TS3 - Cormorant Makeover


This is my Entry into SailfinSims EA Makeover Contest.
This lot will more than likely not fit onto other lots due to the slope, I have not placed it anywhere else to check.

2 Bedroom, 1 Bathroom
Plenty of Entertaining Space
Built on 40x30 Lot
180 Wright Way Sunset Valley

When I started to makeover this home I already had in mind who it was for (makes it a lot easier to decorate when you have an idea of who you are decorating for lol)
A young professional couple, she is a Chiropractor or Masseur and he is a 5 Star Chef. They have a teenage daughter and love to entertain.




Entrance


Sitting Room




Kitchen


Dining Room with Bar and Awesome Views!




Dinner is served! (the actual food is not included in the download, would be a bit smelly lol)



Bathroom



Master Bedroom



Teen Girls Bedroom



Home Office



Family Room





Tiki Bar!




 Hot Tub


As you can see from the shot of the back I have managed to make a exposed basement :)

    2. Thank you :)

      The bed came with the Showtime EP, I just moved it into the wall a little to hide the bedhead.

    3. The end tables are just the shelf from Into the future lowered and placed in close to the bed.

  7. Hi Kem, For the bathroom, what surface did you use with the "Ginchiest Sink"? Thank you, and thank you so much for sharing <3

    1. You are welcome :)

      As for the sink, ugh that sink is such a favorite of mine but I could never find anything to sit under it like you can with the other sinks without getting a routing issue.

      That is until I discovered if you turn either the Writers Block shelf (Town Life SP) or The Organizer's Wall Shelf (Prism Art Studio) around to face the wall you can slide it to sit right under the sink and no routing issue!
      It can be a bit tricky to do, it wants to snap the correct way all the time but with some fiddling and patience you can get it to sit there. I used The Organizer's Wall Shelf in this build for it has the added bonus of having slots on the top :)

    2. It is duyguugudur from Sims 3 site again!!

      Ohhh i am drooling!! sooo cool!!! By the way i love that sink too but havent found something under it as well!! And now i know!! You are brilliant!! :) PS: did you used many items from KPST ?

      Also if i flatten the lot, do you believe this build will work at BP? Hugs xxx

      Delete
    3. Thank you hun :)

      I think the only things from KPST I ever use is the candy jars lol. So if you don't have them its no big deal.

      As for flattening the lot, yeah I am not sure about that would work. As the lower levels would have no where to go, You could rebuild the bottom levels in a basement I suppose if you wanted to tackle that lol

    4. It is duyguugudur from Sims 3 site

      it is nice to know!! i truely donot want to buy KPST, lol donot burn me! :)

  8. This is gorgeous. I must say I have 'used' quite a few of your ideas when decorating my own houses. I can't believe how good you make some of the EA items look. You are always an inspiration and I look forward to your updates.

  11. Sadly this house doesnt work for me. I got almost all if not all content from store and even so everything appears with base game replecement, the house looks unrecognizable.. Is there any solution? This house is awesome, is there something I could do about it?

    1. That is strange Nuria! Sorry you're having trouble with it :(

      Lets see if we cant get it to work for you though, are you using actual store content or pirated store content? I know that if you use pirated store content the game treats it like CC and it wont show up in the build :( Stupid I know. Guess its there way of making you pay for it lol

      If you are using actual store content then I really am not sure why it isn't showing up. I could always try and download it to my game and then re upload it and see if that works. Let me know about the store content and we can take it from there :)

      Delete
  12. yes, its pirate content :///// this is really sad!

    ReplyDelete
  13. But hey I decided to do something about, now that I know how and find out that my mom got a international credit card i'm gonna start actually buying stuff. And I'm gonna have this house perfectly on my game! Its so beautiful. Plus i'm done with unofficial CC, keeps causing trouble/crashes/launcher problems!

    1. If you are going to start buying store stuff you really need to keep an eye on the daily deals thread, you can pick up some sets really cheap!

      I would uninstall all your pirated content just to be sure :) I haven't played in Roaring Heights yet so I am not sure which builds would go with it.

Why dont you do a remake of the best family house, its in front of the beach, the best local in this world! here's a picture of the house, its the second white one! http://www.primagames.com/games/sims-3-showtime/primaguides/268/gameplay/8847/5

    1. Thank you Nuria I am glad you like my homes :)

      I really haven't looked at the houses in that world much to be honest, but if I get some free time I will. I am rather busy right ow with requests over at the official forums so I cant promise when or even IF I can do it.

  18. heeey, I want to give you an idea.. Starlight Shores got really cool houses for you to do a remake! There are two houses in front of the beach there are very pretty. One stays on a cliff and the other its an amazing one floor house, with view from the sea everywhere

    This lot is absolutely stunning! Thank you so much for sharing it! I will also probably steal some of your decorating and building ideas for future houses. It is impressive what you can do with no CC!
