Hexa Lounge

Holy dang crap this is the most involved build I’ve ever done.  It took me maybe two weeks, although I didn’t work on it every day.  But it is done!  Enough!

It’s not fully furnished because with such a big lot/structure I was wary of lag issues for those of us without The Best Computer.  It’s also not cluttered with decor for that reason plus I figure a swanky resort wouldn’t be very cluttered, heh.

On the Gallery @Llewella7 or direct here. (fyi I think the one I uploaded has a raft floating in mid air that I missed 🤷‍♀️)

I was inspired by this building I came across, and did the best I could with only being allowed 5 floors to work with.  It really needs one more to do the top more accurately. 😒

And now more pictures under the cut.

Stay Classy, Del Sol Valley. 👉

Knapphullet: a natural minimalist microresidence

TIL 2 things: Knapphullet means boutonniere in Norwegian, and boutonniere literally translates to English as buttonhole.  So I’m not sure if the architects who designed this amazing little thing built into sheltered rock intended it named after a boutonniere or a buttonhole.

I saw it on Pinterest this morning and had to build it immediately. 🤷‍♀️

Green & Gold Split-Level

I spent several hours trying to figure out the best way to make a true split-level home.  The only way I could think to finagle it is a little messy, but it works with what tools we’re given.

I love this little MCM house!  I’m trying to work on a picture tutorial for the method I used, too, but I have now restarted my laptop twice and had my Sims freeze on launch thrice so... yeah, working on it.

2 bedrooms, 1.5 baths

Needs Peacemaker’s Vaulted Ranch windows

No-CC version is available on the gallery, but no clerestory windows sad face

Selvadoradian Galleon Dig

(First off, forgive the Love Day lights.  I couldn’t remove them because it’s not a residential lot SO DUMB.)

A U-Brite-funded archaeological excavation project of a Selvadoradian Galleon shipwreck in Sulani, ready for students and professionals alike!

In college I studied public history and archaeology, and the summer before my senior year was spent digging a local 18th century French fort.  It was SO FUN.  And also why I had so much fun building this lot and adding details like a housed generator and wet screen station!

Daily Build: Fisherman’s Shack

(I am in love with this house!)

Amine and Makoa talked and decided what they really needed to live their best life was a place ideally suited to their respective passions of marine archaeology and conservation.

They dropped everything back on the mainland and settled into a renovated fisherman’s shack on a tiny island in Mua Pel’am.  It took everything they had, but Amine’s sense of design was still put to use in furnishing it with anything they could find and piece together for a very eco-reuse look... with a touch of studious occupants and artifact collecting thrown in.

It was now a short swim across the lagoon for Makoa to check on the island’s environment and a quick sail out to the dive area for Amine.  There was space for a small garden, space for relaxing and entertaining, and they made sure to have a(n UPGRADED!) Murphy bed tucked in for when Makoa’s daughters stayed on the weekends.

Up next: wedding planning!
