One of my favorite things to make are "commune" sorts of builds. Multi-family lots and everything, a garden for everyone, communal dining area, etc. It's so fun.
Yes, like Late Night from The Sims 3! That was a celeb city pack with a celebrity neighbourhood and a big city with subways, food trucks and hotspot nightclub venues. I miss that pack so much and I’m glad we’re finally able to build apartments with the new pack like we could in The Sims 3!!
This build is perfect for legacy challenges. Especially when you are farther along, have more money, and want your grandparent sims on the same lot but different houses. Not to mention as you get more money you could turn them into two story or more houses to accommodate bigger families
Here in the Netherlands townhouses are very common. So your house is attached to two other houses. I wish this was somehow an option in the sims (functional in like actual gameplay) cause it would make the world feel way less American and it would be a really fun different way to build houses Edit: who knew past me was literally predicting the next upcoming "for rent" ep lmaoo
If anyone else wants to use that pergola AND have it be undercover - I’ve experimented a lot with this, and you can perfectly fit a really low plain glass roof (the full glass one) exactly over this pergola with no eaves, and use a matching wood on the small triangle walls and it looks good and is almost seamless! It basically is like the glass isn’t there, and then it counts as under cover for game purposes!
I'm thinking that the "neighborly" expansion pack might add this sort of functionality or even duplexes and townhouses - which would honestly be a dream 😍
10:30 "i wanted it to seem like two different people live here, even though obviously in the sims you can't do that" The apartment rent pack: It might seem crazy what i'm about to say
I love that Kayla is coming out of her comfort zone & trying to build differently, it's refreshing to see what she comes up with when she's not doubting herself and holding back, plus she's excited about the different changes & enjoying herself, I love to see it🥰very proud❤❤❤
I think I remember hearing at the time that the sims team was worried about having to many lots because the game wouldn't no longer run well on lowe end computers. This was before they put out that update specifically for people with lower end computers. After that thet didn't seem worried about lots anymore
Kayla has been an amazing influencer and it melts my heart to see her doing this jobs with logitech, samsung, blixity, fae farm… I think the number of companies looking for her work are increasing and it makes me really happy!! You go bestie!
You built the perfect lot for my twin sims 👏 One is an athlete so the left house would be perfect for him with the home gym and the other is an artist so the detached part in the back of the right house would be a perfect art studio (they’ve actually just aged up into teens but I already have their entire life planned out oops 🤪)
It's so funny how little details can be so satisfying in builds. Like, I love the equipment closet so much! It just adds this bit of character and realism to the house.
Have you considered going back in and making these 2 rental lots now that the apartments pack is out? It could allow for a more accurate "2 families, 2 houses" type thing
I so relate to your realization that you didn't put a door to the bedroom- I made a rental lot a couple days ago, spent hours decorating each of the 4 units, was so proud of it.... and there was *no door leading into the second lot*! it took me... an embarrassing amount of legitimate gameplay to realize this
I very much might use this build for Dustin Broke, Johnny Zest, Dirk Dreamer, and Lilith Pleasant... I'll tweak some of the furnishing to better fit my headcanons for Dustin (who gained fame as a vlogger in high school) but this concept is really great. And the houses are really cute! I just have to overcome my Tiny Home addiction. Hahahaha 😆
That lot wants to be apartments. There are two types of apartment buildings that are super common in Los Angeles. One of them is called a dingbat and the other is called a garden Court or cottage Court. I hope they put apartments in the next pack because that lot needs to be something that is quintessentially LA
I have done a similar build on this lot following the driveway (there is a stone floor pattern that make it work better). I use the 2nd house for roommates who pay rent (sometimes I do look my door from them).
oh wow! this build is just in time for my legacy storyline! I was going to put two families in these houses (they're twins, a sister, who's going to be married soon and have kids and her brother who is a gamer and/or comedian) I think these builds fit their aesthetics really well! the girl was supposed to work from home and I didn't know which job I should give her. now I think she's going to be a cooking youtuber! and she also does yoga and loves baking! It's perfect for my sims😭
17:44 the thing is, a clothing rack full of silly costumes like a hotdog, sounds exactly like something the sims would have in their game??? Like theyre always putting random silly things in their game, but this sounds like it would actually be a genuine thing theyd have.
Get Famous is one of my favorite packs in the sims 4 because i feel like there's so many ways to become famous, but the world makes me cry inside. I feel like especially the "starter lot" neighborhood with its more midcentury architecture could have been so cool, and yet - and yet.
I honestly feel like the big difference between the dark wood and muted wallpaper, and neon lights and modern tech stuff is REALLY cool! it's definitely a vibe, imma go build a house like that now
I actually LOVE this house and am gonna download it tonight for my legacy occult sim (gen 1, but gen 4 of his own fam) to move into with his alien toddler!! This is the vibe I wanted -- suburban but not. I'm gonna use the empty nextdoor home for his at home-science lab since that's his career and it'll blend into the neighborhood instead of being in a basement
pretty cool especially because now we have the for-rent pack it could be like you bought this lot and you build another house on your property and rent it out.
I just started watching you about a week ago and I have been loving your videos! I have watched at least 15 in the last week and I have started playing the sims 4 more! I have had the game fora few years but I can never find good already built houses! I looked at your account and found this plot but I did it in a different world. I have been doing the empty house and I am just finishing for now I’m about to start playing with my two sims and it’s the perfect size! I love your builds so much and it’s so easy to find the over all layout on the videos!
When I had a family on that lot, I made an abandoned lot with no house on the right, an unoccupied house on the left, and my family’s house in the middle. Funny how this would be a great place for townhouses if it were in a DIFFERENT neighborhood.
During one of my legacy challenges, I did exactly that. Gen 4 lived on this exact lot in one of the three same looking tiny houses I've built there and I used the roommate system to have neighbours in the other two houses.
Logitech is so sweet to have donated on behalf of your pet - what an amazing partner to have support you and your channel! ❤I’m not crying…it’s just my allergies 🥹
I do this a lot in my save file. That 50x40 is three houses that I built for the Crumplebottom witch sisters from TS3 I decided to make for the TS4. I got the idea from the “Growing Up Crumplebottom” show that pops up in the game sometimes. They live there with their spouses and kids, sharing a backyard like Big Love and have a studio in the basement for their reality show 😂 they also have a secret spell casting room
I was inspired and took your two houses and turned them into 5 houses, a kids park, and a community garden all on the same lot. Would be really great for a generations/not so berry play through.
I've had various sims on this lot for a while. I hit up debug for a spanish style house and plants n stuff to fill half the lot, put in a debug garage on the back of the lot and chainlinkfenced it. Then I parked paparazzi vans and limos back there. They have to come from somewhere, right? In my world, that's where they garage their vans and the limo co and the paparazzi work together to annoy the celebs. The house my sim lives in on is about 30x20, house is spanish style, has a circular driveway and a big fence =p I figure I had room to grow if I wanted to do a legacy.
you should take the opportunity and use this connected lots thing and make half of a duplex on one lot and the other half on the other lot and make them look like 1 entire build from the outside. then you can ligit have 2 different families in one house :)
This could be so cute as like a "famous gamer sim buys aging parents the house next door" storyline! That way the family stays together and is controllable but there's a degree of separation still?
I have a great Idea for a Build! some type of BIG lot, in a foresty area, and in the very front is a more modern build, and somewhere through the forest in the huge back yard and trails is a abandoned old Victorian house falling apart. that the owners didn't know was on the property when purchasing it!
Imagine they're both streamer/content creator friends, lol. So each having their own office space that they play together from. Almost funnier if they don't know their friend is their neighbor. Maybe both Vtubers or something? Lol.
These houses would be perfect for a sorta "girl next door" enemies to lovers where the two families have open doors to each other bc dads are best friends or something
Such a cute idea!!
this just gave me an idea for a legacy challege and maybe put like a retail store where the families are partners (using the live in business mod)
it’s giving alexa and katie but they were bsfs so 😂
LaCienega and Penny except they don’t like each other 👀☠️
imma be honest, they upgraded spa day, but where is literally every other pack upgraded??? like stop putting out new stuff when you could rework what already exists
I wish The Sims Team could redesign old worlds, like imagine we could have beach houses in del sol valley😭
dude and the santa monica pier and venice beach like such a missed opportunity
@@hypocrite4318 frrr
@@_hydra_5221 yk what doest that highschool world have like a pier and rides they should implement that same tech for a refresh bc my LA native self was so disappointed when I got the pack
Omg so true
They don’t even let vacation worlds be liveable so doubt they will redesign anything
2 houses on 1 lot would work so much better if there was a better simoleon money system. Where each sim held their own simoleons
there's a mod called SNB that sort of implements this by allowing each sim to have a bank account.
yeah I want that so bad. That would also b nice if you want your sim's kids to have an allowance or something.
Snb bank mod works very well highly recomend
But not for console players sadly

i’d honestly love a game/stuff pack that’s JUST a world of a bunch of small and close together lots. no build required, no cas needed jsut tiny lots
If I could just have multiple empty worlds as a game pack….that would be a dream ❤
maybe build items if its a world.
@@summerrosefg yeah
wait I love this idea
"Sims are not that smart but they're also not completely useless" is soooo true😂😂😂
Very much applicable to the average human being
@@marcjohnson8520
Humans are smart in the fact that the brain is controlling so many things at once. External knowledge is a different story 😅
del sol valley had so much potential, i kinda wish del sol valley and san myshuno were one big city pack
it's so pretty and looks lived in, reminds me of my real city I wish there were more lots for my sims
Yes, like Late Night from The Sims 3! That was a celeb city pack with a celebrity neighbourhood and a big city with subways, food trucks and hotspot nightclub venues. I miss that pack so much and I’m glad we’re finally able to build apartments with the new pack like we could in The Sims 3!!
I’m watching this after the apartments pack was announced and it would be perfect for two families to live here 😊
That's what I was thinking! And it's very realistic for somewhere like LA.

Edit: who knew past me was literally predicting the next upcoming "for rent" ep lmaoo
We have plenty of townhouses here in the USA too, so I have no idea why EA doesn’t include them in the sims 4.
If anyone else wants to use that pergola AND have it be undercover - I’ve experimented a lot with this, and you can perfectly fit a really low plain glass roof (the full glass one) exactly over this pergola with no eaves, and use a matching wood on the small triangle walls and it looks good and is almost seamless! It basically is like the glass isn’t there, and then it counts as under cover for game purposes!
Clever!
Honestly love the idea of multiple houses in the lot to use with the roommates function! That would be so easy to do!
i did this on the exact same lot... but i used debug houses and one actual house so it looked close together but less annoying to play
I'm thinking that the "neighborly" expansion pack might add this sort of functionality or even duplexes and townhouses - which would honestly be a dream 😍
Yess really hope all these spilt house builds recently r a hint!
Neighborly? Damn I wanted a fairy pack 😭
I just wanna live out my Portals fantasy
You were right!!!!

I really think they intended three small lots there and then either they ran out of time or EA said they had to have a big lot
@GingerxJones I’m sure they have people overseeing the team and they most likely have the final say on things
I think I remember hearing at the time that the sims team was worried about having to many lots because the game wouldn't no longer run well on lowe end computers. This was before they put out that update specifically for people with lower end computers. After that thet didn't seem worried about lots anymore
That, or maybe the fact that you can't put walls right up to the edge of the lot
Kayla has been an amazing influencer and it melts my heart to see her doing this jobs with logitech, samsung, blixity, fae farm… I think the number of companies looking for her work are increasing and it makes me really happy!! You go bestie!
I am loving these creative ideas like the two houses on one lot and the cruise ship.❤️ cannot wait for more
You built the perfect lot for my twin sims 👏
One is an athlete so the left house would be perfect for him with the home gym and the other is an artist so the detached part in the back of the right house would be a perfect art studio (they’ve actually just aged up into teens but I already have their entire life planned out oops 🤪)
I absolutely LOVE this!!! Both of these houses look so good together and they fill the lot up sooo well
i think you could have fit 3! the two on the right could be a duplex or they could be a trio of townhouses!
I am loving these longer videos with the more unique and creative builds
“two separate sims live here but obviously you can’t do that” little for she know now you can loll 10:31
This is the BEST thing you’ve ever done. I’m so serious. Please do more of 2 houses on one lot. Absolutely amazing

"oh those are really weird... IM GONNA USE THOSE 🤩"
I love you, Kayla. I just love you.
I feel like it gives (especially the back garden) Sims free play vibes and I'm here for it!
It’s so much more interesting having hobby rooms instead of extra bedrooms
I very much might use this build for Dustin Broke, Johnny Zest, Dirk Dreamer, and Lilith Pleasant...

This would be good for roommates if you didn't want them in your own space! Or an extended family stay with the new packs?
Absolutely love that middle kitchen layout

Nice house concept Kayla. One thing you forgot to add was a chimney to go with the fireplace.

I can't believe simsie predicted for rent
Now that rent is out imagine the possibilities 😍
Just putting this out there, but I really liked how it looked with the red dining chairs. It brought out the reds in the rug.
the main house reminds me of houses in Alentejo (portugal) and it feels so incredibly familiar and nostalgic for me 😭
We’ve always been including double housing bc ea makes huge lots, expansion pack that lets us would b great 😌 but probably glitchy
Imagine they're both streamer/content creator friends, lol. So each having their own office space that they play together from. Almost funnier if they don't know their friend is their neighbor. Maybe both Vtubers or something? Lol.
