Lot Challenge, April 2013, TINY lots.

[HomeschooledByTards]

Yes, you may! You can share as many houses as you want to. I look forward to seeing what else you come up with.

[PA]

There are some seriously nice houses here.  When this challenge is done I'm going to have a full lot bin.

[phoenixc]

I hope I do not bother anyone if I add another house in the contest.
And I hope I'm not upset anyone if I have anither 2 ready.... There will be a total of 4. 2 lot size with 15x20 and 20x15, one 15x10 and one with 10 x 10 ... complete set.
Now about this lot. It's called 990 Doraly Lane.
Lot size Price 15x20
Price furnished 16408
Price unfurnished 13627
The House has facilities for a minimum decent living.  As soon as the simmmy begin to earn money, will be able to change the inside.
I put the emphasis on the outside.
I repeat, I use a program for translation, but it's not perfect, so if the terms are not in order, I apologize.

The rar is the same, 2 files: sims3pack and package for library if you don't install by launcher... Good for the jury.

Now, the pictures








I hope I have put all the details.

My second entry:

16 Alameda Walk
Furnished: §16,346
Unfurnished: §13,907

I went for a Mediterranean look, but sadly the colour themes didn't work too well. So I've used the 'Cozy, Comfortable Living Room' as a base and included the colours from the 'Crisp Coral Living Room' to accent it. I also overloaded it with dark wood.









Most EP/SPs installed. No store stuff used. Not playtested.

The 3rd entry ... No more word. You know who I am from other 2 entry.

Lot name 55 Catalina street
Lot size 10x15
Price furnished 15405
Price unfurnished 11703

The same thing, 2 files: sims3pack and package for Library.

And the last lot... I hope I finish here, but I'm not sure.  

Lot name 180 Aurora Street
Lot size 10x10
Price furnished 16337
Price unfurnished 11215

All my 4 house was tested in game.









If the last picture is without walls is because I wanted to have almost all objects.

Link for downloads: http://www.4shared.com/rar/i3dCiImT/180_Aurora_street.html
The same thing. 2 files, one sim3pack and one package for library. Don't use both...

[phoenixc]

I promise that is the last lot because my imagination has gone wild today.

Seeing as it is accepted content from EA Store, I decided to use the garden set. It is an utopia.
An open space with no privacy ... everything is in plain sight.
I think it's only dedicated to naturalists', nudists ' and environmentalists'.

Lot name 5 Tropical Lane
Lot size 20x15
Price furnished 19719
Price unfurnished 12502

 



The collage contains a detail without Palm trees to be seen better.

I love what people can do with a starter lot. Makes me wonder why EA includes such crappy ones with their worlds.

Phoenixc, your buildings are wonderful!

[Madame Mim]

My only comment is on the last one - anybody living in it is going to get the unfinished moodlet for inside with no floor. Other than that they're all fantastic. Everytime I think I'll submit one of my utilitarian little lots I look here and pike out.

Doooo eeet. We wanna see! My bin can use all the starter lots it can find.

I knew it, but I liked the real ideea...

I don't know if the night is a good counselor.
I thought the new EP will appear; Island Paradise and Robinson Crusoe. A cavern furnished with pieces from limited edition would be something special.
For now, I just put the required objects.
What about? A grotto like starter house?

Lot name: 101 Cages Lane
Lot size 15x10
Price furnished 15900
Price unfurnished 8998

I did not find the tile floor to match with the cavern, so the modlet wil be with unfinished room ... but no one die from that.

Note: I haven't built so many lots to have more opportunities of winning a contest. I've done because I like to build. I am 55 years old ... it's weird for someone my age to play the sims3? My regret is that I don't speak English ... so I can't understand everything that people write.
Now sure I'll stop ... otherwise I'll put monopoly on contest... I still have not finished ideas.

[virgali]

Ö.Ö Yeah, there's no way I'm submitting mine now, lol. I showed a friend one of my "creations" and his reaction was and I quote: "It looks crammed as hell". I'm glad there are people like you guys otherwise I'd be stuck with my fugly lots. I love every single entry, excellent job everyone.

5 Mango Way

Lot Name: 5 Mango Way
Lot Size: 15x10
Unfurnished: 12,451
Furnished: 17,218

Hi Fellow Simmers, Hope you like my house it is small but comfy as. I might make another house like this for myself but make it a little bigger.

Watching V for Vendetta over the weekend, I decided to try an underground lot with an unassuming topside - Like V's Shadow Gallery. (Originally I wanted to make my own version of his home, but it was turning out WAY too expensive and didn't match any of the color schemes, so I gave that up.)

So here's another bunker/bomb shelter type lot for your paranoid sim families. I used a flattened 15x10 lot and the "Cozy Comfortable" color scheme. There is room around the outside of the shack (but inside the fence) to have a few crops.

Furnished: $16,459
Unfurnished: $10,910
Lot has been play-tested a little and shouldn't have routing issues.

OMG! That's perfect for a Pescado sim.

Haha, that had crossed my mind. I imagine the computer corner would need to be a lot more impressive, though.

Now back to the "DOWNLOAD ALL THE LOTS" thing I have going on here.

[phoenixc]

I am a looser... because only now I understood that all the rooms must have the same scheme color on walls. (I asked someone of my friends to translate for me the rules)... Can I modify my posts? I will redo all the lots in order to be able to fit me fine. But no one couldn't tell me what is B.R.A.S.S.  

[Morague]

The B.R.A.S.S. bed is the metal bed frame bed, right near the beginning in the catalog listing. It costs around $400 -$450. Have a look at my lot pictures. I hope that helps!

Thanks, it helps!

phoenixc, you can modify your posts, but only if you want to do so. Non-native English speakers get to break the rules sometimes due to not understanding fully. If you submit new houses though, do follow the color scheme.

Thanks for understanding me, but the rules are the rules for everyone... if not, it's a contest for some and for some other no... so I will change the colors for each interior and I will change on my post only the interiors pictures and of course the lot for downloads. 
I hope the others contestants will not contest my request... because if someone speak another language than English (I speak better Italian and French), could understand better about I'm talking.

[pepsihamster]

Use one of these color schemes.

You may choose up to one more color for wood(s), but otherwise use one color scheme for the interior. Exterior can be any color(s).

Hi, I think I may have a go at this challenge. I need to clarify something (haven't red through the whole thread, so I apologize if this has been covered anywhere). I understand the colour scheme thing but what about paintings, clutter, lamps, you know small accessories - do they have to be in the colour scheme also or are those excluded? And the extra colour for wood; does that have to be the same colour wood throughout or can I use a different colour wood from room to room? I don't know if I over-analyse this, but I have never done a challenge like this, so I don't know how strict this all is. LOL

[HomeschooledByTards]

Painting, clutter, etc, are a somewhat special case, often they have only one channel to change or no way to change them at all, so just do the best you can.

One color wood to be used throughout the whole house. Basically, you end up having four colors to decorate with. I went pretty strict on my houses, even patterns used only the color scheme I chose. I'd like you to stick as close to your chosen scheme as possible, even though it does lend itself toward a bit of a boring house (color wise).
