    Introduction for Newcomers

    Every two weeks the challenge will change, We'll design a different house or interior of a room and we might even sneak a few Create-A-Sims in to break it up a little.

    Certain challenges will have a monetary limit, some will be spend as much as you like/can to impress.

    We try to make it so everyone can participate in all challenges no matter which Sims game you have and which expansion/stuff packs you have.

    Bi-Weekly Build Challenge, Week 105: Mid-Century Modern Mansions!

    Picture a long, low-slung home with floor-to-ceiling windows, exposed beams and an open floor plan... That description fits a fair number of prairie, ranch, and mid-century modern style homes, which sometimes causes confusion, because mid-century modern is not actually a style: It's a collection that broadly describes architecture, furniture, and graphic design from the middle of the 20th century, roughly 1940 to 1975. What these types of homes share is "an emphasis on lifestyle, a new way of modern living centered around family and home". Mid-century modern homes were inspired by high-style prairie architecture, which emphasized how people lived while melding buildings with their environment. Frank Lloyd Wright, the father of the prairie style, said that in modern U.S. architecture, form no longer followed function: Form was function. Mid-century modern encompasses three well-known styles — international, contemporary and organic. Build the mid-century modern mansion of your dreams and bring the outside in!

    Key Elements:

    • Simple, clean look, inside and outside. Lots of windows.

    • Flat, contemporary roofing.

    • Features "natural" materials such as wood, stone and brick.

    Residential ONLY. Must be fully functional. (TIP: Consider using cheats to unlock debug/hidden items and to place objects more freely!)

    NOTE: Challenges are open for TWO weeks!

    My vampire Sim flirted with two women, made them romantic interests for a bit and then turned them. Then they came to a party she threw and fell in love with each other. :X
