Build’n’Share Challenge #62 ZeroDoxy
ZeroDoxy
One of the best parts of this job was how frequently you got to meet new, and interesting people. Your latest client, Mallory Abbot, is no exception.
A short young lady with a cheerful smile, accented by a lip ring, sits across from you. She bubbles with an excitement and enthusiasm that couldn’t help but charm you. Repeatedly she brushes her remarkably long hair, dark brown with two blonde streaks in the front, back over her shoulders.
“So, yeah. This is my first real home. I’ve always lived in apartments and I’m so looking forward to being able to stay in my own place for longer than a minute.” She said happily. “I’m new to the town and I’ve heard from a TON of people that you’re the person to see when it comes to starting out.”
You smile with pleasure, always delighted to hear that people are talking about your work. “I might have a little bit of experience with it.”
She giggles, “Oh jeez.”
“So what would you like in a home?” You inquire, clicking your pen.
“Well, I don’t have a big budget. But I’d really love to have 2 bedrooms. I have 3 cats, so I need room for them to roam. I have a few friends who might move in with me later, so I need space for the house to get bigger. I also like to cook so a decent kitchen would be great. I’m a streamer so I need an office.”
“A streamer?” you ask, a little confused. The pictures that pop up in your head are…odd to say the least.
“I live stream games on Twitch.tv under the name Zer0Doxy. I also make videos for Youtube. People come and watch me play and hangout in chat. Its how I pay my bills.” She explains with the patience of someone whose had to explain this a lot. Then proudly she states, “My chat is the best chat in the world. Anyway, I need a great office where I can stream and make videos. Here’s the complicated part: my haunted computer just finally fried itself. I need a new one to fit into the budget.”
“And what exactly is your budget?”
Real Talk: We’re doing something really unique for you guys this time around. Zer0Doxy is an actual live streamer who plays a lot of Sims, as well as other games. We’ve made arrangements with her to have the builds submitted for this challenge featured on one of her live streams! We will be sure to post when the live stream will be so that everyone can be there as she looks at your creations.
Because its a little different, PLEASE BE SURE TO SAY WHETHER YOU WANT YOUR CREATION SHOWN ON STREAM OR NOT ON YOUR ENTRY FORM. If you don’t say one way or another, it will be counted in the Do Not Show on Stream category.

ENTRY DETAILS: (Be sure to tell us about your entry) I wanted something I hadn't really tried before, so this is a modern(ish) home with an over terrace that opens to the first floor, but also to the world outside (don't worry it's covered!) Also she said she had kitties, so I wanted to build a kitty wall in the living room for the cats to run up and down. if in the future the house needs to be expanded, it's easily done by taking out the back wall of the bottom bedroom and expanding out from there. Lots of room left on the lot to do it with. Hardest part was staying under the 20k.

On my 4th or 5th try, I settled on this cute little comfy starter home for our buyer. Modeled after a tiny house, more space has been added on to accommodate for our buyers needs. Including an extra bedroom for streaming, office space or guests. Plenty of room for the little kitties to run around and for the buyer to add on to the house later on, if she wanted to. I added a great modern and chef worthy kitchen, for cooking, baking and starting fires. I did add on the house perks: fast internet, chefs kitchen and haunted(for fun .

Food quality is prioritised in the kitchen with space funds used to improve appliances with units chosen that will compliment the rest of the lot in the colourful blend themed lot. There is space to expand if friends move in as the lot is the largest the budget would allow.

ENTRY DETAILS: I've included a lot of notes on the pictures themselves but I went with a modern feel in the desert. Since it's a starter I wanted to give it a little bit of the "found objects" look to the decor, since that's often what you get when you first start out. I chose to do both the Sims 3 and the Sims 4 version of this challenge to see the two builds side by side. While I have not tried to exactly replicate each of them in decor they are the same floor plan and same concept. The pics show pictures taken from the same approximate angle from each build side by side for comparison. The computer in this build while inexpensive does give the area the "Inspired Trait" which I thought might be a plus for a Vlogger and I chose the Sunny Aspect/ Great Soil (for when you need to get outside)/ Home Studio traits. Some thoughtless sim has left a box of garbage on the edge of your lot- still one man's trash is another's treasure. Try going through it and maybe you'll start life in this starter just a little bit better than you thought!

ENTRY DETAILS: I created a suburban home that features a beautiful curb view with a "garage" door. Areas suited for optimal expansion have been cleverly marked with terrain paint and landscaping. This two-bedroom one-bath Southeast Asian style home uses white and black colors with wood accents. Features a wonderful kitchen, spacious office, and open-plan living room with dining area. Main bedroom has an cozy little corner designated for cats to rest in comfortably.

ENTRY DETAILS: I've included a lot of notes on the pictures themselves but I went with a modern feel in the desert. Since it's a starter I wanted to give it a little bit of the "found objects" look to the decor, since that's often what you get when you first start out. I chose to do both the Sims 3 and the Sims 4 version of this challenge to see the two builds side by side. While I have not tried to exactly replicate each of them in decor they are the same floor plan and same concept. The pics show pictures taken from the same approximate angle from each build side by side for comparison. The computer in this build while inexpensive does give the area the "Inspired Trait" which I thought might be a plus for a Vlogger and I chose the Sunny Aspect/ Great Soil (for when you need to get outside)/ Home Studio traits. Some thoughtless sim has left a box of garbage on the edge of your lot- still one man's trash is another's treasure. Try going through it and maybe you'll start life in this starter just a little bit better than you thought!

ENTRY DETAILS: I made a modern bungalow on a 30x20 plot to leave plenty room for expansion later. It has an open living area with the office at one end of the house and the bedrooms at the other.

ENTRY DETAILS: Goldeneye, named after the touches of gold in this modern art deco/retro starter, is an open plan design with one bathroom and two bedrooms. Room for expansion to first floor if necessary or even to the sides of the rear, which currently houses the bin storage on one side and an outdoor dining area on the other, thus providing plenty of outdoor space for the cats to roam.
