Thank you! It's been sapping the life from me for a couple of weeks now. LOL I'm happy to have a diversion, with the Pizzaria and the Fashion Headquarters.
Your Witches Castle WIP is looking very nice! @luckyheather Very nice exterior design, towers, wall texture , windows used and the steps to the pool look great!
For something a little different to the Castle/Manor, a Sorcerer's School and some of the other large projects, I started playing with a Contemporary Beach Apartment.

Dude, how did you already get the stair update? That's crazy.
@Taoron Those unusual stair shapes, I thought you had the update. Now I'm baffled as to how you did that with the stairs if you don't have the update.
@groovyboa It's easier to do, when they are outside of the building, than in. Both are possible, if not a complete PITA. It took some planning, some tears, bad words and a little blood, but it worked.
If you mean the half rounds, I used the deck small quarter rounds and made the half round, on the ground, then copied that and pasted it to the edge of each new building level, sideways, then extended it out and tightened it up, to move it into the place I wanted it to be. Moving it freely will drop it back to the ground, so it has to be moved in steps, by stretching, closing and rotating. Of course, also raising and lowering into place, to get the partial wall heights.
@Taoron There have been quite a few threads about it, sorry I'm a new member I can't give any links but look up "The Sims 4 Maxis Monthly Replay: Configurable Stairs, New Content and MORE!" on youtube and skip to 11:00 .
I might have to try to figure that stair thing you did for the time being.
@groovyboa I'm not as YouTube saavy as I'd like to be, at my age, but I'll see if I can't do a step by step in pictures, if not video. If I have enough Hard Drive space, I'll record while I do it. I'll keep you apprised and tag you when I post it.
My love, my love, my fearless love, I will not say goodbye..
Sea may rise, sky may fall, My love will never die..
My heart, my heart, My drowning heart, Oh all the tears I've cried
Oh I may weep forevermore, My love will never die..
The design of the Beach apartment build looks great! @Taoron The balconies are very nice! You will enjoy using the new function of the stairs in your builds

That's what I'm hoping. I'm hoping that landings can be extended and look good, with the new system. If not, I'll continue with the 'hard way' of doing things. lol But, since that will be active with all existing stairs, I'm hopeful. I do have several builds that have been a tad aggrevating, because of the stairs. I'm looking forward to it.
Thank you for your kind comments, about the Beach Apartments. I'm rather pleased with them, myself, and am hard at work decorating, in between making Pumpkin Doughnuts and Cream Cheese Glazed Pumpkin Cinnamon Rolls today. I threw out the remains of a pie Pumpkin last fall, into my side garden, purely as compost and now I have a monstrosity pumpkin patch and have gathered half a dozen, so far. So, I have roasted them and made a bunch of puree.
The Pumpkin doughnuts and the Cream Cheese Glazed Pumpkin Cinnamon Rolls sound delicious! @Taoron It was great that the remains of the pumpkin pie has turned into a pumpkin patch in your garden!
Your family home WIP is looking very nice! @teajaylove Very nice exterior design and roofing and the windows used are very nice. Very nice backyard area! The raised pool patio is very nice! Very nice outdoors bbq and dining area! Sims will enjoy cooking and dining outdoors in the air. The string lights are pretty! They will enjoy growing plants in the planters. Very nice interior entrance areas! The sunken dining room is very nice! Very nice sofas tv watching nook. They will enjoy playing the organ there.
It is looking great!

I wanted to see if I could make something fancy that is 100% base game so I'm making this mansion sorta based on the James B. Duke House (and the French mansion that inspired it). First floor is done, I'm currently working on the second.
I also have this behemoth old college dormitory type building I made because I wanted to use the Seasons windows for something Victorian. I like how the exterior turned out but the interior is a whole other story.
Comments
Later after creating fake steps to the pool and landscaping around with rocks etc.

Here is a family home that I have been working on. (I may change it once we get the new stairs)
