With the wallpaper thing, just think I it as Every room has a theme (kitchen could be food related, bedroom could be Relaxed. Flooring could be light in one room/ dark in the other
I can see where you're coming from when you say that you are not satisfied when completing a smaller house, but I--personally--get the most pleasure from building the smallest house I can with the most usability ^_^ I often have an individual Sim or family in mind before I build a house. It helps me decide what the style of the house will be and what the particular Sim/family would need/want in the house.
Nah, that's not how I wanted to do the house. The kitchen then would have also become just a walkway with Sims walking through the centre of it all the time. I wanted a luxurious kitchen in the house, not a small one. I mean, you can change it if you want, but that's how I wanted to do it.
Awesome house, James!! ;) I am currently unable to play my Sims right now due to my PC dying on me. Hey, it happens, right? So, I just watch your house build videos to hold me over until I purchase another PC. Keep up the good work, James!
That's what I was thinking! I actually expected him to have the living area down the little steps, as many small houses do have the doors open into the kitchen , maybe that's just me xD
All of your houses look great - if somebody doesn't like a specific design, they can always download the house and change it. Spending the whole voice over talking about how you don't like rooms and how you don't like making smaller houses makes me not want to watch the video!
I was watching your Sims 4 House Building videos first with your super energetic commentary and you sounds so quiet here, it's so different but it's ok. :) Anyways, it's a pretty nice home as always!
I have a huge creativity problem when it comes to building houses, but I'm totally the opposite when it comes to creating sims. That's why I like watching videos like yours and kind of learn how to build my own house, but I prefer to download them :/ idk. I'm making since to myself but idk if it makes since to anyone else xD.
Bud don't down yourself. Your great at building and furnishing and I would absolutely LOVE to give it a go but I can't build..your my inspiration to give it a go and try.
I use the house all the time I had a husband and wife and FOUR kids I put bunk bed in and it was a very nice house just hectic when they all Need to use the bathroom
I've been watching your videos for a hour and you have already amazed me your a brilliant house builder you have inspired me to make the same vids as you I'm starting in a few weeks thank you
Can someone help me on what video i should watch cause i just started playing the sims 3 and i need a house for my family it has A husband and wife two teenage twins and one toddler all the kids are female btw
I know how you feel about the huge paintings, they had some decent ones in TS2 Nightlife and recolours were so easy to find... If only they still had those. Anyways I like this, just goes to show how important detail is. You taught me something about building today. :D x
I really like this house!! It's so simple and clean. I noticed that you put the kitchen in the downstairs area and was wondering if that was an Australian thing? Here in California in our older beach homes and bungalows our living rooms are lower than the actual house and the kitchens are in the upper part of the house. I like your take on the bungalow style and I will definitely be downloading it for my simmies. :)
I really do love your houses, not only are they beautiful but like you said playable as well ^_^ I do suggest that when adding furniture try adding more detail like in the bathroom toilet paper/ makeup kit or in the kitchen pots/pans. Overall don't be afraid to experiment with colors/ flowers etc. Keep doing a good job :D
Flabs, its not that your not satisfied it is that you heavily critique your work and therefore you always feel you can do it better. I get that way about my own builds. Ill make them but than ill go back to them a week later and I wanna tear it apart and rebuild it from ground 0... great builds you really needa help me. I would love to share my builds with others like you have on this channel and possibly the new sim supply
Yeah. If anyone else tried. But this guy is awesome, and I believe that he is able to make it awesome. And just because you're not able to use black, white, brown or grey, you may still use, for an example dark blue, light yellow, and such. Just as long as it's colours you know. He is talking about challenging himself, so.. yeah :D
You keep saying you like to challenge yourself, so i'd like to challenge you. Create a medium-sized house, it cannot be just a block, it has to be "exiting". Here comes the tricky part; You are NOT allowed to use the colours white, black, grey or brown anywhere. In other words, create a house for a kind of crazy person. Are you up for it? :D
I would love to see you challenge yourself by putting, like, a 20,000 simoleon budget to one of your speed builds, just to see what would happen. But I love how simple and cozy this; I may have to download it. :)
a rug would have made the living room more resolved; more complete. Also, there is a large rectangular painting in the Sims 3 High end Loft stuff. About the size you wanted, maybe a bit smaller. you could have used that =)
You don't always have to put a car in the house, we wanna be able to afford it and not work soo hard to get a small house with a multiple thousand car, we can put it in ourselves when we get the house and get enough money. Besides it might not even be the car that we like :) Just say'n
New Subber as of today this house was awsome for the Normalcy ! (im not that modern builder in my games i love the traditional homes way more) and you live stream with curtis and lauren was cool too
I really like your commentary. You always talk in a friendly sort of fashion and you don't talk as if you are superior or better than us. I really appreciate that about you. Love your houses! :)
OK, well I don't want to have to bother with going into edit town, finding the lot, placing it, and removing the car, then saving the lot, waiting for the loading, going back into live mode, then buying the lot!
Ever since the pizza lady looked into my house I've been scared to death of windows in the Sims. May I also mention it was night and it was raining? Never ordering again.
You are so amazing at building houses and i think you're just rubbing off on me cause I find myself making better houses I'm much more proud of so thanks :D
You are so creative at building and you're amazing at it. But decorating not so much lol. black wallpaper, blue couch, brown lamp, grey curtains and green floor...
hey the sims 3 university comes with the option to change a residential lot type to apartments i'd like to see an expert builder like yourself check it out
It's funny that you are talking about purposefully doing different wallpaper, because you also use the same single bed in most cases. I had never noticed that you use the same wallpaper, but because that bed starts with such odd linens, I have noticed that.
Hello, I was gonna start doing Sims-houses, do yo have any tis for a new starter? Only got two houses up so far, but would appreciate some tips and trics fom one o the better builders!
If the Bedroom and the living area were switched this would the exact house I grew up in Northside Chicago...And the garage was detached as we had an alley. Played field hockey and baskeyball back there for hours as a kid
I feel the same way about building these types of houses! It's just not enjoyable to build them... the experience isn't the same as building big houses.
Hi, so I have been watching a lot of your videos and I hear you saying that you hate furnishing, and I quite love it so if you have anything you would like me to furnish, I would absolutely love to do that for you.
I love the nice regular family looking homes.
Olynicole1234 SAME HERE 😄😄😄
I love this! Small houses are very cute
With the wallpaper thing, just think I it as Every room has a theme (kitchen could be food related, bedroom could be Relaxed. Flooring could be light in one room/ dark in the other
OMG that is so cool! I gonna (try) build it! :D And I love simple and pretty houses :3
How to make that "(5x20)" thing appear on the screen, that would help me alot
What town did you build in for the speed build?:)
He cleared all the lots in sunset valley, and that's where he builds.
Could you make a terraced house?
What I hate about my building skills is, i always ended up with similar houses. I have no creativity.
Same with me😂
I feel the same, but lately I've been coming out of my comfort zone and started making houses that don't look so boxy... If that makes any since xD.
He sounds so... depressed :/
In his newer videos he sounds much happier ☺️
"Im not saying, its amazing its out of this world, you should download mine. Because it... Its a house" Me: "OMG YOUR A GENIUS"
I can see where you're coming from when you say that you are not satisfied when completing a smaller house, but I--personally--get the most pleasure from building the smallest house I can with the most usability ^_^

I am currently unable to play my Sims right now due to my PC dying on me. Hey, it happens, right? So, I just watch your house build videos to hold me over until I purchase another PC.
Keep up the good work, James!
i think a switch with the kitchen and living area would have improved this bungalow :)
That's what I was thinking! I actually expected him to have the living area down the little steps, as many small houses do have the doors open into the kitchen , maybe that's just me xD
Yeaaah, I agreed!
> Starts watching Speed build.
> Ends up being inspired.
Wat.
Yay :)
All of your houses look great - if somebody doesn't like a specific design, they can always download the house and change it. Spending the whole voice over talking about how you don't like rooms and how you don't like making smaller houses makes me not want to watch the video!
Hahaha, cool story bro!
I usually always do that, I didn't do it in this one cause I wanted it to be cleaner and sleek.
your voice though james...
I was watching your Sims 4 House Building videos first with your super energetic commentary and you sounds so quiet here, it's so different but it's ok. :) Anyways, it's a pretty nice home as always!

It's only a front fence, that's why :)
"It's not big or satisfying enough." Bro xD
I would have made the downstairs where the kitchen is, I would make that the living room
It's not big enough and it's not satisfying. lol
Bud don't down yourself. Your great at building and furnishing and I would absolutely LOVE to give it a go but I can't build..your my inspiration to give it a go and try.
My columns won't aline with my stairs and rails is there a mod or something for this
I use the house all the time I had a husband and wife and FOUR kids I put bunk bed in and it was a very nice house just hectic when they all Need to use the bathroom
I had a husband and wife, 5 kids and a granchild, I have more bathrooms than bedrooms!
LOL Listen to him in 0.5 speed lmao
hahaha, the website is funny, there is a snail for downloading from the sims 3 store and lightning to download from his website
I really like this video. Hope you do more "tutorial" - like videos. I'm not a shabby builder myself, but ideas for homes aren't my strong suit. 👍
I've been watching your videos for a hour and you have already amazed me your a brilliant house builder you have inspired me to make the same vids as you I'm starting in a few weeks thank you
Can someone help me on what video i should watch cause i just started playing the sims 3 and i need a house for my family it has A husband and wife two teenage twins and one toddler all the kids are female btw
how do you turn on the option that shows your dimensions?
ex. 5x2
i still haven't figured it out fmlll
Love love love!! Also you kinda sound like Ashton Irwin which is hot. Haha
It is true that its annoying to play the game with modern houses, i prefer theese type of houses. Good job man
I think the only problem with my houses are the roofs and some of the furnishings
I know how you feel about the huge paintings, they had some decent ones in TS2 Nightlife and recolours were so easy to find... If only they still had those. Anyways I like this, just goes to show how important detail is. You taught me something about building today. :D x
how did you place the supports on top of the fence?
+raechel lynn You can use a cheat. :) I's moveobjects on
You have inspired to make a house of my own! Thank you! 😘
Why don't you become an architect or a interior designer?
God bless brother
I really like this house!! It's so simple and clean. I noticed that you put the kitchen in the downstairs area and was wondering if that was an Australian thing?

how do u move the mail box and painting anyway? *^*

Bungalows were mainly popular in the early 1900's. They were a simple middle class house made for families moving into the suburban areas.
Flabs, its not that your not satisfied it is that you heavily critique your work and therefore you always feel you can do it better. I get that way about my own builds.

I feel like this is a really classy house. I feel like it is a house that actually exists.
Yeah. If anyone else tried. But this guy is awesome, and I believe that he is able to make it awesome.

Thanks very much. I love your work. :) I'm very lazy at building a house recently.

I feel the same way about building these types of houses! It's just not enjoyable to build them... the experience isn't the same as building big houses.
For some reason, I have problems placing doors. It is saying that I have no walls, when I clearly do have walls. What do I do? Please help!
Hi, so I have been watching a lot of your videos and I hear you saying that you hate furnishing, and I quite love it so if you have anything you would like me to furnish, I would absolutely love to do that for you.
Might I have a good suggestion, why not do the Winslow house off from Family Matters?
by far my favorite house in the game now
Challenge: Build a house using ONLY blueprints. I've tried, impossible xD. To be nice you may change the walls :)
you make me laugh... I like watching your videos to listen to you ramble on.. oh and the houses are cool too ;)
That is a nice looking house James. I really like it very much. I will move my sims into it.
You should put paintings on the walls in the hallway or wherever there is a bare wall. It makes it much nicer.
Best house I have seen. My sims enjoy living in here, it is very luxerious to ny sims and I thank you for makinf it.
How do you take the really high quality screen shots at the end? When i take one its really bad quality :(
This house is so cool!!! and i really love your videos! keep making them!
Would you be able to make a starter house as I am sick of living in the same houses when I start an new game? :)
You dont use cc,right?
He says he doesn't like to use cc, so he wouldn't use it in builds for other people to download because you can't put download links in the gallery ☺️
this is kinda off topic but did anyone else notice a severe drop in the # of fences after they installed gen or WA?
is this house downloadable I love it just the way it is but dont have the packs that give u most the stuff in this house
Did you use a cheat to get that down stairs part of the house ? what is the cheat if you did please
I'm super excited for the next time you upload a Lets Build a House Episode. Those are my favorite:)
I have been trying to build this style house for ages, how did u do the kitchen area...to sink it in like that
@alivia dinorscio
with the cheat: buydebug
I'm going to use this for my single mom who owns a farm she just won the lottery so I was looking for a new home and I love this one.
0:18 how did you put that there? im new to this kind of building sorry for me being dumb :/
I think the challenging thing is to build something that is not your taste but still pretty...
Thank you!!! Is the first time a build a house and it turn out great!!
Well after watching this video I no know that this house....is a house xD Love this house^^
I am going to try doing this house, but in my own way because I am really inspired right now!
What's the house next-door? It's beautiful!
good to see you breaking out of your shell to try something different! :) looks awesome!!
Was anyone else confused when he did the kitchen?? If you know how to do it can u help me pleaseeee
I so agree with u the living room was not the best but everything else is perfect.
I'm going to level with you, I'm drunk right now, and watching this is trippy as hell! So fast.
Can you build a house with purely vanilla sims equipment ???? Pretty Please :D !!!!!!
