Do you guys use floor plans when building houses?
This is something I've never done in previous Sims games, but I'm going to start. I think it'll be a lot of fun!

No utility room because there is no hot water tank, furnace, or switch box. No laundry, so no need for a laundry room. No need for a mud room without coats or muddy boots. Kids don't seem to mind sharing bedrooms, so I can stuff them in together for smaller homes. Sims use dressers instead of closets. No need for a cleaning closet either, etc.

I tend to put all of those thins in anyway. I know it's not needed, but I think it looks nice anyway.
I usually will use house plans just for the outside and use my own imagination for the rooms I put in. It's really fun building, but sometimes I just get stuck when trying to come up with something.
