Build Showcase: Lyoufln

Ok, so this first house is called "The Everyday." In my neck of the woods, there are many houses that

brightly coloured, especially in coastal communities. No one bats an eye if there's a sunshine yellow house with a purple door.

I built a house that reminded me of a home that a person in my area would grow up in. I wanted to experiment with lots of plants!

I'm very proud of this house. It took me awhile to make this but I haven't had a chance to play with it yet. There is a pool in the backyard, it's just a little hard to see here. There is no basement, but one could definitely be added. The only packs used are the base game + parenthood. I didn't use any cheats either (does making objects larger or smaller count for cheats?)

It's available for download under Lyoufln in the gallery, if you like it! :blush:

It is great that you have set up a showcase thread for your builds :)
It was very nice reading the background details for " The Everyday" :) The exterior design of the home is very nice! Very nice blue and white colour scheme of the home , both the exterior and interior. The blue open shutter windows are nice touches in the home, and the flowers look pretty through the outdoors areas. Very nice fenced backyard area , for sims to enjoy cooking meals on the BBQ and eating the food in the sunshine at the picnic table. They will enjoy growing plants in the gardening patch. Kids will have fun playing on the monkey bars. Very nice layout and furnishing of the interior of the home! The blue colour of the walls and the yellow coloured furnishings looks very nice together. Very nice kitchen nook! The basket of eggs and fruit bowl are homely touches on the counter. Nice windows dining nook for sims to enjoy eating meals with sunshine coming in onto them. The tree prints on the wall give a great look to the dining area! The coat stand is homely. Very nice sofa seat sitting area in the living room. Sims will enjoy resting there watching tv or reading a book in front of the fire. The toys are a nice touch on the floor. Nice study desk area for sims to enjoy sitting at the table using the computer.
It is a very nice home! :)

Thank you @rosemow. I put a lot of time and effort into this :)

Ok, so this little house is called "I's the B'y" (Have you heard of the tune?) I thought a lot about homes in my region to make this because I like to build what I see in my everyday life. There aren't many bright colours to chose from for siding, but I thought this green would suffice. This home is pretty small, but a 2nd floor and/or more basement space could be added (I probably will if I get to play with this house). There are 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom.

Features include a workbench, BBQ, garden patch, card table, fiddle for jigging a tune, and a fireplace with a chimney.

I's the B'y is available for download on the Gallery :)

I's the B'y is a very nice homely house for sims to enjoy living in :) The green colour of the exterior lools very nice. The lavender either sides of the front steps and the flower box windows looks pretty! The bird bath is a nice touch there. Very nice outdoors areas! Sims will have enjoy playing on the monkey bars, growing plants in the fenced garden area and enjoy crafting on the woodwork table in the outdoors air. The red flower cart is a nice touch, and the sunflowers are sunny for sims to see! Very nice layout of the interior. It is nice that the bedrooms are in the basement level. Very nice kitchen and dining area.The pictures look great on the dining area wall! The three colours of the dining chairs gives a nice look to the area. The green colour of the kitchen windows looks very nice. Sims will enjoy listening to gramophone music whilst cooking meals. Very nice fireplace sofa seat sitting nook, for sims to relax in front of the fire. The hat and coat shelf are a homely touch beside the front door, and wall plates and books on the fireplace ledge are nice touches.
It is a very nice home :)

Thanks @rosemow. I think my favourite new building thing in the Sims 4 is making objects bigger or smaller, so I've been experimenting with it and plants. I should try to make a small park sometime. I could use lots of plants then!

Making items larger is great to use in builds! It can be used very creatively! :)

Ok, so this place is listed as "Cheap little house." I wasn't going to post this on the gallery because I just built it for some of my Sims to move into when they grew up. However, I thought that maybe someone else would want to use it as well. It fits a 20x15 lot and is less than 15,000 Simoleons. It could be a good starter home, and there is space for expansion (and more decorations too!

Cheap Little Home is a great starter home ! :) Very nice curved roofing ! The left and right open shutter windows are a nice touch. The layout of the interior is nice. It is a great home to expand on as the sims gain more money :)

Ok, so this house is called "Living the Dream" It'd be great for 1-2 Sims, but you could add a basement or even a third floor if you needed more space. It'd be a great place to have some friends over for a barbecue and pool night in the summertime!
