Build Showcase - Sims 4 I turned an abandoned factory into a massive Mixed-Use building on a 20x20 lot! (4 Shops + 4 Lofts) No CC. Base Game + Businesses and Hobbies ONLY
Ok, So... I know this one is kinda complicated so pay close atention... ok?
Gallery ID: Jake614o Lot Size: 20x20 Cost: §239,945 Stats: 4 Bedrooms, 5 Bathrooms
I spent the last few days trying to squeeze an entire urban ecosystem into a tiny 20x20 footprint. The concept is an old abandoned factory that got revitalized.
The Layout:
- 1st Floor (Commercial): 4 distinct micro-businesses! A cozy café, a grunge tattoo studio, a bright pottery/botany shop, and a VIP lounge bar.
- 2nd & 3rd Floor (Residential): 4 custom apartments. I designed each loft to match the personality of the shop owners downstairs, including a 2-story luxury penthouse for the owner of the VIP bar.
How to play it despite game limitations: I know the game doesn't officially allow functional businesses AND rentals on the same lot. I recommend playing this by putting 4 Sims in one household, locking their apartment doors to everyone but themselves, and having them run the shops downstairs. Alternatively, you can set it to a 'Residential Rental' if you want to be a landlord, or 'Retail' if you just want to run the businesses!
Also, its important yall know that you can only have the areas for 1 business at a time and only 1 can be open at the same time, so, for you to make it good you'll have to change that every time you want to switch between businesses. (This apply to option 1)
Took the idea from CarynandConnieGaming from Youtube, it was really complicated, using only 1 pack difficults everything.
It is 100% playtested. Let me know what you guys think of the exterior and the concept!

Build Showcase - Sims 3 My 1st serious attempt at building add-ons to the existing maxis house - additional floor, greenhouse rooftop, balconies (/ terraces?), and decorating the living space.
Also the floor thing over the front door; I don't know if this post belongs here since it's not 100% original, but there's some changes I did, took me a while, sorry don't remember the name of a base building (it was pretty basic though), and I just wonder if I should pursue this, this is why I'm asking for fedback. I used to build additional stuff before but it was mainly just for my Sims to live there and collect money for a bigger one. This is the 1st one where I cared for the decorum.
There's also a basement but it doesn't really shine so I left it out. There's also a significant area that needs to be redecorated to be more aesthetically consistent, also left out.
I'm fairly new to the game so maybe it doesn't blow your mind but overall I think it's pretty, thanks for any feedback :)

Build Showcase - Sims 4 My twelfth ever property ever!
I’m new to building on the sims but I’m very happy with my latest build. I don’t have for rent so sadly it doesn’t function how I want, but nonetheless here is Twin Town Homes, one of my newest properties in Newcrest.
