Finally fixed all the pathing issues in my Parisian house! Ended up actually having to redo a lot of things, pathing is much more complex than I ever realised haha. I also got rid of a lot of random clutter and lights in an effort to make the interior feel more natural. Also the waterfall does not look like what it does in the pictures, had to replace the rocks with plants because they wouldn’t place correctly, but it yet looks nice I feel :)
Anyway, here is the Gallery Link: When Baroque Met Modern
Pictures below!
Story of the house:
When Ms. #Baroque met Mr. #Modern it was amour at first sight! But they couldn't decide on a style, thus a compromise: buy a Baroque house and replace the inside with ultra-#contemporary furnishings! Who wants #17thcentury appliances anyway? Ms. Baroque, though, couldn’t give up her beloved style and snuck in a #Parisian #woman-cave! #noCC #French #Renaissance #mansion #family #flowerbed #undergroundpool #hometheatre #balcony #openfloorplan #waterfall #statues #playtested #winecellar #attic
Because women can have man-caves too, but just classier! Now, however, the quirky couple has moved to the French country and their home is yours to explore and take care of! There are many small details to delight your sims in ever nook and cranny. This is likely the most detailed build I have ever attempted. I wanted to go for a clashing styles theme, modelled after the many old buildings in Europe that have recently been renovated inside. In my pictures I placed the lot in the middle of an urban area, however, I imagine it would work well in a more country lot as a decadent maisonette. Enjoy!
Note that you do NOT have to have MOO on to place the lot. I tried both with and without and everything places the same way :)
(Apologies again for all the pictures, I’m trying to work on my picture taking abilities in general, with lighting, angle, zoom, height, location, etc. Feels like I’m getting a tad better since last time haha).

Front and rear roof accents, these were definitely my favourite part of the entire build, just adore that European style of tympanums. Can also see the balconies here with a sitting and meditation area, quiet places to get away from all the bustle going on outside. The front accent I call the Winged Ballerina, and the rear the Winged Knight haha (yes I got super excited when I saw an item that could work as wings from Dine Out, and could work as waves! I couldn't decide between wings or waves so now they are wings with ships sailing on them haha):

Overview of basement floor. This part is quite cool because this is where the "woman-cave" is haha, which is the only Baroque style indoors. I created a path which splits to Baroque on one side and modern on the other, which I felt symbolised the build overall quite well haha. And of course there's the wine cellar, which is always good lol:

Anyway, so sorry for the giant wall of text and pictures! I went a bit crazy with the tab mode and general excitement over finally finishing and fixing pathing haha.
