As someone in architecture I can say that the grass roof trend is partly aesthetic and partly an exploration of more climate-friendly and vernacular building techniques. 👌
I’m laughing so hard. This is me when I’m building small houses. It’s like “oh, is this too much kitchen? Wait, why did X disappear? Wtf, this was working a moment ago! Oh, plants, where can I put more plants??” Debug plants are amazing for doing living roofs, because there’s more colour variations, and they size differently than the other ones. I’m loving this design!!
As a Canadian who has been gardening in my dining room out of desperation to have some green in my life, I love the idea of having a garden roof. I’d turn my whole house into a greenhouse if I could 😂
Same, i found her 3 years ago and just started playing when the BG became free. I already knew how to play basically because i filled my need to play by watching every single video 🤣
I dont understand the thing with every sims builder and "too much color" like its so okay to do as much color as you want and can fit! It doesn't make it look bad to have more colors! There are plenty of good neutral or black and white everything homes. I want more builds where people use all of the colors! I build what I can in my own sims game with the packs I have but id love to see some really bright builds that aren't the room color challenges.
This build was suggested for me on the gallery last week so I got it and I found out I can have access to the pre order items even though I didn’t pre order eco lifestyle. So I finally have the bike ive always wanted.
I don't believe eco lifestyle had pre order items? The only pre order bike exclusive so far came with Cottage Living. The bike in this build is however locked in debug unless you find it in a dumpster in gameplay so you may not have "found" it :)
Apparently the planter and the bike from what google says. But I didn’t preorder either pack and was able to get the content from the gallery so I’m not sure
Even if you don’t preorder, all the game files for the preorder stuff come with the pack so you have them, they’re just not unlocked. There’s a mod that unlocks them all for you. But the bike you’re talking about is unlocked through gameplay, so if you want it in your builds you can open the cheat menu and put in bb.ignoregameplayunlocksentitlement
@@rosalyngummer6587 I’m on console and it won’t let me have access to the high school years preorder items but it lets me have all the others off the gallery. How can I fix that?
As both a Simmer and a graduated architecture student (current electrical designer), can confirm Green Roofs are the Best and plants should go everywhere. Have an empty wall? Make it a living wall! There's actual places downtown that have turned their rooftops into apiaries too, and while IRL they tend to be more tamed / manicured, the more wild, overgrown look here is so good! A very nice build Simsie
Simsie I love this build, never worry about it being too much!! If you like something, keep it!! No matter how random or bold! We are here for your personality and talent ❤
This tiny house is so cosy and comforting after spending the past week playing in the 8000 simoleon bills behemoth I'm using for my alphabet baby challenge 😭 I might have some of the kids move into it.
This build would be perfect for like an older apiarist couple. Would explain all the flowers everywhere for the bees etc. The couple probably come from a farming/produce/carpentry background but as they’ve aged they’ve had to cut back on what work they can manage so the settled on a smaller (possibly self built?) house and still kept up a hobby like beekeeping to keep them busy.
I loved the video, I feel like you're really putting effort into your videos. It takes a lot to think of a different video idea every day, and I love when you do stuff like this and make different types of buildings. I'd love to see you experiment more with new building styles and themes and aesthetics. Just an idea, as i prefer your builds when you do not limit money 😊
I have once read that using lots of green walls would actually be better than green roofs! Simply because we still have the benefits from all the greenery but it doesn't weigh down down on the building. I can't remember exactly anymore but the watering system was also explained and had some pros to it and I just really like the idea of having green walls almost everywhere
there are actually so many real benefits for plants in buildings or even on roofs! as an architecture student, plants on roofs allows you to take advantage of all of the empty space that would just serve no purpose, and have a garden! plants inside help with air quality and can improve overall mental and physical health :)) biophilic design is the best
I love the house. I like green rooftop more than regular roofs. Unrelated subject but I dont know why people use that ecolifestyle door with thick frame inside the house. I think that door is to be use only on the exterior. It doesnt make sense have that thick ornamentation in the inside.
I love it! Your green rooftops look amazing! I make them A LOT but usually end up using CC plants to get it to look like this, and here you showed me I absolutely do not need to use the CC plants! Thank you! Love the build, and thank you for all you do. :)
I love this house!!! And i really like that you went all out with the plants on the roof, i think it works really well for this build!! super cute home
I really love all the plants! This build inspired me to start building my dream cottage, so that's what I'm going to do now. It will also have lots of plants lol
this is actually such a cute house omg🥹 i don’t have as many packs as u do BUT i definitely wanna try to make one like this, cuz it’s a really cool concept
i honesty don’t know why the plants are such a huge part in sims houses. realistically, nobody is putting that many plants in their house, especially not in the dark corners of their closet 😭😭 they’re just so cute
Simsie! Love your builds :D, an "architect" tip for some of the plain roofs, try placing a halfwall that sticks out a little (in real life its around 2-3 inches tall) for more realism, in spanish the term is pretil.
Kayla: "There are so many plants.. everywhere just plants.." Also Kayla, few seconds later: puts planter boxes! :D :D btw.. I love the build. The fairylights on top looks so cosy :)
I love it, so cute. Real life, for me all those plants would have to be fake because I'm horrible about watering plants. lol. Cute house. I can't wait to see what you have planned for builds once the update happens and that pack is released.
“when in doubt, plant it out” was always a rule of thumb of mine when decorating homes in animal crossing, so im not surprised to see decorating in other games is the same! thank you, simsie
Simsie said she's so afraid to build a house for her next NSB gen, cause it's orange & she doesn't really like that color that much (or the objects). But she honestly did so well here & tried so many new different things in this build, that I hope she incoperates them in her legacy^^
As an environment engineer student yes!! Actually the technical term for them are green roofs and unfortunately they are illegal in many cities :/ but they’re awesome!!
I'm doing all the things (walls, floors, objects etc) of Eco Lifestyle having like Eco Footprint +2, Eco friendly +2 and cost reducing object, beds and other things will have more comfort points than normal, stress reduced etc. Lights will be lighty but they won't spend any electricity. The power generator will be able to generate electricity, but it will have a +2 Ecological Footprint and be a +2 Eco-friendly, cost-saving object. I'm using Sims 4 Studio for that, when I finish it I'll publish it for you.
I love how lilsimsie either wants to use 10,000 plants all over her builds or just puts one single plant above the toilet.
False lol jk
u have amazing dimples my friend
@@oscarkamala those are not dimples lmao
she just like me fr
@@imanimcdowell1520 It's a joke
Plants in The Sims 4 are GODS! Have an empty corner? STICK A PLANT THERE!
I thought that was a life rule. Maybe this is why my husband put me on a plant diet. @toritiffsuela on the gallery

This seems like one of the comments it says on the loading screen 😅
@@defnotgigiwait it really does 😂😂
same goes for real life too when you think about ut
If sims could actually fall from roofs or other hights without fences it would give Simsie so many new options. Nightmare legacy challenge gone wild 😅
As someone in architecture I can say that the grass roof trend is partly aesthetic and partly an exploration of more climate-friendly and vernacular building techniques. 👌
Green infrastructure all the way!! 💚
at this point simsie is keeping me sane
If you need to pass time watch her nightmare legacy from the beginning!

@@soimsha. this is my favorite activity 😭😭 ive restarted it from episode one like 5 times
Yes
Same tbh
simsie: i want to use a ton of plants
also simsie: is it too many plants? idk
Lilsimsie is back at it again with another fantastic build. Would love it if she made a Playlist for her newcrest renovation plan
As an architecture student the green roof really hit home lol
What kind of architecture are you studying or hoping to work in, like residential or…? Just wondering, I’d love to study architecture when I’m older
@@Eja132 I honestly don't know lol, probably hoping to work in residential tbh
As an architecture student also, my aim is to not stick a green roof on every project because my tutors keep giving me the stink eye at this point 😂
@@nicole42999 cooool, that’s what I’d like to do I think
Always a green roof! Such an important design feature moving forward against climate change
I don't think there can ever be too many plants. I love to add plants in every room and all over the outside of my builds! I love what you did.
I’m laughing so hard. This is me when I’m building small houses. It’s like “oh, is this too much kitchen? Wait, why did X disappear? Wtf, this was working a moment ago!

ah yes, the classic builder question of " but what if PLANT "
Me both IRL and in The Sims
This build was great for today which is actually "Plant Power Day"
It's also lesbian visibility day, at least in my country, not that it has nothing to do with plant, but yey!
@@ivonne_lau it does
lesbian boho plant lady apartment supremacy (I'm a lesbian plant lady)
@@jieunstulip6894 oh my god, I love that, Im gonna build that, thanks for the idea
Wait isnt it International Women's Day?
@@jieunstulip6894 id love to see Simsie to build this 🤩 has she?
I absolutely love this build. So much. The roof in particular is *gorgeous*
What was your thought process behind commenting this?
This build is soooooooo cool I love it when kayla builds something not ordinary and just let's herself do crazy stuff
Hey Kayla, I'd love to see you build a movie theater for the get famous world, I think that would be a neat build for you to do.
Omg and make it like 20s themed cuz get famous has some like old hollywood vibes imo
As a Canadian who has been gardening in my dining room out of desperation to have some green in my life, I love the idea of having a garden roof. I’d turn my whole house into a greenhouse if I could 😂
Really nice job with this build! It's super cute and I always love seeing the "out of my comfort zone" stuff you do.
you got me into playing the sims 4 so thank you!!
keep up the good worm kayla xx

Such a pretty little home. Love how the green plant roof turned out!
The pot plant at the front door matching the roof is so cute 😍

green roof tops are very environmentally friendly and its cute. i think all houses should be like this
The ceiling looks amazing 😍
I love this little home. The rooftop with the fairy lights is so pretty!
Kayla I cannot stress this enough
Embrace the too much
It most definitely is too much and we love it. More plants!
LOVE how the build turned out, it’s all so cozy and the plants were perfect
Lilsimsie's style has evolved and I'm here for it! 🙌🙃
I like when Kayla builds a small tiny house. This eco lifestyle build with plants is so cool.🤗🤗
i’ve been dealing with some really bad stuff lately and whenever lilsimsie posts it makes my day so much better.
I loved this build!!!! Simsie did such a great job!! ❤️
I love the roof and the whole house. It looks so nice. There are never too many plants!
“Idk what’s going on but I’m gonna ignore it” is SUCH A MOOD 😂 I do the same lol. Love how this turned out!!
Oh, I LOVE this, Kayla! I think this is my favorite build you've ever done.
This build is absolute gold! It may feel out of your comfort zone, but you nailed it. I'm definitely going to download this lot!
ANOTHER DAY ANOTHER TALENDED BULID THAT IS AN MASTERPIECE!!!❤❤❤😭😭😭✨
Absolutely beautiful!!

I don't think it's too much at all, looks so good! I love it!
Aww, I was expecting lots of plants indoors too 😆
Mental health has been rough recently and I literally countdown to your videos being posted everyday
This is a beautiful eco house build! Great job lilsimsie ❤
Love!!! Eco lifestyle is one of my favorite packs.
I love this house so much! I just got sims 4, and I've gotten so much inspiration from you(:
Simsie remember the farm you built a couple of years ago? Well you should totally do it again with cottage living! It would be such a fun series!
ooooo I didn't even think to use the camper kit lights with the toddler stuff poles! amazing!
Plants are such a savior for builds- I have so much custom content plants just so I have some really good choices for builds-

I usually gravitate towards cottages but there's something about Eco Lifestyle builds like this that are just so appealing.
I understand the roof garden now 😭 I love this! 🤣
I love a grass roof covered in the actual grass or flowers! Loads of my builds have them!
this is one of my favorites of your builds! so cute
I love this build ♥️😍 I think you did an amazing job simsie!
Eco Living is on sale right now, but I bought Snowy Escape about two weeks ago, and I want Growing together LOL.
