Today I built "I dream of lilacs". In the garden outside crocuses are blooming, I felt springtime!

That's what this house is about. I wanted a consistent coloscheme and an elegant, yet cozy design. I experimented a bit with fireplaces as well.

Some of my older works... Well, uh, I had a kind of "victorian phase" with the Vampire EP. I used to build these houses like there was no tomorrow... :)

I came up with something new today. I discussed with my husband last night our retirement in a couple of ages... *sigh* and we dreamed about where we could live. We thought of a vacation once we took in the south of France where we stumbeled on a hike over an abondoned farmhouse.

It pretty much looked like the one I built... So grab your elderly Sims and give them a nice new (old) home in the countryside. There a plenty of little seeting areas in the garden, a walkout basement with a bar and a winecellar, a pool and even an old converted barn which functions as a guesthouse....

Viva Las Vegas!

I felt a bit like cookie cutter today, so I tried to build something after a real life house and adapted a Floor plan. Since Oasis Springs always feels like Vegas to me I started a new development: Gardens at Denali.

Here comes House No 1

Gallery Link: Gardens at Denali Vers. 1

A modern traditional home. Makes a perfect home to a young family. Large open concept living/dining/kitchen, a games room, a half bath and a small patio. Upstairs a good sized master suite, two kidsrooms that share a hall bath.
