount of landscaping. nothing major)
