QUERIES / WIP SCREENSHOTS REGARDING CURRENT BUILD

April 10/19
Hi @ElijahsBabyGurl9 , here's a tweak of the shell. Does this version look better to you? I got rid of the frieze layer so while the roof pitch is steeper than the inspiration photo, the walls will drop down like normal now. There is a sun room at the rear in addition to the wrap around porch on the right side. If you are good with the shell... since you indicated you like green and I think of jade when I think Asian, I've given you an option of the green roof, however I can just utilize green on the interior. Preference of roof colour?

Ignore the landscaping since this can change later on. Speaking of landscaping... if you would like to have the horse ball I will keep the front lawn in front of the stable/nectary empty since you'll need the space for it to work. If you don't use the horse ball, I may add a small pond.

For the interior decor... would you prefer traditional Asian... more updated version kinda like this... or more English cottage with Asian/zen touches? Looking forward to your input

Hi @ElijahsBabyGurl9 , Since this is a cottage, I've put it on a 40x40 as shown below which provides enough space for a kids playground, garden and room for a horse and dog to run around as requested, and also provides more options for placement in different worlds.

WIPs below for you to make a decision on whether you still want me to proceed with this house plan. Unfortunately there are limitations in Sims 3 with what I can do to replicate the taller than normal first floor walls and the multi-level roof pieces to accommodate a usable second floor. I've tried different options and below is the closest I can get to the inspiration without wall tearing.

You'll also see in the pics below that some frieze pieces show in the walls down / cutaway modes. If you are happy enough with this shell despite these limitations, I can proceed full speed ahead with the interior and landscaping. Thoughts?

soocoolsim

OK, I'm all set now to receive check-ins on this thread

emma1293

Thanks for claiming my request! :D

soocoolsim

You're welcome emma. I'll be touching base with you once the shell is ready before I start work on the insides since it's a large build and will take some time

emma1293

ok no problem! :D

soocoolsim

Hi @emma1293 , just touching base to assure you I've been working on your build. I have the floor plans laid out based on your detailed specs... am just fussing with tweaking the front exterior. Once I'm happy with the exterior frame I'll work on the interior furnishings.

Modern buildings run the gamut from ultra modern to more of a blended look so I'm open to sharing WIP photos with you as touch points to ensure my vision matches with yours OR if you prefer I can just work on my own and let you know once ready for download. Just let me know what you prefer

emma1293

if it helps we could look at pictures of modern houses? or working on your own and show me what you have later and do tweeks ?

soocoolsim

How to you feel about this (honestly)? I will be tweaking a lot and adding the pool, landscaping, etc. as I go along... just touching base to see if this is kinda what you were thinking.

AIRIS6962

WOW @soocoolsim , you´re really fast !!
Your WIP looks wonderful to me.
Happy weekend, dear

emma1293

uh oh wow! that looks awesome... is that on a 60x60 lot?

emma1293

also could i say that i prefer the yellow to be like a beige/white?

soocoolsim

Glad you like the framework emma and great to hear your input.
Yes, on a 60x60 since it gives you more options for placement.
Absolutely we can change the colours... I'm going in-game now to tweak and finalize the floor plans since we're on the same page

emma1293

oh good good cos i tried to play on a 63x63 lot and my game crashed :( like right now for instance whilst i was playing haha, the framework is awesome!, how many bedrooms are there? are you gonna take a pic of the floor plans?

emma1293

oooh! before i forget i now have generations!

soocoolsim

I'll take pics of the floor plans once I finalize all the walls. You'll see I have a few objects in the rooms... this is just for me to remember what I'm using them for and sometimes to estimate how much room I'll need. Once I get into décor I'll touch base with you again.

OK, here we go... I've changed the colour and also started to add in some of the architectural details. Let me know if you don't like the group of L-shaped pillars in front. After this check-in the rest of the exterior (including the back) will be a secret until final reveal, ok

[edited to remove WIP - Photobucket issue]

I just noticed a wall I need to recolour... no worries, all will be checked before the final..

soocoolsim

7 bedrooms... I'm putting in everything you asked for, even the cinema

edit: Before I go much further I'll double-check everything I've used so far you own and replace if needed.
BTW... you said in your form we could use anything from the store... does that mean you own all the store items?

emma1293

that looks even awesomer! but the rounded wall (front of house) colours don't seem right? what do you think? and yea i kinda dislike the L shape walls sorry!, im really not sure if i have the store items do you know which ones they are?

soocoolsim

NP sweetie, removing the L-shaped pillars is a simple thing. My only concern is that the white may look too stark but if you prefer a really clean look, it may work for you. For the rounded wall, we can try a few things... I can change it to white or use one of the brown colours using a flat paint, or I can switch the pattern from horizontal to vertical. Another option is to add windows. I'll post some pics later on and you can choose one of them.

I'm going to use base game and the EP/SP items as much as possible but if you have stuff from the store it opens more options.
I don't see anything on your wish list. Do you have the Bauhaus building collection?

While I'm working on finalizing the floor plans, perhaps you can take a look online and if you find any décor photos of a few rooms you really, really like, just post the links here. Not so much that I'll duplicate, but it will give me a sense of the kind of style you like. TTFN.

soocoolsim

OK @emma1293 , I tried different options and I think this looks the best. Will be moving on to the interior then to the outdoor activities and landscaping...

Oopsie... missed this comment. Thanks @AIRIS6962 . I'm not that fast.... spent lots of time on this having fun instead of sleeping, lol. I think the latest tweaks look better and am finally happy with the exterior

emma1293

hey i dont have the Bauhaus building collection where can i find?... btw i love the colours! how about on some of the colums they could be stone grey? also i had a thought last night on the back at the side am i right in thinking thats the party room? well i was thinking perhaps the french doors could be used to go outside from that room? on to the back?

btw the site wont let me post links as i'm new here

emma1293

i just checked out the Bauhaus building collection i dont have enough sim points to get it :(
