    Wow! Not only did you capture the reference perfectly, you did it with such a *huge* floor plan! That's always tricky, the larger it gets the harder it seems to get the scale right in recreating but that's just stunning. Your roof - which must have been a pain - is spot on! Fantastic all around :)

    Thanks so much @creativemetaphor! Yes, that was definitely a huge floor plan and such unique roofing. @soocoolsim helped me perfect the roof, as best that could be done with the game limits. Thanks for stopping by. :)

    Mira Vista is such a Beautifully done home @Sandraelle! So very like the inspiration picture but even more beautiful, I think. Love the meticulously done interiors and the landscaping is gorgeous! :blush:

    Sandy, I finally opened up Mira Vista in game. You really slayed this beast. So much work and so well done in every room. I particularly love the kitchen, breakfast nook and living area and how it opens up to the large foyer. Love the unusual combination of grey and yellow in the nursery. So many neat touches throughout. The whole build internally and externally reflects beautiful and luxurious living. Well done!

    @soocoolsim , Thanks so much Paula! I'm glad you liked the nursery. My requester wanted the kids' rooms to be gender neutral, plus wanted me to incorporate rabbits and foxes somewhere, so I picked the yellow, grey and red for the bunny nursery. It's hard for me to decorate bedrooms when they're not gender specific. Lol

    This was a DNA request build from @winterbaby20 to build a modern styled restaurant with luxury in mind, using only the black and silver color scheme. (I was allowed to add in a bit of wood textures and plants as well.) Pictures show it built on a lot in a custom world, "Brooklyn Heights", which the requester asked for. (In case you're interested, the world can be downloaded at the MySimRealty website, http://www.mysimrealty.com/WORLDS_BrooklynHeights.html).

    The only store items used were from the Business As Usual Professional Kitchen Set.

    Ambience is a very modern style restaurant! :) The black and silver colour scheme of the venue looks so very effective! Very nice exterior design of the restaurant and the layout of the interior level looks so great! The circle windows look very nice in the build. Very nice design of the front entrance area! The furnishing of the interior looks very stylish! The white flooring tiles in the reception lobby gives a great look to the build! It looks very nice how the main dining room is set up, with the tables for sims to enjoy dining at. Very nice floor patterning, and the plants are very nice touches of nature and green colour there. The raised plants box os very nice! The black half wall looks nice separating off the areas. The black rose looks great on the wall! Very nice outdoors dining nook! The overhead and side structures look great! The greenery along the side looks very nice. Sims will enjoy dining outdoors in the air! Very nice bar area! The hanging ceiling lights look elegant ! Sims will enjoy sitting on the stools having a drink from the bar. They will enjoy using the bubbles machine!
    It is a very nice restaurant to enjoy dining at! :)

    @soocoolsim , thank you so much Paula! I was going for upscale, so glad you think so. I was running out of black and silver patterns, and silver is a tricky color to make look silver. I liked the starry ceiling too. :smiley:

    @Sandraelle

    OOOh squeals with delight it is awesome I adore every inch of it.. The way you have planned all the areas leading into one another is perfect. the bungalows are adorable. The buffet area is gorgeous and the way you have designed the spa area is so creative it looks wonderful so close to the public beach area. I love that steam room hut! I never knew an underground tower could look so appealing I thought they simply got stuck underground and there was nothing else there how wrong could I be lol My simmies are going to love their vacations from now on with so much to do in such an appealing resort.

    I just went to look at the imgur pics and I have to say I love the way the resort looks situated in game I think it suits the style of the world perfectly without jutting out into the sky I think it was the right choice for the resort to be more at ground level. I really like the shower area leading towards the public beach it makes it look like the beach is a part of the resort which is something I have wanted it to look like for a long time.

    I just saw the little cafe/ice cream area thank you so much that is so perfect as I love ice cream parlors.. The view at the fire-pit is fantastic and that will get used more now because of where it is placed. The pool is really well done the surf's up machine looks like it's meant to be there for a change -)

    All the bars/games/casino rooms are really well kitted out and love the little walkways to and from the various areas.

    The resort is beyond my expectations it looks so appealing I cannot thank you enough especially as I am almost sure it took you out of your comfort zone somewhat :)

    You need to change the 40x40 in your description on the thread as the resort is 64x64-) :)
