Sim: Douglas Curtis, III; Mansion Baron, Business Savvy, Romantic, Self-Assured, Loves the Outdoors. What a fun character! He was so well described that I felt like I 'knew' him and had a blast poking (gentle) fun at him. Some of my picture captions began venturing into 'story territory' so lol, feel free to disregard my goofy commentary and thanks for letting me play with your character. :)
Lot: The Curtis Penthouse

Description: When I saw the word 'penthouse' used for the second challenge, I got really excited. I thought it would be fun to see how much I could
strrreeetttcchhh three floors to try to make the building look like a highrise, so even though the challenge became 'penthouse-like', I decided to stick with my original plan; the lofty views from the windows and balcony of the penthouse were something I just couldn't give up! Obviously, with the budget, I wasn't able to fully build the entire building, so I did something a little weird here -- since Sims 4 gives us the ability to build 'floating' houses, I decided to build just the stairs leading up to the penthouse for the first two levels. That enabled me to stay within budget AND have my lofty views. :) I've shared this to the gallery as-is for the challenge, but I've also shared a version ('Luxury Penthouse') that has the entire building with the first two floors empty and ready for people to customize as they see fit -- maybe build a big gym and bar or an office-y looking space, art studio, etc.

modthesims.info/download.php?t=533372ETA: Omg, dying here. I'm looking at the items now available with the new buydebug cheat added today and thinking of how much I needed some different 'artifacts' for Douglas' penthouse. I'm not going to redecorate and rephotograph now, but it's so tempting....
