    I genuinely don't understand how deli always makes her starter homes look so beautiful and bright and actually trending meanwhile maxis uses like 4 pieces of furniture and it always looks so depressing and drab

      I think they also have a limit of the number of items they can use (I don't know why but I saw it on some of the videos where UA-camrs built for packs and they said they had a limit)

      @alyssaayy Рік тому +46

      basically what others have said already, maxis builds are sparse because they need to be able to run smoothly on PCs that can only meet the minimum requirements to run the game (James Turner explained this in his builds for the werewolf pack)

    You're exactly right deli. The sims team should update at least some of their houses. They have the resources to hire real builders to make these house more practical and useful. It'll be a way to update the game without a big patch.

    I just renovated this and made it a very open, cozy little home for a young woman into books and herbs and everything. The little left room I opened up and put curtains to a cozy bedroom and the kitchen is in the back with a sittingspace build into shelves in the front. It worked out very well but I had to extend the left to the back for a bathroom. It's one of my favourite homes on the small side now and I think the lot is really nice in and of itself.

    As a Scandi I would say it looks very modern Scandi so good job (the panels), because I have started to see new apartment buildings outside Stockholm looking wonderful like that, my aunt lives next door to houses like that and I love them, reminds me of the houses up in skiing places.
    Otherwise we mostly have coloured houses, but wood is correct (if you don't go down to Skåne, where bricks are more common, at least in Trelleborg, where my husband is from, and even Gotland and Öland doesn't use wood as much).

Last night I built on the empty block next to this. I used an old 1950's carpentry book that has how to build an entire house in it to build a lovely midcentury home that has the vibes of this beautiful build. I will definitely be building your home next door. Keep up the amazing work!

    Green roofing isn't entirely unheard of, but it's more expensive than a regular one so you won't see them a lot outside of high end bespoke designs. Otherwise, we use different kinds of greenery than you would in the UK. I've seen a few new apartment buildings lately that incorporate greenery on the outside and a roof garden, which seems to be a bit more common than a full green roof.
