I invariably provide some way for my Sims to get essential sustenance on community lots. Virtually all the Maxis ones have grills. If I don't provide a grill, I'll often provide a CC vending machine. |
Probably because sims leave dirty plates all around and they go off.

It's not a maxis light but a CC light that looks similar. I'll chage it to the maxis one cause it's annoying and I thought it had to do with the angle. As far as I know sims go home when their mood is bad and they can't fix it on that lot, plus I added AL vending machines if they're starving. It's also ment to be a lower income low funded part where they don't have a lot of "socialist community" stuff

I don't know if you can post just interior design in this thread, but this is one of the wackiest rooms I've ever designed and one of my favourites. It's for some cutesy Sims.
ISN'T IT ADORABLE?!
It's very busy and you can't quite see what's going on but it's done on purpose. I love it.
I had gone hunting down cute CC in order to make this, which was worth it. You can see Mr. Rod Humble in one of the screenshots, sorry about that.
Cats are the cutest creatures. And the most stubborn.

This by far has been the hardest bedroom decorating because how specific it was. I'm usually a beige with an accent type of person but now I decided to go out of my comfort zone. I have a alternative couple and wanted a gothic bedroom for them. I didn't want to look like as if vampires live there, nor to be too granny-ish, nor too Victorian, nor to look like they're filthy rich cause they're almost broke. I wanted something that looks like they shop in antique stores, cozy and romantic. I looked up something on Pinterest and my choice for dark patterns was scarce and I have way too much grandma patterns. I primarily wanted a dark green aesthetic but I didn't have enough material for that. Oh well, this lilac/brownish satin is also beautiful. Still love your stuff Droopsi! Hopefully I won't have to do it again.
Edit: I changed the pillow pattern and lighting

Here you go, this is a mesh and you have lace recolors below. I wish it had more recolors

I recently found out about the Palast der Republik in Berlin and I immediately knew I had to build something inspired by it. I don't know what this will be, it has absolutely nothing inside it yet, but the shell is done. And it already costs upwards of 230k.

Ooh, I like that. It could be a great modern art gallery, or you could just pretend it is an office and keep it as hood deco.
I use the sims as a psychology simulator...

My newest home(only ground floor cause I was too lazy to furnish the upper floor too)
Back to me acting like an interior designer...This is a ground floor of the Wan house in Riverblossom Hills. I absolutely love this how and how flexible it is for decorating. It's big enough for a proper furnishing but small enough to look cozy.
+bonus the couple living there. It was the guy's hard earned money for being a honor student at college and quickly climbing to lvl 8 at the Business career.

May I ask where can I find that kitchen set? And the windows, too.

The laptop I use for sims 2 is not here with me so I'm naming stuff off the top of my head
Here's the kitchen (someone made more recolors) https://beautifulnerdkitty.tumblr.c...counter-counter
I got both of the windows from a lot and went to download the rest of the set so I don't remember the names. What I do remember is that the house was the Jodelie Jodelie version of the Wan house where the kitchen windows are included.
As for the rest of the furniture, I managed to find the couch set https://sims2artists.com/index.php?topic=5620.0 . As for the rest, look up Pixelry (recovered downloads too), Fake Blood and Kacicka, those are my go to creators for this kind of modern brown style, then you'll end up in a rabbit hole of similar smaller creators.

@moonlight__ I like your style of decorating, it is very classy!
I've been having fun recreating a very old hood of mine!
Not much in it so far, just a few of the key community lots and a couple of houses. It's purely Maxis so a bit basic!

Thank you! It's great practice for any renovation I do in real life and for my hypothetical home/apartment one day
I have a lot of unposted interiors of house from MTS and grungy builds but I've moved on from that. I tried to post my stuff here but I had problems with the mods. Apparently they tell me to include every single object and recolor in the description which, just by looking at the picture, would've been a hassle to write down.

You only need to include custom objects/recolours, not Maxis. It's to both credit the creators and to give downloaders somewhere to go if the item has problems in their game. Or, if the item doesn't package with the lot then people need to know where to get it from.

That would be easy if my builds weren't absolutely crammed with CC, just look at my last picture, and that's only the ground floor. That's probably the reason why MTS usually has CC free lots or with very little CC, but I respect how MTS stuff feels the safest for downloading. I'll try my best next time.

I think it's mostly because MTS wants proper respect to be given to creator policies, and they want the person who made the wallpaper to get some credit along with the person who made the house.
Personally, I would much prefer downloading lots that have minimal CC (maybe one or two bits that were chosen especially, or perhaps pieces made specifically for the lot). That way I can tailor the lot to my sim or world without having to add too much CC to my game just to make it work. I do like it when creators show images of how you could decorate the lot, as well as recommended CC... also I love to see people's CC-full lots in these forums so that I can get ideas and discover new CC!
