#BnS107 - Fall Designer ShowdownThe deadline for this challenge is 21st November 2018It’s that time again - time for you to show off your awesome design skills! This round, we’ve taken a base game house and stripped it down completely - no roof, no siding, no flooring, no wall coverings and no terrain paint. It’s a blank canvas for you to completely decorate to your vision.
Well, almost completely blank that is… we’ve left a few items behind that you have to use in your design. The items must be used as-is - no substitutions, no changing the colors, and they must remain in the room in which you find them. You can, however, move the objects within the room as you see fit. Additionally, the items should help inform or inspire your design choices in that room in some way.

THE BRIEFAll walls, windows and doors must remain in their places. No, you can’t move or delete any walls, windows or doors.

You can change the color of any windows, doors or arches.
You can change the style of any stairs but not the size or location.

ENTRY DETAILS: Wanting to live in an established community, the Simms bought an older home on Elm Street. They loved the established trees in the front yard and building new just didn't give them that option. They did not, however, love the outdated look of the home (inside and out) so they completely gutted and remodeled the entire house, giving it a contemporary, modern feel.

ENTRY DETAILS: I changed the side of the front of the home. I added porches, more windows, and doors. Upstairs I created closets in each bedroom. I created a traditional looking outside, but the interior is full of comfort for a large family. The house itself has fast internet, Gnomes, and On Ley Line, insuring twins are mainly born. The two children's rooms reflect this, with a toddlers room with two beds and an older children/pre-teens room for two more siblings. A large yard,wrap around porches/decks, and two balconies all provide space for a large family to sleep, eat, play, and relax together!
**please forgive the outdoor pictures being in build mode. I started this world in winter and had finished the house before realizing I could not change the season it was in**

ENTRY DETAILS: High on the cliffs of Salvadorado is a house perfect for that retired couple. If you have all the time in the world and hate blowing winter snows Hana Lee is your paradise.

Over time many have stayed here and left their mark. Either with the art on the walls or decor. Will you make your next mark? (Thanks for extension!)

ENTRY DETAILS: Based on the arches I decided to go for a Spanish style house (then I realized it was the original style of the house). So, I added a couple of porches wrapping around the first floor to add some more interest in the house shape and in order to keep the house cooler avoiding some sun and creating ventilated and covered zones to spend some nice time outdoors. The house is ready for 6 people (one being a toddler). The garden is low maintenance, adapted to the dry desert weather, but in the backyard there’s plenty of water in a fishing pond and a pool.
