In fact, beds and furniture with different colored parts are my pet peeve. In TS2, they had set swatches for each individual part that you could mix and match anyway you wanted. You want a bed to have the dark wood finish with a white sheet set? You got it! Want to change it later to a red one? Bam! You could do that too! In TS4, it's all-inclusive set swatches and you can't do anything about it and it drives me mad! I mean, they didn't even have the courtesy to give us, say, multiple swatches of each bed frame color with each of the bedding options swapped in. The amount of times I've had to settle for complimentary/contrasting colors because I couldn't keep a consistent color theme thanks to the "one swatch per combo" thing is just staggering!
Framework vs soft furnishings.
And not just for beds, but for dining chairs, sofas, arm chairs, any table with a cloth on it.
A lot of stuff comes in a red and black combo, and a black and grey combo. But what if you want green and black? Or blue and black? Or pink and black?
And the video is right. Windows and doors need an upgrade. EVERY style should come in basic white, black, light wood, medium wood and dark wood. It currently feels as though they had multiple people working on the various 'sets', and never bothered to check that they used the same colours, everything feels incomplete and disjointed. As a designer, it's very aggravating. Didn't they hire people who have any concept of continuity in design? Didn't they have a design coordinator?
