Ok here are some pictures of my interior for the practise challenge. I didn't upload it because I'm not quite happy with the exterior. But if anyone wants it, I'll upload it.
My practice challenge Part 3
Let's start with an Overview.

As you can see I used different colors of the same floor type to create a custom floor design. Or in the case of the master bedroom to create my own rug.
Master Bedroom

I tried something new for me with the design for the bed, by carefully moving it into the counters. I used a contrasting red color for the walls in the nook created by the counters. The final touch to the wall is created by those nifty stickers. If placed carefully you can create several different designs with them (like a flower, see the picture of Smurfette's room from my Schlumpfhausen built)
I filled the counter space with some books, a family picture and a clock (I really wish they had some more modern alarm clocks).
The window sill was created with two shelfs. Instead of a dresser I added some shelves with clothing and a shoe rack.

I placed two counters in the square between the tow beds in order to create some space for a flower lamp, some books and picture frames. On the wall I got creative with some of the wall pictures to create something new.
The items on the dresser were placed with MOO so they wont snap to the default spaces on the counter.

I added another wall to the bath to "hide" the shower behind. And cluttered up the counter next to the sink as well as the two shelves above the toilet.
Personally I feel the bathroom looks a bit bigger than it actually is because of the hidden shower.

I used some seatings to create my own surface below the television, this makes it unique but also makes them unusable as seating ;)
The living area was seperated from the office with the help of bamboo and a fence.

The office itself was created with two bookshelves and some file cabinets surrounding the desk.

For the kitchen I added some counters on the wall next to the fridge and cluttered them up with a coffee machine, some decorations and debug items. With the help of MOO some were even added to the emptier parts of the cabinet (don't look at it from a lower angle, the bottles in the middle part of the cabinet don't fit the height of the shelf in it)

For dining I created an island, which is connected to the stove but still seperated from it by a glas fence.

The counter next to the stove got cluttered with some vegetables and herbs, to make it look like someone is preparing food here.
This is how I had originally planned the stove area. But my Sim stopped cooking once it was nearly done and had to be placed on a plate. With some testing I found out that she couldn't place it on the counters. Why she didn't want to place it on the free one right behind her is a miracle.
So instead of using the end counters I ended up using normal counters.
