Happy you like them. I think detailed flooring adds a lot to a build. It wasn’t that important to me before. But if you think about it, during gameplay most people have walls down, so they don’t see the walls that much anyway. But the flooring is what players see all the time because of this angle simmers look down onto the house all the time. So doing your flooring nicely and also for zoning it’s actually very useful(and fabulous if course) if you do detailed flooring.
Well I'm just blown away. So much time, effort and research. Great job. I've been playing the sims for 3 years and only just discovered you. I look forward to seeing what you do with the medieval castle build kit. Cant wait to down load this , thank you.
this is beautiful and really transported me back in time somewhat. I’ve always loved to look at the fancy homes from back in that era. You always do such a fantastic job. Thank you for putting in all the time it takes for these kind of builds
Thank you Susan. I am happy you like it. Yeah I know I don’t upload that frequent, the builds take quite some time plus editing videos etc. takes a lot of free time. So I am always happy when I get comments like yours that appreciate the time I habe put into them. Because sadly I see lots of sim builders videos with way less detail. I guess they wanna please the youtube algorithm more than their own creativity. I really loved the show and definitely one day will be visiting a huge gilded age mansion. But for now I habe to make due with the castles and places we have in Germany 😆
This build is just wonderful, and I enjoyed the video as well, especially when you share some details of the era. I never would have thought of using the different floor designs as you did, it made such an impact too. Thanks for taking the time to make the interior so perfect, even though it can be tedious and not as fun for you. Have you ever thought of building a Frank Lloyd Wright designed home? There was so much thought put into the blending of nature with the man made structure, so trying to interpret that in the Sims might be a welcome challenge even though it's not a castle.
I absolutely love this! It's beautiful and I love the way you incorporated the Decore to the Max kit (which some items have an almost art deco feel) and the how grand it feels! Also, the thing that brings food up and down is called a 'dumbwaiter'. It's a weird word, and I hope I didn't come off as rude or anything. I really get how hard English is! Thank you again, and wonderful build.
Ooooh! 😍 I've been waiting for this video! It's so incredibly beautiful and so detailed and you absolutely tied everything together in this "over-the-top" style! It's fun being able to use the kitschy furniture and the weird swatches every now and then, isn't it? But matching and coordinating colours can be a nightmare in this game ... How can a person who says she hates doing interiors furnish them so perfectly?! 😭 But I get what you mean. After I'm finally finished with my exterior, I always dread furnishing and decorating the interior. And after that, I usually have the landscaping left ... That's why I have to go step by step and take breaks inbetween. I could never build as much as fast as some builders here on TH-cam do ... 😂So, yeah, completely agree with you.
The library obsession for me comes from Beauty and the Beast and that library in the castle where she had just a whole wall full of books. And then other rich-people houses I've seen made appreciate a good library even more. So now I've become accustomed to the idea that rich people absolutely must have a massive library lol The Ballroom thing is a pretty similar idea. Rich people must have a ballroom to throw huge parties in and impress their rich friends
Great build as always. I'll be sure to download this one from the gallery as well. I know there are technically no servants in the sims and that you don't use mods, but there is a live in services mod by little ms sims or little ms Sam not real sure which screenname is used. Anyway it allows Gardners and maids to be live in workers. It also adds nannies and of course you already have butlers. With basemental drugs or maybe it's wicked whims or nisa's wicked mod that allows a bouncer on the lot(security/bodyguard) and you could of course use mccc to increase the number of sims that can live in the household and build servants.
Oh I have heard of some of these mods. I guess if simmers really want servants and alter gameplay mechanics they will find a way. The rooms are already there for them. 😊
I love this build. It really captured the feel of the show. It's opulent AND tacky which is exactly how the Russell house was presented to be.
Thanks so much. I know there are mad differences from show to sims here. But I would guess it fits a simlish version of the Russel family.
So inspired by the custom flooring you did throughout! The mix of rugs, pool details, tile, carpet, wood directions…it really elevated the spaces.

Actually stunning. The amount of realism, the attention to detail, the faithfulness to the show- oh my god.

Just wow! The whole build od beautiful, the floors are a master piece and the bathrooms are marvelous! Do much inspiration for my own builds!
This is so awesome, I must find you on the gallery 🤩
i so love this build...you have done an amazing work building this so close to the house in the show..WOW.
Thank you Brenda. Happy you like it!

You did SUCH an amazing job! This is incredible.
Looks absolutely amazing, as usual! 😍😍😍
In English, the food elevator is called a dumbwaiter. Kind of a funny word, even for us, lol. Very cool bulld!
Dumbwaiter?? Ohhhhhhh! Ok. That’s a funny word. Thanks for letting me know😊
Wonderful! Great Work! ❤

Oh I love this so much. What a great build.
ALso I am planning to visit the Vanderbilt Mansion next weekend!
Ohhhhh! So cool! I am mad jealous for sure. Wish you a lovely day there! 😊
Excellent build
You are extremely talented!!!!

Wow incredible job 😳🥰this is beautiful I can’t wait to download this you are so amazing I absolutely love your builds
Very happyyou enjoy my builds! 😀 thank you!!
Frye you’re a true talent
i needed this! Absolutely fabulous
Glad you like it 😊
"It was mostly decorating, and for those that don't know, I hate decorating." 😂
Well it is what it is. I hate decorating 😂
@@Simproved You did a great job though!
Can we download your builds from the Xbox gallery? If so, what should I search for?
My EA ID is Simproved aswell. You’ll find it there for sure!
Just so amazing! So, when can we invite Mrs Astor?
Lol. We invite her every day she just doesn’t want to come 🙃
Yeay! Next you will be building the Russell’s Newport “cottage”!
Why do the tables turn black when you put clutter on them? It's not because of the Tool mod, I also use it and that doesn't happen to me
I have no idea. I thought maybe it is the Better Build Buy mod???
@@Simproved I have that as well
I guess the B in LGBTQ+ now is for buildsexual because I just FELL IN LOVE WITH THIS BUILD !!! You're awesome!!
😂
