All the houses are great, but I really like the second one. It has a lot of character. I have those stairs and have never managed to find a use for them. Heh. I also love the balcony decor you used. Wonderful!

Nice stairs, khakido, how did you do it?

This is probably the craziest house I've ever done: Imagine the foundation of your house raised really high and your rooms are connected by stairs. It's not beautiful, but it sure looks promising.



The front




Left: The game room. An elevator on the space you see in the middle takes you up the club-like room.
Right: The dining room.




One part of the house has two alternating routes: To the right is a direct route to the front yard. The left...




...Leads to a pond ideal for fishing or just hanging out.

One problem, though: There's probably no way you could convert your foundation's interior into a room.

I've been looking at some medieval paintings and noted now deserted and isolated everything seems... so when I made my own "medieval" neighborhood, I decided to try and recreate that feeling.

edit - I think I took landscaping the wrong way, lol.

That's such a great picture!

CherificSim, I love the beach house, especially the little conservatory room with the plants.

I love all these houses! And yay for the first beach house.

Here's a house I really enjoyed playing. Too bad I lost it in one of my many reinstalls. :P
