    edited September 2014 in The Sims 4 Lots
    Hi everyone! I hope you are all enjoying your game and making awesome memories! I love The Sims and my favorite part has always been building. I am definitely not an expert or a pro but I put a lot of heart into my creations so I thought I would share some additional pictures of my uploads here. All of these lots can be found under Samerella (my Origin ID). Enjoy and feel free to comment/ask questions! (Also please excuse my poor picture taking skills I haven't quiet got the hang of it for The Sims 4 yet)

      Lavender Lookout
      3 bedroom 2 bath
      For this house I was testing out the "styled rooms" (I still want to call them blueprints) so you'll notice that most of the rooms are tweaked variations of those. I think it came together pretty good and I plan on moving the BFF household in.

      Cozy Crumpet
      2 bedroom 1 bath
      I really love tudor style houses (the pictures of that unknown world are killing me I want it so bad) but I couldn't find many options that would allow me to make the house I was looking for. This is what I settled on. It's a starter home, which I am terrible at building because I hate the limitations a small budget imposes and it's pretty empty for that reason. I still really enjoy the layout though and will probably move in a sim that has some money and see what it turns into.

      Cranberry Split
      3 bedroom 3 bath
      Okay this one was a challenge. I wanted to try out that split level trick and it brought me back to The Sims 3 building, because some of it is on the ground the new build system is less forgiving if you want to move it around or change things. I spent not just hours but days trying to get it right and though it's not perfect I am happy enough with it to share. Oh and when I feel like I have the time to put more effort into it I plan on making a gothic (or just darker) version with a graveyard in place of the garden.

      It is great that you have set up a showcase thread with pictures of your build. :) Each of your homes are very nice! I enjoyed reading the background details that you have written for each of them and your reason and ideas behind building that home. It looks great how you have used the styled rooms in Lavender Lookout, put your own nice touches in the rooms and combined them together to create a very nice home for sims to enjoy living in. Cozy Crumpet is a very nice starter home. Very nice layout of the interior of it. Cranberry Split is very nice! Very nice exterior of the home and the windows that you have used look nice. The red colour of the exterior looks nice and the front porch looks great. It looks great how you have done a pathway leading to the fountain and flowers garden area. The water fountains and flowers feature area looks so very nice! Very nice design of the area! It looks very nice how you have placed the trees along the edges, and have placed the flowers and plants in rows, and have the water features at either ends and the water fountain in the middle. It looks very nice how you have placed the seat benches in this area, for sims to enjoy sitting relaxing on the seats, enjoying being outdoors in the sunshine with such nice floral and plants scenery sights to see! Very nice furnishing of the interior of the home! Very nice layout of the interior. Nice colours that you have used for the walls and the curtains. Very nice dining room! The patterned floor mat under the dining table looks nice and sims will enjoy seeing the nice flowers on the table whilst dining there. Great design of the kitchen! The island bar stool counter is great! The fruit bowl on the counter is a nice touch there. The sunken living room area looks very great! Great study desk alcove room off from the purple coloured kids bedroom. Sims will enjoy sitting at the table there using the computer.
      They all very nice builds! :)

      Hello @twilight_aerith !

      I really like the colors chosen for the Lavender Lookout house it feels calm and relaxing. Also, your Cozy Crumpet looks a lot like Sims 2 houses in the twinbrook world or something like that !

      Keep going the good work :)

      Thank you so much Veriona, rosemow, and Fyjal2631! I haven't even really played as a sim yet haha I just keep building. I'm trying to learn to do recolors but I'm not having much luck. Looks like just building for me :)

      Wow I just went in game for a quick minute and saw that Maxis has liked (favorited?) some of my creations! As someone who tried for years to have a Sims 3 feature build this just made my day possibly even my year!!! Thank you to whichever SimGuru or employee that liked my hard work! Also thank you to anyone who commented on my builds I really enjoyed reading all of the nice things, constructive ideas, and I didn't even mind the mean things because well it's the internet and to be expected lol. Thanks again! Hopefully I'll have a day off soon to do some more building!

      Introducing Java Chip!

      Java Chip
      6 bedroom 3 bath

      Here it is my first ever modern style house! I decided to give row housing a try, this one is meant for 3 "families" and each unit is similar but they are all a tiny bit different. Browns and greens are used throughout, there is a nice backyard with a huge fountain (built to look sort of like a pool,) and a rooftop garden to enjoy the sun. I think this lot really has an "apartment" feel to it and I hope your sims enjoy living here!

      Java Chip is a very nice build! :) Very nice design of it! The layout of it is great! It is great that you have designed it as three apartments for three families to live in, and that each apartment is furnished smilarly. The slanted roofing is great! Very nice exterior of the building. Very nice rooftop garden level! Sims will enjoy sitting on the seats there in the sunshine and have great views! Sims will enjoy growing plants in the garden pots there. The trees there look great. Very nice water pool fountain feature! It looks great! It looks nice how you have placed flowers on the sides of it and have placed seat benches there for sims to enjoy sitting outdoors in the air watching the nice sight of the water fountains. Very nice furnishing of the interior of the apartments! The brown and green colours that you have used look nice. Great bar stool counters in the kitchens. Very nice glass table dining areas for sims to also enjoy dining at on the lower level. The circular floor mats look nice under the tables. Very nice living room areas for sims to enjoy sitting relaxing on the sofas, watching tv. The bath tub alcoves in the bathrooms are very nice. Great balcony areas off from each of the levels of the apartments. It looks nice how you have placed the plants in rows in the front of the house.
      It is a well designed and very nicely furnished build! :)

      Loving the Java Chip.
      I like how each 'apartment' is compact, yet has a lot of comforts!

      Thank you so much KaylyRed! I spent a long time on the Cranberry Split!
      Omg @SimGuruHydra thank you so much! It really means a lot to me that you like it! I have to say, I really like the gallery and that we can comment on builds, I find the whole Sims 4 sharing experience to be very encouraging and I always feel so excited to finish and upload a new lot. I love this awesome community even more with The Sims 4!

      @SimGuruHydra I did see it there! Thank you so much! Seeing my stuff liked by Maxis makes me jump up and down and feel like a little kid all over again. My boyfriend thinks I'm crazy but it makes me so happy and excited to share more!

      Beautiful homes, each unique and creative! :) I really like Java Chip, the exterior is gorgeous and I love the green doors! The interiors are so cozy and warm. I really hope we get some sort of apartment update later on, it was one of my favorite expansion packs. :)
