Do you customise worlds before playing?

I never change anything when I first start a save, then I gradually add what my sims need as I go along. For example, I'm playing in Dragon Valley right now, and I've added a few items to McCafferty's Pub: a buffet table, a couple of stereos, a Sim Gnubb set and a fire pit outside, and a bunch of nectar racks, some that offer tasting and others that allow purchases. Now most of my sims' parties happen there if they don't want to host at home.
There's a mod to add the Late Night professional bar interactions to regular bars so I didn't need to redesign the whole layout:

I also edited the gym after installing the Skylight Studio store venue. Now the room with glass walls has ballet barres and the dance floor, so it's a proper dance studio. And the bathrooms have a couple of the public shower stations, which allows sims to shower without getting embarrassed when someone walks in on them. It took a few tries to get the layout correct, but everything is usable.

For worlds where the game adds EP venues automatically, I use this mod (Sims Asylum, free registration required) to prevent their placement so I can add what I want when I want it. In some worlds and saves, I just don't have a need for certain lot types.
