I tried to build my own real life house. The hardest part was to find th right size
I did that to, the hardest part was the roof.
Same... And the hardest part was not to puke when I was done... :C
Mine was doing a split level. Basement is part upstairs bc it has windows but that then threw everything else off with the stairs (7 down 8 up then 8 up again)
I gave up on mine, it’s this weird split level on a hill and I have no idea how to use terrain tools in that way
I can't do mine because my room is part-cut by the roof which is asymetric so impossible :(
As someone who has been in school for interior design for years now, I can confidently say that simsie is a very talented builder, and she absolutely needs to stop being so critical/harsh on herself. Even if she does believe she's a bad builder, it isn't healthy to constantly criticize yourself the way she does. The way you think about yourself is a self fulfilling prophecy, so since she's constantly being extremely harsh/mean to herself, of course she is going to truly believe she is bad at what she does. However, she should start saying positive comments about her builds (and herself), even if they are completely sarcastic or superficial, because if you tell yourself something often enough and long enough, you'll start to truly believe it. Lilsimsie is a talented girl and she needs to work to retrain her brain into believing positive things about herself and her talents.
Exactly
Couldn't agree more.
Agree
Agreed
lameeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
❗️CHALLENGE❗️
Do a let’s build, but negative words are banned.
This includes words like:
- Stupid
- Dumb
- Bad
- Hate
- Gross
- “Ew”
- +++ And the list goes on
If you fail, you’ll have to switch out a window, door, or furniture (no lights) with your least favourite of that sort.
Did you just say that it “looks gross”? Here comes the cheap, basic, dirty, blue, city living counters!
Your builds are amazing, Simsie. You discredit yourself too much! ❤️
Positivity build challenge!!! I support this 100%
OMG yes
Yes! Sometimes the negativity is just too much and really gets me down. Every time i build and im happy im like 😰 but wait simsie would hate it!
sorrybutimalibra || Watch her shell tours. She’s in love with the builds!
She’s only negative towards herself 😞
Oh i know shes really lovely and sweet, I just think the negativity is infectious. Honestly that's not her problem though, thats mine, I get more stressed out by the way she reacts to her own designs really
Ok, here's some help for translating "real life" to Sims scaling:
-Most interior doors, halls, and staircases are about 30"-36" wide.
-Bathrooms are usually 5-6 feet deep by 9-10 feet wide.
-Bedrooms are usually 10-12 feet across.
-Appliances are also 30-36" wide, and counters about 24" deep.
SO, to match Sims scaling, treat each square as about 2.5-3 feet! :)
I think what makes it so hard for you is that floorplans are opposite what you do. Usually, you make the outside "shell", and then figure out how to fit the rooms inside. (I cannot do this, and have always admired that you can make the shell first!) Where with floorplans, you have to ignore the outside until the end, and make all the rooms work together like puzzle pieces. Again, use stairs, doors, halls, tubs, and appliances for help with scale. Treat each square in the Sims as 2.5-3 feet approximately. Floorplans will be MUCH easier like that. :)
Then, you can focus on widow scales and making it look good from the outside.
I've ALWAYS followed floorplans (building since Sims 2), and have learned the tricks of using these clues for scaling. It's never failed me!! Also, best floorplans are Victorian and Craftsman, and they're less boring as just a box :P
Hope this helps anyone trying to follow floorplans. ^_^
@SlavaZone you are an absolute genius!!!
THANK YOU
I actually kind of love this build. it feels so realistic
All I ever hear in these build videos is “ugh I hate this” “it’s horrible” “it’s disgusting” and I’m like damn... that’s a nice house... like you should have seen some of mine. They are squares, literal squares. No definition whatsoever
i build square houses as well and the i feel bad when she hates her masterpieces✌🏻
i can already tell the build will be good and she'll say its bad lol
YES
It's better than all my builds lmao
That Simmer she didn’t say bad she said disaster
She should be allowed to have her own standards tho.
@@elizabethnicole9668 she said bad like 8 thousand times
Hey lilsimsie. I love watching you build but, you always talk negative about yourself and your builds. I was just wondering, is that part of your thing, or do you really feel like that? I think you're amazing. 💗
It’s her thing she always has jokes like that in build vids x
my guess is it’s sort of both,obiv she thinks it’s decent enough to leave it like this and post it,but she also doesn’t think it’s the absolute best she could ever do
my cats name is Tabitha :)
Yeah. I love watching her build in the sims, but kinda painful too always hearing her talk negative about her builds.
Yeah I wish she would stop talking so negatively. Definitely takes away from the video.. I watch to try to learn but hearing her say “oh this isn’t good enough” takes all of that interest away.
“Look at the side of your neighbor’s house!”
Me, a person who lives in a townhouse, where every one is identical: 👁👄👁
xD
Me, who lives out of town, where nobody lives:
👁👁
👃
👄
"Look at the side of your neighbours house"
Me, also living in a townhouse: *looks at my bedroom wall*
Me, a person who lives in an apartment complex: looks out of window at other apartment complexes👁👄👁
Lol same
Kayla bingo but every square is just a variation of "This is so bad," and "This is a disaster."
No one:
Any kayak video: i'm sorry you guys, I thought this was gonna be good :c
May I ask why you call her Kayak? 🤣
Macarena Cabral her second channel
Macarena Cabral It is an inside joke on this channel because Kayla used to autocorrect to kayak. Now people call her kayak, Kelly, Klondike, etc.
@@LlamasAtMidnight also Kelloggs
Its more like
Everyone in there head: this is pretty good!
Kayak: this is bad :/
Lol 😂
You have got to STOP saying your builds are bad, they are really good and this one looks very close to the diagram. Just stop it!!!
She has an anxiety condition. She's been struggling with this for years. You can't just turn something like that on and off.
@@skvaderarts7009 exactly
For people from america that looks weird. But for people like me from scandinavia that actually looks more of an normal house.I have often think that the houses u have build in the sims 4 are soo weird,but it's bc that they are normal in america😂
I know what you mean. I remember Kayla saying she had trouble building modern houses because "you don't see those often", but around where I live there are tons of those. I've never seen a house like the ones Kayla builds in my country.
Omg, yes! I saw the thumbnail and was like,, so you're building a swedish house?
It’s the same with British houses, you expect to see these detached house with massive gardens and stuff whereas in reality we have a lot of terraced houses with small gardens
Yeah, I never see the Sims youtuber style houses outside TH-cam. This looks better than her normal builds to me.
I see houses like this a lot from my area of America, typically on farms rather than in neighborhoods, unless you go to the historic towns (which I LOVE). Then they’re fairly common
I feel like she always hates her builds, makes it hard to watch after so many times :(
Ik I’m getting so tired of it I’m so happy I’m not the only one who noticed
Yes! This is so annoying how she talks about how bad it is.This isn't a horrible build
Her constant negativity towards her own builds was what made me stop watching her for like a few months . . . until I started obsessing over the Sims 4 again and here I am lol
blackedred ً the exact same happened to me, I wish she could see that she’s actually really good at this
TheFreej yea I agree! Every time I watch her videos she just discredits what’s she doing constantly like this whole video was her basically just saying how much she hated it. I understand saying it a few times but she does this so much with many of her builds. It’s such a shame because I want to enjoy the videos :(
“oof oof don’t do that”
- my mom when i tell her i want to buy another pack
same!
Same boi
aginmotion omg. Every time.
My parents won’t let me buy one until I get the money for it
My mom just tells me that I don't have to ask her about this because it's my money
i love lilsimsie but her self deprecation makes these vids so hard to watch sometimes :/
I had to stop watching her videos for a while because she was so negative towards herself 😞...
Yes, jokes are used as coping mechanisms, but it’s not fun hearing someone talk bad about themselves for 20 minutes, even as “jokes”.
Like y’all if you don’t like the jokes don’t watch its that simple
People are allowed to share what they dislike about a video!! They obviously enjoy watching her but this is something they (me included) find irritating at times. Please don’t act as if they are not allowed to voice their concerns.
Brightness3 || On my part, it’s not about liking the jokes or not. I just don’t like when people drag themselves? Especially when they’re so talented. They don’t feel like jokes anymore
Right?! All her buildings are super cool, and hearing her self deprecating herself makes it so hard to watch lol i thought it was just me
Haha you’re always “I hate that. Ew. Ew. Ew.” And I know if you looked at my stuff on the gallery you’d throw me into a volcano.
Teneille Sw. i relate to this so much
😂 i put too many windows and don’t landscape so mines probably worse
That is exactly how I feel!
Right! I'm always looking at Kayla thinking "That looks sooo good I want to be this good at building" and then Kayla says "Ok, I hate this"
Don’t be so self deprecating it’s not good and not healthy
Kayla in literally every single video so makes: ooohhh it looks so bad *nervous laugh*
Unrelated to the video but like Kayla is so pretty. Like she’s absolute goals her hair inspired me to cut mine short today and I feel so happy
Good to know you feel happy! :) i also cut mine shoulder length a few days ago and im in LOVE. My friends came over yesterday and they all loved it im so happy
Me too! Im so glad i finally cut my hair short too. I thought it would look weird on me, but it actually suits me well. Im so glad you like your hair too!
agree
Same!! Best haircut ever.
Same! I also cut my hair short and it's amazing!
*me watching a lilsimsie build*
Me: “oh! I like that it looks so good!!”
Kayla: “I hate this. This looks terrible!”
And repeat 10 times. 😂😂😂
Whenever I recreate a floor plan I always base it off the furniture that we have in the sims and then estimate how many tiles long the walls should be It is super complicated but it works .
Same. It's the half-tiles for walls that are lacking.
Yeah
I do the same thing, like if there's closet space I always use the ones from Get Together so that particular space is 2 tiles etc... Makes builds take forever but it works out.
@@EmilyK.91 Yeah, I’d base it on the closet spaces and the window size, it seems like the best way around it
i really like this channel but it's incredibly annoying how she always hates her builds and rags on them the whole time
I wouldn’t call it annoying, I‘m rather a bit worried about her. I hope she’s doing well!
@@lu656 feels a bit like trying to paint a realistic looking painting whit a sledgehammer at the end of a Excavator whit only 3 and a half colors and a shoddy gearbox.
not as much trying to copy a floor plan as trying to get the measurements down correctly whit tools that are no wear near accurate enough.
I agree! I wanted to watch more Sims content, but it's the main reason I haven't subscribed yet. I thought it would stop after a couple videos I saw, but it makes me sad for her how often her self-deprication is 😞 I thought the build looked good!
How it always goes....... Lilsimsie: Omg it’s sooo bad. Everybody els: it’s so good!
you should change the title to, “simsie complains about her build for 18 minutes straight”
She might be paranoid that it's bad when it rlly isn't? It could be a form of anxiety? She could be insecure. You dont know so pipe da fock down babe
xlolax turner it was a joke ✨CHILE✨
xlolax turner it’s hard to watch regardless of the reason, I have empathy as I have an anxiety disorder but shitting on myself in front of thousands of people can make them feel weird
@@mcsaism yeh I get that
@@mcsaism hope your anxiety gets better❤
I thought of a build challenge, it's kinda tedious but basically you would build normally but everytime you touch (aka move the furniture) you have to change to the next swatch, I think it would make for a hilarious looking house as it would also be a no mistake kinda thing were you can only change the swatch when you move it and you have to start on the first swatch of every item
I like it!
NEW CHALLENGE IDEA: do an entire build where you can’t self deprecate or insult anything. no sarcasm tho!
Anyone else surprised that Simsie doesn’t comment 1st on her own videos? 😂
She used too. Not all the time, but every now and again
Hello Eddie spaghetti
Right? She does it on her gallery builds and households all the time, but not on her videos.
Edward Spaghedward! What up?
I think it’s because no one comments first on her videos, just on the gallery
Edit: I put fits instead of it’s lmao I fixed it :)
me, who has no experience with building: "this is very nice! i love the build-"
her: "this is bad. atrocious. what is this roof, its stupid. whats with the furnishing, coRners?????? bad. ew. 1 star"
How much you wanna bet she's going to say "this is bad, it's bad" or "I hate this" at least 2 times each throughout this 19 minute video 😔😭
She is too hard on herself
Or ”Im sorry”😂😂
Maybe she rly does think that but it’s starting to get annoying lmao
maybe it’s a defence mechanism so people won’t be mean if she is mean to herself ):
Only 2 times? 😂
jessica p if it’s annoying don’t watch its that simple.
Does anyone else get upset when she is so negative? Making light hearted jokes I guess is okies and somewhat quirky or whatever... but her attitude is starting to bum me out.
Gurl I'm pretty sure she has anxiety it's not her fault
Wtf? She’s not trying to be quirky, she’s just sharing her opinions on what she builds. She might not be the most confident person out there, how is it going to help if people tell her it’s making them upset or annoyed?
Yeah man, blaming someone for their low self-worth isn’t gonna make them have a better outlook on themselves (quite the opposite actually) 😅😅😅. In fact, as someone with a very low self worth myself and crippling perfectionism (hell’s worst combo lmao) lemme tell you that we are PAINFULLY aware how annoying other people think it is when we say bad things about ourselves or apologise for the fiftieth time for something we aren’t even to blame for in the first place. We just can’t help see all that is wrong with us, overthink it and panic about it.
I understand. I think the replies are a bit harsh. Its understandable it makes you feel a bit bummed hearing her be so negative.
Kayak: "This house definitely has a lot of storage. Like, too much, actually."
Me: "One shall NEVER declare that there is tOo MuCh storage! ALL HAIL STORAGE"
Honestly yeah I live in a country where apartments have SO MUCH unused wall space where you could install shelves and stuff. No upper limit to storage honestly
Zoe P
so tru! like, i live in hong kong, and only the RICHEST can afford houses on hong kong ISLAND, so there's literally not enough storage space anywhere
I think this house has an average amount of storage. I find it disappointing if there isn't a closet for each bedroom and one for coats/cleaning supplies.
I actually really really like that exterior ngl it’s pretty I wish there were more houses like that irl... kinda reminds me of the houses in rural Illinois but not exactly
It's almost annoying how much she hates her builds when they're so good!! Like it distracts from the video 👀
it annoys me that she's so negative. she stress me out for no reason. You're doing fine be positive!
yes agree 100% it's incredibly annoying
Yes. Totally annoying. It makes me wonder then anytime she’s ever given a build a compliment was she just faking it because she HATES everything she does even though it’s perfectly fine. Do you get what I mean?
💯
Glad people agree, I commented this on another video and people started coming at me for being negative like... I like her builds and I want her to like them too!
I think this build is legitimately beautiful. What isn't cute is your self-deprecating shtick, Kayla. It genuinely makes people feel bad about their own buildings.
Ummm doesn't she have anxiety? Its not her fault she worries about her builds there could be millions of people watching and that probbaly makes her nervous
Plus she’s not in charge of what other ppl feel like, idk if that’s how she feels about her builds then thats how she feels, imagine you having millions of ppl watching you
She’s not trying to be cute, honey. Who are you to believe she’s doing this to be all cute and quirky and she doesn’t actually dislike her builds or is just very unconfident? How fucking rude.
I swear I've never heard her say I love this build so much :)
I really like the concept of having a bathroom- laundry room combo
I think they’re quite common in parts of Europe
Yeah, swede over here, and I would say it's rare for a house to have the laundry room sperate from the bathroom. Apartment buildings often have one shared laundry room in the basement but I'm not sure how common that is across Europe
I was literally doing this earlier, can't wait to watch
Edit; thanks so much for 100 likes
Same!
I'm currently looking for a flat to buy and recreating floor plans is literally my life these days. I feel her lmao
the amount of negativity is unbearable to watch, kayak.
so don’t watch?
@@marla49 people are aloud to share. So many of Kayla's audience members are saying it's hard to watch,maybe it's getting out of hand.
Marla The thing is a lot of people are starting to stop watching, that means it’s getting really out of hand
I’ve found that the easiest way to translate a real floor plan to a sims build is by basing the wall lengths on the windows. That tends to keep the scale pretty similar for me! ❤️
Kayla: the scale is the hardest part
Me: KAYLA USE THE MEASUREMENTS ON THE PLAN
I said the same thing but then I realized that the sims 4 doesn’t show any measurements 😭 Atleast I haven’t noticed them if they are there anyway
@@AP-pv6vk When doing measurements for these, use the doors/windows/stairs as refference-points since these usually fit 1(wall)-wide in the sims4. just mesure how many doors go along the wall.
In this one the door would be a 2-wide-single-door, the outside stairs 2-wide and inside stair 1-wide...
Then use that to measure the rest^^
Is it bad that I actually really like how she did the outside? 😂
No. It isn’t bad. The build is fine. I’m actually kinda over her self loathing act.
yorkie7624 Wdym ‘over’
@@imaan1751 over as in they are like, fed up of it and have moved on from it
taesaurus Well Ik what ‘Over’ means 😂 Idrk why I replied with what I did ngl
whos gonna tell simsie she put her stairs in the wrong spot n thats why everything was off
also the diagonal wall was like one tile off
Kayla always criticizes her builds. But he’s really good at building.
Kayla this amount of people think your awesome at building!
I
\/
Hey Kayla, i know you won’t see this, but can someone pass this on?:
Stop saying negative stuff about your building, it’s annoying now.
Frr
Even though it can be annoying because she is SUCH a good builder, I am more worried about her then annoyed so instead maybe check she's ok. I really don't mean this in a rude way at all! I’m sorry if it comes off that way but it is not the way this is intended.
Emmy Rose
Yeah I get what you mean
People have been commenting about this for ages now. I THINK she's seen it by now pal. She can say whatever she wants - it's her channel. It's not harming anyone, so her subscribers have no right to tell her what to do and not. She's not saying she is a worthless waste of space - she's mocking her video game build creations. I can't believe everyone has such strong feelings about it, and being disrespectful about it. On some videos she's mainly getting negative feedback and inappropriate "I hope she's ok" comments. She probably knows you're all coming from a good place, or at least neutral, but cut her some slack. You can literally watch her videos for free.
Florence
This was from a month ago, it’s not a new new comment and at that time Kayla hadn’t said a lot about her mental health. Also just because it doesn’t effect you doesn’t mean it doesn’t effect other people. Yeah now we know that she knows. Sorry I can’t time travel and know that then. Yeah she can say whatever she wants, shocking newsflash there: It’s her channel, no one knew that before you pointed it out, look at you and your big brain pointing that out. It wouldn’t be right to lie to her and say “go on Kayla, keep talking bad about yourself because that’s totally gonna make your self esteem better!”. That’s worse than what I just said.
I don't know, I think it looks kinda cute! Farmhouse style, adorable from the front. If you changed the items/furnishing to be more Sims-friendly, and got rid of the useless closets, I think it would be great! Just not interesting from all angles on the outside lol
"I bet your house looks like this" bruh I w i s h I was middleclass, I live in a tin box 😂😂
Kayla: go look at the side of your neighbours house
Me(lives in England and has a house In a row of atactched houses):looks at wall- the side of your house is very nice neighbour.
Me living in Sweden: * looks at a neighbour´s house * Well, at least that art deco-house has 1 window placed in the very far corner on the side wall and not in level with the door... Ususally, there is non or an odd number of windows not placed in level with each other. xD
take a shot every time she says "oh no"
Of water! Stay hydrated
You can tell I’m bad at building when I actually like this house.
I was thinking the same thing. I LIKE building, but I'm quite bad at it. No real 'sense' of where stuff should go. :P I did actually like this house. Yes, it needed some tweaking to make it 'fit' better in the Sims. . .but it wasn't bad. (And yes, the furniture layout was a bit silly. But I don't think floorplans are really laid out with decorating in mind.) But with a few tweaks, and setting the furniture different and some better landscaping. . .sure!
No. You’re likely fine at building. She’s just being self deprecating/loathing for attention.
.
This is actually one of my favorite houses she has built. I could be wrong, but Kayla has a style that she tends to stick to when it comes to building houses (how she sets up the outside, and how she layouts the floor plan.). She may have gotten used to it so when she strays from her norm, it looks off to her, when in actuality it looks like a normal house you would see in real life and doesn’t even look bad in the game.
yorkie7624 agreed
"and on that note, I'll leave you alone"
oh thank god, i've been held hostage here to watch simsie videos for 25 years-
i havent watched the video. but i know kayla will probably say thus is going is bad, but it will look good😔😔😔✊
Omg how did you guess 😅
@@embenard Its probably because when she posted it on the gallery she said it was bad, and that was before this was posted.
And make you feel that you don't have good taste or something.. I mean... When someone is good at building and say it's bad all the time you maybe would conclude you have low standards and your builds may be terrible to her.. XD
Quit saying it’s bad simsie! Your builds are GOALS ❤️🧚♂️✨
kayla: this is terrible
also kayla: builds an amazing housr
Although sims scale IS off, those floorplans usually use smaller furniture blocks to make the houses look bigger. There is no way those proportions are correct.
This is definitely the earliest I’ve ever been to a video... wow
Same here
Same☺️
Actually same
SANEEE
Same
Hey 👋 as someone who does this a lot, just a tip! If you divide the feet dimensions by four you get a very good Sims scale. If you want a little bit bigger divide by three! 🥰
I wonder if kayak will ever go a video without saying “it’s so weird”
I hate how Kayla always puts herself and her building skills down. This house was good! There’s no need to be so critical towards yourself!
This is the best part of my day. When simsie uploads
Thank you for keeping to the floor plan! It's supposed to be a challenge in my opinion, and most sim youtubers just makes it easier for themselves, which makes it way less fun to watch.
“let’s game, shall we?”
When I (attempt to) follow a floor plan like this I try to count the “tiles” on the floor plan. I know in game a counter takes up one tile, so I would count each counter as 1 tile. I do the same with doors and windows and try to size it that way. Sometimes it works, sometimes it needs adjustments, but it’s easier than just trying to guess/eyeball it.
I'm getting "let's build a farmhouse" vibes, i love it.
Omg yes T__T
I feel like the stairs should have been two-wide because the parents bedroom is huge. Oh well, you still did a great job Kayak!
Hey simsie, just wanted you to know that you’re awesome and your builds are always beautiful💙
ikr! there always amazing!
All I ever build is from floorplans because I feel like I'm so bad at building, but you've inspired me to start making my own original floorplans. Like I've built my first suburban (yes, blue) with a wrap around porch and a pond. It looks kinda fugly to me, but I'm kinda proud of it!
I cannot be the first person to think this is Otis’ house from Sex Education from the thumbnail
omg no i love sex education but i didn't saw the similarities :D
I just binged it and didn’t even notice lol
'on netflix' hahah thanks i almost went to hbo wtf
I used to follow a lot of floor plans for Sims 2 builds. I just built for function, not for looks, so I just did auto roof. For scale, 2 feet works well to scale to one (big Sims 2) square, so in Sims 4, one little square would be 1 ft. I would skip closets to have more usable space. Keep bathrooms small, again for more usable space. Master closets in larger homes could be baby bedrooms. For Sims 2 specifically, garages were a good place for a home business, and in larger floor plans, the formal dining room is a good place for homework desks.
I just recently got Sims 4 thanks to Cottage Living, so time to start trying to build again.
Ratsley, in Kayla's 100 baby challenge, is kinda like scabbers. Kayla complains about how stupid it is, but when it dies she's completely devestated. Like Ron in the prisoner of Azkaban
Oml i like you already
I see your point - Gotta love Harry Potter
Ron was and still is devastated
Hey, rats are friends. I like rats
Yeah but Ratsley isn’t a TRAITOR WHO CAUSES THE DEATH OF JAMES AND LILY POTTER i’m sorry i’m not over that yet
I made this floor plan in TS3 years ago and it was so hard but worth it in the end, I counted by grid when I made the size as I do for all house plans I make but I can't remember how big it was and I don't have that save file anymore. I think this turned out pretty good and you have more options in TS4 like the rounded counters and roofs are much easier in TS4 too. For the indoor stairs I had 2 tiles between laundry and stairs rather than the narrow 1 tile corridor. 👍👌
I’ve just realised something... Maybe the sims starter homes are build with the same concept as this floor plan. It’s supposed to indicate different rooms but also is a blank space. Like you have everything you need but there is enough space for you to decorate according to your personality and taste 🤔
me, who builds real life houses and floorplans almost all the time: .. you’re making this so much harder than i thought it was? last time i did it, it was not this hard
When all you can do is make houses from floor plans-
o__O
I actually used a couple of similar floor plans, different but similar styles, to build a couple new mansions in Del Sol Valley for the Bailey-Moon family and my personal get famous SIM. They were a challenge but turned out really nicely. I did take a few liberties on the floorplans and what nots, but I was really happy with how they turned out when I finally finished them. You're absolutely right though. Real houses do look very odd when you try to build them in the SIMs. No idea why.
"Its look better in the real life" she said that 100 times
Lol she always talks about how she hates what she’s doing
The kitchen looks like what someone would build the first time they build in sims... Kayla it’s not your fault
Kayak: *scales down the house*
Also Kayak: Why is the scaling off???
This floor plan looks like it’d be a house EA would build and call “good”.
00:53 this gives me strong Sims 2 vibes, but a nice Sims 2 house 😂
Simsie time, simsie time, simsie time, it’s simsie time, lil simsie time
Is this meant to be in the time of mail time from Blues Clues?
Or maybe Adventure time?
You did a great job of recreating a real house into the sims. I really want to try this; as my friend just got her own dream out of a Victorian house and recreate it in the sims.
I actually really wanna do this but it’s so hard to find good floorplans!
“Look at the side of your neighbours house”
Me, a person who lives in the city, in a skyscraper, in a complex of skyscrapers: 🧐
Kayak: this build is bad i hate it
The rest of us: omg that house is adorable
*Staring at wall intensifies*
She better stop shaming her builds because its so beautiful ✨😊 and she slayed 💅 without knowing it
When I try and build from a real life floor plan, I consider the furniture and how it’s layed out in the floor plan by assuming that a bed is 1x3, counter top is a 1x1, sofa is a 1x2, and a couch a 1x3. I then draw it out on dotted paper using the ‘furniture’ as guides for how big it should be (like bullet journal paper) and then I make it in the sims. It takes a lot of the frustration out of around trying to make it to scale for in the sims 4 lol
You should really try getting a camera that can record you at 60 fps because the lips and audio are out of sync
I challenge you to build a dutch house (www.funda.nl or .com), because it's really different then the american houses
I hope you'll take the challenge
J. K funda is a really good site to get inspiration!
i refreshed lilsimsie's site literally 5 mins just to find it in my recommend from five mins ago
Girl! You are amazing at building homes in sims! I’ve tried too watch others and I just keep coming back too your videos. You got me back into playing sims and wanting too learn how too build my own sims homes. I’m learning SOOO much! Keep up the great content! 🙂
Ps. Snap is so cute! I have two cats of my own. They are my fur babies 🙂
EA: *Releases expansion pack*. Lilsimsie: hippity hoppity time to renovate that property! (This was not my quote but I do not know the original commenter)
Honestly I LOVE this house because it’s...normal? I love builds based off real life lived in houses because for me it increases immersion. And like, I love the way it’s decorated because it looks totally realistic. Everyone’s house is weird irl.
Hi Kayla!
Honestly, as an interior designer, she did great with this building and even tho the actual furniture is horrible she made it look nice and cozy. And the outside was pretty too.
I know she mostly builds houses, but if she’s looking for a challenge, Kayla should find a floor plan of a church and try to recreate that
i've tried this floor plan challenge a few times, and a method i found to sort of guide me and make things easier (at least slightly) is to make it at/around about half-scale.
for example: if a room is 14 ft by 12 ft, i make it a 7x6 room. if a room is 9 ft by 13 feet, i cut each number in half, then round it up, making it a 5x7 room. or, if they're really specific (down to the inch), i round up or down accordingly (if the amount of inches is closer to a foot, i round up. if it's farther, i round down.)
i'm not an expert at all, but as a perfectionist (or maybe it's just my perpetual fear of failure), i try to make things easier for myself when and where i can. i hope that this tip helps?? even if kayla never sees this comment, i don't mind sharing what helps
Kayak: "This house definitely has a lot of storage"
*_Flashbacks zu Bibis Einbauschränken_*

LeadingTheCheer
Guck dir ihre Haustour an haha
Die berühmt berüchtigte BibisBeautypalace hat letztens eine Haustour hochgeladen, und die Hälfte des Hauses sind Schränke.. Das ist irgendwie so n weirdes deutsches Mini-Meme geworden, und daran musste ich da denken xD
Kayak? I love it
I usually print the floor plan out, then build tiles relative to the doors and windows; for example: front foor is usually 2 tiles, window is usually 1 tile, and so on.
I like this, when you actually keep to the rules 😂 do more! ✨
My boyfriend and i are currently looking at apartments, and let me tell you something about too much storage. there were these studio apartments we were looking at that had anywhere from four to up to SIX closets. Three of them were on the same wall!! We were joking around that we could each have a desk in a closet, but then when looking at the floor plan we realized we would literally HAVE to do that because they wasted so much room on closets.
