    ENTRY DETAILS: I started out Modern and ended up going with what I thought looked more like a European row house. For the office space, I created more of a reception room to meet with a client and work space to one side. There's a second office area on the ground floor so both the Grays can work at the same time.
    CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM: Sure!

    ENTRY DETAILS: This was fun; i really enjoyed this challenge. So all in all i built a Retro Classy Home that just happens to be Black White and Grey all over - 50 Shades of Grey. I am hoping it is not too much of a house but rather something upscale and breezy which requires very little upkeep on the landscape.

    So if we use CC do you still want the lot uploaded? I assume, that is mainly for checking the price?

    Yes, please :) We do use the gallery to verify reported build costs.

    HOUSEHOLD: Gray
    LINK TO ENTRY SLIDESHOW: Black is the New Black
    ENTRY DETAILS: I kept them basically in black except for some grays and some white accents. He's creative, foodie, outgoing with the Fabulously Wealthy aspiration (wants his business to be a success). She's also a foodie, cheerful and a perfectionist (scary in a critic) with the Bestselling Author aspiration (Wants to write more than reviews one day). They have some cooking skills. She has some writing: he has some computer programming and she's a 'Chow Chaser' - Level 4 Food Critic. Didn't want to level her up too much as it makes them less fun to play.
    CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM: Absolutely

    Is this the link to your lot @lorrie1910 ? https://www.ea.com/en-gb/games/the-sims/the-sims-4/pc/gallery/CA3C531839E611E8824C4B57E267D701
    All I did to find it was search your user name then find the one that said 50 shades of grey. I right clicked to open that lot in a new page then copied the link from there. Hope that helps :)

    Oh I noticed it didn't have the BnS92 hashtag in the description, you might want to fix that :)

    Hello there! I must have overlooked this if you've already posted it, but can your entry be modified up until the deadline? If not, can you enter more than one build? I discovered wall coverings I've never used and it inspired a different exterior color combo I'd like to try. If the answer is, "no," that's ok too! Thanks for your time! :)

    So I uploaded my house but I can't figure out how to get the gallery on this website to show CC builds. I know in game you have to click on an advanced option but the only advanced in the sites gallery is for Maxis fav'd stuff. I am not sure how to get a link to it.

    I'm just checking with the writer of the brief @KojiK, but you can, of course, enter a house and a room. Just be sure to fill out both the entry forms.

    ENTRY DETAILS: I wanted to give the Grays a sophisticated and modernist home. I also love the style of CC creator, Peacemaker_ic. He makes such wonderful stuff and I thought I could decorate a home more to the grays liking with the wonderful thing he has created. I gave them a open kitchen and dining area and also added a small powder room and laundry to the downstairs. Upstairs you can find two full bedrooms and bathrooms. One is more a master bed and bath than the other. They have a small pool outside with a small entertaining area. I tried to keep the landscaping to a minimum so they can easily keep up with it.
