Windows/doors/build details

As someone who mainly builds I am desperate for new windows, doors and build details. I thought I'd post some visuals of the kind of things we really need to add variety to builds.

Sliding patio doors - would be great if left partially open.

Fold out doors - perfect for industrial/modern builds.

A modern style eight pane window.

A less ornate shutter window in a wider variety of colours.

Rectangular windows that are a medium size rather than the small three pane or full wall sized we have now with partially open options. In neutral colour ways.

    Overview of style. It would be great to have more neutral and muted tons of siding such as sage green, tan, grey, browns, grayish blues.

    I agree the game is totally lacking in design aspects! You’re definutely not the only one looking for better build stuff. A lot of these already exist as downloads by CC creators. Try googling what you’re looking for and adding “sims 4 CC” to the end of it. There are some fantastic creators out there. You’ll have to download them and put them into a folder in your game files. I’ve never gotten a virus or anything from this. I have over 2,000 CC files in my game. It’s a very popular way to make up for the lack of good objects in the regular game.

    I basically don’t use any non-CC objects, wallpapers, floors, etc. because they’re all so ugly. But until they get their act together and start designing more attractive objects, I’ll download CC instead of purchasing “stuff packs,” etc.
