Thought I'd share my Calmwood Mental Hospital

It only works with certain buildings in my eyes.

Whilst I like your setup and design, I think it'd look much more tranquil and fitting with Trees and either a fence or the marble as a border/outline.

Just my view though.

I'm still saving for mine at present. Kind've looking forward to getting it. It's more of a significant building than just a mini restaurant or Pier shop.

I always struggle to choose a wall/fence to go with a building. Calmwood seems even tougher to match because it already comes with its own enclosed wall. I thought the brick wall would be the most private and institutional.

I was kinda going for the opposite of tranquil. This may be because I just finished watching American Horror Story Asylum. :-)

The trees are actually the edge of Fat Tony's Compound, so they don't really have anything to do with my Calmwood setup.

Aside from my park, I can't find anything fitting to do with the marble. It seems like it's 2 feet tall and has almost no defined edging. I really dislike it as a decoration.

Yeah I think seeing the Calmwood wall and then the contrast of the bright brick wall is what puts me off the combo.

Off topic but I really enjoyed AHS season 1. Thought the 2nd was naff though.
However you'd have to make it a lot more darker to capture that theme! Is there a murderous doctor character you can implement? :P

I suppose I meant tranquil as in new age mental hospitals, they are actually quite nice in setup.

I have to agree on the marble, I think I've only used it mainly for my park and then for my posh side of town.
Burns Mansion, Fat Tonys Compound and Wolfcastles mansion to name a few are all surrounded by marble and trees. So they are seperated from the dregs of society!
