    To be honest, I get my sims the highest and most expensive material things. I have a very wealthy style for my sims, and rarely dwelve into modern or "hip". I mainly stay within those lines! :D How about you? :wink:

      Most of my sims are retrosexual; 60s retro, nothing made out of wood, everything IKEAesque, tons of digusting puke dark colours, etc.

      I tend to go very traditional, because I build alot of traditional and Victorian style homes so most of the simmies that live there seem to be along the same lines. Classic style, colors, nothing too funky.......sad...but true.

      Well, house stlye would be kinda not traditional but not super modern, just kinda in the middle. Like a early 2000's house in a sub-division kinda. If you know what i meen. I also like modern but only in certain rooms. And for the sims clothing style, it would be Scene and sometiems casual.

      My sims style's a little boring. I tend to lean towards the craftsman or traditional furnishings. Nothing too posh or gaudy.

      I tend to lean towards a country style. But everyone gets an upgrade on the bed. I want them to get well rested.

      Depends on the personality of the Sim I'm designing the house for. I'm making one for three rock stars now and it's so rich and awesome. Finished one for a modern nature-loving family (it's available for download too :lol: ) which I love but is very different. It has a ton of wood and glass but a funky purple and yellow kitchen which is my favorite. :-)

      I like a "fresh" look -- pale wood flooring and neutral colours like sage or lavender for the walls. I also like to do "theme" houses that are fully coordinated, inside and out (as seen in my legacies.)

      Blue blood. Filthy, filthy rich, antique houses that take me at least five 'motherlodes' to furnish as a whole. The best materials, everything like that.

      I tend to forget to get new stuff unless they actually have a Wish for it.... My poor poor Sims. :mrgreen:

      The only time I buy new stuff is if I'm rebuilding their home. :wink:

      My sims are usually dressed in either a modern/every day style or a style leaning more towards the 'rock' or 'punkish' style cause that's a style I wear and like too!

      The furniture will be pretty basic, not too expensive and usually the colour of whatever the sim's favourite colour is. I don't like things too matchy though so I can't have a room with everything exactly the same colour.

      I tend to go fairly traditional, using earth tones and pastels for the color scheme. I'm not a big fan of repetative patterns, so I either go for the most organic looking patterns I can find, or I go with something that has more of a texture than a pattern.

      I buy them what they can afford but I like high quality beds so they can get a good night sleep. I also like to buy nice fridges and stoves so they don't eat icky food. I buy nice tv's because it fills their fun moodlet faster and I cant stand waiting a long time.

      Modern for the housing. And... Well, for the customization for the sims, it's just however I feel at the moment. I guess the sims that I have created show what I like. Go check it out if you like. :)

      I love the Victorian Era, so same for my simmies. BUT i also like modern clothing, frilly dresses, sequins etc.

      For the house...still have to come up with something close to my dreams

      I rather kinda like the hoochie mama look on my female sims. I think I like that style on them because I could never be bold enough to wear some of that stuff irl. :oops:

      My Sims never live poorly or rundownish. I can't stand that, and it's no fun to play. I like either mid to high class traditional or contemporary style, but nothing ultra modern or spacey. I prefer medium to medium large size, and I never build mansions. Too much wasted space.

      I try to get my Sims the best furniture, but not all the pieces have to be the most expensive. It's all in how you decorate it using CASt. I lightly accesorize, and do not overdo it, otherwise the house looks too cluttered.

      I like spacious homes, but not wasted space. Nor do I like boxy added-on-later rooms, or twisty turny hallways that lead everywhere. Every room must have a practical purpose and the floor plan must flow well, with an open look. Vaulted ceilings are a nice touch. I use both pastels and dark colors. With dark colors, I usually use floor to ceiling windows so the room doesn't look like a dark cave.

      I follow the standard throughout the whole house: main color, contrast color, and one (or two) accent colors. No weird purple and orangey poka-dot houses for me. (Although my nephew has an old car that color that he still drives!) :D

      I'm all over the place since I build in many different styles and I play test the homes I build. My sims get whatever I'm testing and the style that goes with it.

      It's pretty limited at the moment though since all we have is the basegame and The Store.

      So it could be something simple one week:

      Or Modern:

      Or Nouveau Riche:

      ridiculouly average. i have not the patience to decorate every room to my liking.

      Clothing is another story. I like to have some sims who are fashion-forward, retro, preppy, sloppy, or just plain sexy.

      I like to build small houses. I like to imagine what my first house will be like when I'm done university. Just some cute little post-war house, with modern furniture!
