Living rooms for me. That's where most of my households' activity happens, and it's where most of the random easels, pianos, etc. get added as the household earns more money. I like having it look like a normal family's house, not perfectly decorated, but vibrant and fun.

I love designing my kitchens and if they are a kitchen only or a kitchen/diner which is popular in the uk.

I really hate all building and buying, it's a chore for me. I'd much rather be in live mode.

I love the kitchens with the washer/dryer included in some cases, different shapes with the auto counter off, really enjoy seeing what kind of arrangement looks best. Since all my houses are open floor plans, like CK I usually have living/dining/kitchen combo with the only rooms being the bedrooms and baths. I can honestly say I love decorating much more than landscaping...gah!

I like bedrooms, it's fun to show my sims' personalities in them. I like doing kid's and teen's bedrooms the best, it's fun to use a lot of bright colors and clutter items.

I feel like the kitchen/dining room is my favorite room to flesh out in my builds because it's usually the room that I renovate first when I save up enough money to make my sims' houses look better. I finish decorating it and I find that it's usually the room that I base the other rooms' styles mostly off of.

Seems I enjoy decorating entire apartments. <3 I am in the process of renovating all, or at least nearly all, of San Myshuno....I think what makes apartments so fun for me is that I can concentrate on the interior decorating, and making a fairly small space personal to each Sim/family.

I totally agree! In my previous save, San Myshuno was my main focus, and I redesigned most of the apartments, sometimes just decorating the rooms, but sometimes tearing down all the walls and coming up with a much better layout. Like you, I found it fun to personalize a small space, and I liked the challenge of fitting everything in.

All of the above except for living rooms! I redecorate the interiors of gallery and Maxis houses a lot, so I've found joy in decorating every room... except the living room. I don't know why but I can never figure out where to put anything in it!

That's so funny! When I need inspiration, I'll just use google images to find something cool about a room I want to recreate, and the I'll build around that. It's fun to look up different styles of interior decor, depending on who the family is. Maybe that will help you the next time you're stuck on a living room?

I like kitchens because there is a ton of kitchen clutter to use, and I have fun with odd shapes and nooks for all kinds of things. I can go rustic, modern, victorian, it's no wonder they're my favorite room.

Yes! That's exactly how I feel!

I like bedrooms, especially kids’ rooms, because they have the most personality. I often further personalize them by adding things like birth certificates, collectibles, selfies, and school projects.

The twin children in one of my families had a snowglobe collection that their mom got for the, one at a time, by rummaging through boxes in San Myshuno. It was a really nice touch to the room. I never thought of personalizing with school projects. That's such a good idea!

I'm not sure why... I just like putting the kitchens together... :o

Wow! Your kitchens are amazing! I love your use of clutter--makes it look so real.

Mainly because I like decorating the kitchen but I like landscaping more. I find terrain painting to be sort of relaxing in a weird way.

That's so funny because terrain painting stresses me out. I can never quite get it to look right or to look the way I want it. I know it's pretty basic, but for some reason, I have a problem with it, LOL. I try to do it as little as possible.
