Hello everyone, it has been a while! I finally found some time again to put in an entry, thank you @rosemow for another super fun challenge!
But before I post it, I'm sorry to see that someone copied your wonderful student bedroom and claimed it as their own @WrathofCath . And even worse at a time when you are not feeling at your best. I hope the medication kicks in soon and you'll feel as good as new again soon. *big hugs*

Challenge 178
Theme for the week: An expansion , games or stuff pack themed bedroom.
Gallery name of room: Dreams of Luxury
Origin id: Ninnster
This room was actually decided on yesterdays Twitch stream. It was suggested to me (and by suggested I mean they totally forced me ) when I brought up the challenge to pick a pack at random to make it more interesting, so that's what I did! The pack that was chosen was Luxury Party stuff, not the easiest of packs as it has few items, but I managed to keep it to base game and that one pack only!
The furnishing of Dreams of Luxury using items from Luxury Party Stuff pack looks very luxuriously nice! @Ninnster Very nice brown and beige colour scheme of the room, and the wallpaper looks very nice. It looks very nice the way that the mirrors are placed on the bedhead wall. The curved statues are great touches on the bedside table, and it is nice that there are hanging robes on the wall beside the door for Sims to wear. The brown curtains look very elegant on the side wall! The inbuilt glass windows/doors shoes and clothes closets look so very creatively great! Very nice corner table nook for Sims to enjoy sitting at the golden glittery textured table and do their makeup using the beauty products there. The armchair sitting area near the wall is nice for Sims to sit and relax. The statue, flowers and fruit bowl are nice touches on the table. The white marble flooring looks very elegant! The teaset and towels are a nice touch on the stool at the foot of the bed. The floor rug under the bed adds a nice look to the room.
It is a very nice luxuriously furnished bedroom ! Thankyou very much for entering this week’s challenge !

Theme for the week: an expansion , games or stuff pack themed bedroom
Pack used: "Vampires" Game Pack
Gallery name of room: Vampire Lair
Origin id: Corwim
I'm so happy to finally be able to put in another entry! Thank you for the wonderful theme @rosemow ! I usually never limit myself when building, so this was super fun and new to try out. I've been making a number of vampire related creations lately, so the "Vampires" pack was a natural fit to go with. Plus, my sim Spike needed a lair to lay low when the sun is out and about, so I also had the sim in mind who to build for. I did my best to stay away from purple as I've been doing a number of builds with that colour, time for a change, but oh my, soooo hard to stay away from it with a vampire themed room! Luckily, Spike's colour scheme for his outfits is red and black (and well, blond hair, but good luck fitting that into a build ), so that set up the colours as well.
Without further ado, let's meet the new vampire in town! Now for Buffy the Vampire Slayer fans Spike needs no introduction, but to all others, he started out as a mean vampire until he fell in love with a slayer (or vampire hunter if you will). He attempted to redeem his soul and become good, but as usual, things didn't go exactly as planned. Anyway, here he is welcoming you to his new underground lair in the local cemetary:
Right! Onwards to the room itself then, first the overview/layout:
Let's have a look inside then:
There's a comfy (well, by vampire standards ) fire place and seating area. And will you look at that, a huge picture of Spike's great love, Buffy the vampire slayer herself.
Spike is up to speed with modern technology, so even though he may not like them, he does have a desk and computer in his room, right under the painting of his great-great-great-great-grandfather.
At the other end of the room is the bed. Spike, like any vampire, does have a bit of dramatic flair, so he wanted a big poster bed enveloped with red velvet curtains:
On a path of redemption, Spike has included a statue of a fallen angel in his room, kind of like he feels he is (though he's not yet sure that goes most for the 'angel' or the 'fallen' part ):
On one side of the bed is a little reading nook:
On the other side is Spike's dresser and a mirror:
Well, the mirror is more for looks, and perhaps human guests staying over, because Spike can confirm that also in The Sims 4 vampires don't have a reflection! (lolz, didn't actually knew this until I playtested this room ) Proof is here:
Another view of the seating in front of the fireplace:
Now wait a minute, didn't we miss anything? What's behind these curtains?
Oh dear, it's Spike's coffin and private sanctum, better not stay here for too long!
Ok, that concludes the tour, thank you for dropping by!
For those interested, there's a few more pictures of playtesting shenanigans underneath the spoiler:
Spike usually enjoys reading when he's home alone:
Unfortunately that's not often since he decided to walk the no-more-drinking-from-humans path. Sam drops by often to play games on his computer. Well, can't kick the guy out, he did make that Buffy painting for Spike.
These other two make a lot more noise though! Spike's rock'n-roll heart is bleeding hearing Katie trying out fluffy pop songs on his guitar, and Faith keeps babbling to herself in the mirror. Not that Spike can say anything wrong to her, after all, she is another one of those slayers!
Luckily things do calm down after a while, and chatting with each other is fun, even for Spike:
Even more in front of that warm and cozy fire:
Aaah, time for a revitalizing sleep in his coffin:
Really, this is when the three of them decide to have a little dance party?
Hours later, finally they are exhausted as well, with Faith crashing on the couch:
And Sam and Katie taking up the comfy vampire bed:
Sssjt, better let these guys catch up on some sleep now.
You're welcome @WrathofCath. I'm glad you're starting to feel better because of the meds.
@WrathofCath --- If someone copied your room (which is obvious,) then, hit the "report" button on the gallery next to the "download" and "like" buttons. Then, Maxis will remove the copied room, and I think they do something to make sure the person doesn't copy rooms, lots or households. I just hit the report button when it happens to me. Then, there's a space where you can briefly explain what happened --- such as, "This person copied my room!"
I hope you feel better about that issue soon! I hate when that happens to me!
Vampire Lair is a great bedroom for your Spike Vampire ! @Corwim It looks great how you have used the items from the Vampires pack in the room! The wall texture, black greenery, and ripped and torn walls gives a great feel to the room! Your buffy themed artwork picture on the wall looks great! It is nice that there is a computer desk area in the room, and that Spike has a framed portrait of great, great, great, great grandfather on the wall for him to look at when using the computer,. The design of the curtained 4 poster canopy bed looks very luxuriously nice! The wall, candlelights look very nice in the room. Very nice black sofa and armchairs fireplace sitting area for Sims to rest there and have a chat in front of the fire, listening to gramophone music. They will enjoy having a drink from the bottles on the coffee table.The urns are a great touch on the fireplace ledge. The large sun on the wall is great , with vampires not being able to be out in the sunlight! The fairy statue in the corner nook is a great touch in the room, and the ghostly gnome on top of the bookcase looks great! Very nice tall armchair corner reading nook for vampires to enjoy reading a book. The other portrait pictures are a nice touch on the wall beside the door, and the coat stand is a nice touch. It is great that there is a nook alcove with a coffin, beefing the curtains! Vampires will enjoy sleeping there! The red candles and the bat , black greenery , and the armour banners on the wall look great there! The spell book is great placed near the alcove.
The furnishing of the room for a vampire looks creatively great! Thankyou very much for entering this week’s challenge !

Guy’s Loft is a very stylishly nice loft bedroom! @luckyheather The pink/purple and grey colour scheme of the room looks very nice! It looks great how the items from the Fitness Stuff pack have been used in the room. The loft area with the double looks great! It looks very nice how the steps up to it has been created. The large wallart pictures look great on the loft, bathroom and side walls. Sims will like using the beauty products that are on the bedside table.Very nice nook area for sims to enjoy using the treadmill and weights machine to keep fit. They will enjoy listening to radio music through the wall speaker whilst doing their fitness training. The mirror type used there looks great, and the items are a nice touch on the wall shelves. They will like wearing the robe when in the room.They will have fun playing video games in the game cube. Very nice sofa seats sitting area for Sims to relax and watch tv or read a book, or have fun playing console games. The car and books are great touches on the coffee table. The type of hanging candles ceiling lights used in the room look very nice and stylish, and the patterned windows type used gives a great look to the room! It is great that there is a bathroom area under the loft. The grey brick texture of the walls gives a great look to the room area. It is very nice that the triangular bath tub has been used there.

It is a very stylish bedroom and a great place to keep fit. Thankyou very much for entering this week’s challenge !
Thank you @rosemow for telling me how much you like the areas in the room and colour scheme that was inspired by those great pictures of young men by Eveana Thanks for the brilliant idea for this challenge.
@Corwin : You wall work is fabulous! @luckyheather : I've always wanted to ask you... The loft rooms you make; are the stairs functional? @WrathofCath : Dang, that burns. Copiers that present things as their own just irritate me.

Thanks for the nice comment about Pearl Is Three! I kinda went overboard with the wall decals there.
But before I post it, I'm sorry to see that someone copied your wonderful student bedroom and claimed it as their own @WrathofCath . And even worse at a time when you are not feeling at your best. I hope the medication kicks in soon and you'll feel as good as new again soon. *big hugs*
