European Architecture Tour: Paris

Inspired by the real life "La Maison Rose" in Montmartre, Paris, this small cluster of buildings are perfect for whatever tickles your fancy. Built as a real French restaurant (menu curated to fit the theme) La Maison Rose offers four indoor tables and a series of small bistro tables outside to live a true Parisian fantasy. The lot can also be used as a fully functional cafe thanks to the little take away coffee shop around the back of the lot. With a few small tables outside and a barista bar inside, it's a cute meeting place. If businesses aren't your thing, the entire lot can also be used as a residence. Move in a large family or a bunch of random Sims and pretend you get to have your own apartment building! The lot features three apartment complexes. One is modern and luxe, featuring 1 to 3 bedroom apartments while the other too offer studio apartments, both modern and more traditional and run down. All apartments are unfurnished but come with painted walls and carpets. You can view the floor-plans below and hope and pray that they will one day allow us to have apartment buildings in other worlds! Just place a mailbox down if you'd like to use as a residential lot. Turn on MOO to place. No CC on entire lot, just a few debug items.

European Architecture Tour: Tuscany

A beautiful converted Tuscan farmhouse (or Podere) inspired by the many pauper-turned-prince homes of this Italian region. Known for using raw, local materials such as stone and wood, Tuscan architecture has become so popular, it is often seen outside of Italy to display luxury without being garish. This two bedroom home comes complete with a huge kitchen, plenty of outdoor space, a lovely living room and not one but TWO pools!!! (one of which is disguised as an ancient Etruscan watering trough or, in Italian, Fonte). The house is very much inspired by my childhood home in Volterra, Tuscany as well as many of the homes in the area.
