Hi, Sandraelle! Your creations looks very pretty, great work with the architecture and the landscaping, and I especially like your interiors! :)
recommended everything in your studio

Wow, thanks so much for recommending my whole studio imoger, I am very appreciative. Landscaping my builds have always been a challenge for me because I never know where to start with it and I don't think I'm very good at it. But thank you for your nice comments. :-)

That really turned out well. I love the modern architecure of your build and the purples and greys really compliments it. Rec'd already.

Glad you like! I like doing moderns, but I tend to get too cluttery and it's hard for me to stick to the minimalist style. I was glad that I chose that color scheme though since it went so well with the contemporary look. Thx again for the rec!

Nice modern build! I like the exterior and that purple looks lovely! Recommended. :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

Thank you so much Yanti!!! I think I will stay away from the purple color scheme for awhile, as my last 3 builds have featured those colors, lol. :D

I saw this in the "Color My World" contest! It is Gorgeous! Love the flow and color mixture is perfect. Beautiful job!! :thumbup: Have a Fantastic day!! Hugs :D

Thank you so much for the lovely comments Terry. I can't wait to see all the builds in that contest as it's so fun to see what people can create. And thank you for the friend request. :mrgreen: Hope you have a nice day too.

Hi, Sandrelle! I think you and I both started actually sharing creations around the same time. I had never paid much attention to the forums before then, either, lol.

You have a lot of beautiful builds, and some neat ideas I may have to borrow, like the shelved closet in your Blue Ridge nursery. I like all the bright colors in Casa de la Playa, and I still love your Palo Verde. Your community lots are awesome, too.

Oh, and all those cute 10 x 10 lots you’ve done; I can’t help but be impressed! I think the smallest I’ve managed is 20 x 20, and only because it was a starter. :lol:

As far as your Plumalicious Potpourri (love the name, btw; and the tiling around the pool does like a bit like scattered potpourri to me!), I think it’s gorgeous! I’m a fan of plum shades paired with grey to begin with, but combined with the modern architecture it gives it a very posh vibe. Love the library with the little reading loft (that's where I'd spend most of my time! :mrgreen: ), as well as that fab movie theater. Already rec’d and faved. :)

Why, thank you, thank you Star! I didn't realize that we started uploading to the Exchange around the same time. I've always liked all of your builds too. Yeah, I'm not too good on starters, I can never manage to stay within the budget (kind of like in RL, lol). I appreciate all of your nice comments, as I never know if others will like what I build--I am my worst critic. Thanks again! :)

CARRINGTON COURT CONDOS, 34x29 Residential apartment lot, 11/15/12

Unfortunately, my studio became full and had exceeded the quota limit, so had to start deleting some of my studio items - this is one of them. :(

I've made apartment complexes before but just for my own fun and never tried the whole room marker thing because I never took the time to learn about it. So this was my first time building an apartment that Sims can actually live in. This was created for Seascape's House Hunters competition (modeled after the HGTV House Hunters TV show). The challenge was to build a 1 bedroom apartment/condo with specific criteria for under $100,000.

This looks just beautiful, Sandraele! Loved your storytelling, loved the hip and chic decor!

Rec'ing now!

You have really thought of so many details in this build, combining modern sleekness and trendiness with older historic touches. And all throughout elegance really streams through everywhere. :) It was so very good to read about all the different rooms/areas and your story/reasons behind choosing those particular furnishings/layout of the room/ materials. It is a really great guided tour of it. The colours you have used really fit the build. great work with making the basement a gym fitness centre/games area. Sophistication is so much a part of this buld. Great build...and I am sure there will be many tenants clamouring to live there! :)

Thanks so much Taryn! I'm glad you think it's hip and chic, as that is the look I was going for. Sometimes it's hard for me to get the decorating styles just right; what I start out with in my head doesn't always translate in the end. And thanks for the rec! :-)
