James’ tiny houses look like they could be from a Slyvanian Families set whilst mine bear a closer resemblance to the cardboard box the set comes in 😭

Now I want to see a home with the worst rated…but would James actually install my first pets?
EDIT: got to very end.. looks like it!
He may have to use my first pet stuff but he also gets Batuu. Batuu yeah!
I'm excited to see what James does with it. I honestly think it could end up looking really nice! Get to Work and Journey to Batuu both have a lot of industrial-looking items, and those weird pipe decorations from My First Pet Stuff could work well with that theme. You could also make a nice family home, since My First Pet Stuff has a lot of items that work well for children, and Journey to Batuu could work for a nice bedroom for a Star Wars obsessed child or teen.
I was just gonna say this lol
Ultimate challenge.
Loved this!
Here's an idea: do a similar video, but with the most-owned packs from the survey. Given that not all people have bought all packs, a build like that means it could be used by most people in this community
I second this!
I love this idea!
Great idea! 💯
Ohhh this is brilliant! I watched that video after I read this comment, so I was keeping an eye out - I think that would be Desert Luxe, Tiny Living, Parenthood, & Seasons. It would lend itself to trying to make a family microhome, which are my favorites. (I don't usually do 32 tiles with kids, at least not beyond one parent and one kid. But I've squeezed many a family of 4 into 64.)
What a cool idea !
When he discovered that he can make use of the attic as free space to make a bedroom I actually went sweet, big living area for a tiny home that's new for him! Should have known he'd find a way to keep it tiny and squeezed in spaces. 😄😄
How does he play in these builds? I think I'm brainwashed by a childhood playing Sims 1 & 2 where two Sims could get stuck trying to walk across a 3x3 room, but I swear my Sims still have routing issues in small entryways. Mostly when a big dog is involved, my Sim's dog laid down in the entrance of her bathroom, and she couldn't get out.
@@ILuvAyeAye he's testing it with 1 sim I'm sure it gets more complicated with 2 which is how much space this build can accommodate I think realistically with a 2 sim household you'd have to carefully plan your sims movement luckily with the hallway and every room being sectioned off that should be possible they might have to be in a line in hallways or if two go in opposite directions in them one sim might have to move into another room or go back where they came from to let the other pass lol
James: Builds the tiniest little micro cottage
Also James: What if it had SIX ROOMS!
Never change, James. Never change. 😂
The last time I was this early, James was known as the Sim Supply
lol us
😂😂
Wait... That is the same person?? I was wondering but was not sure lol
Flabaliki
Could not stop thinking about how stressful it’d be to climb a ladder with a hot cup of coffee 😂
🤣 I think in real life, you'd keep a little electric kettle on your bedside table, tote water to bed in a Nalgene every night, and make your tea from bed every morning. The real question is how they got the bed up there....
I am playing a runaway teen who "found" a 3x3 treehouse on top of two ladders. I think it looks cozy and almost realistic... Except for the counter, that she must have rented a crane to install. 😅 The Sims 4 insists she couldn't possibly use the top of her mini fridge to prepare food, and she insists on having negative moodlets when I make her live off applesauce, I ran out of patience. (I used a corner counter piece, it kind of looks like a bedside stand if you squint.)
@@ILuvAyeAye omg id love to see this build! Would you mind sharing it to the gallery?
@@ILuvAyeAye The way you get large furniture into places like that irl is as convoluted and expensive as you'd think. Basically, remove wall, crane to lift things up or down, replace wall.
Quite expensive lol
@@ILuvAyeAye you could place a counter pretending a friend built it in place for her, that way logically only the boards and raw material would have to have gotten carried up the ladder. Sounds like a fun story line you’re playing tho!
Boxed bed frame. Boxed mattress. Unbox and assemble everything once you get it up the ladder. Lol. Same with the rug. Toss it up the ladder while it's rolled.
15:27 when tile count matters, I find a much more usable 4 tile bathroom is to place it in a 'T' shape.
The door on the centre of the long side. Then you have 3 little nooks, for a sink, shower, toilet and a clear tile in the middle.
oooh smart, I'm stealing that
oh, thanks for sharing, i could use that!
Tbh this tiny house looks real. Looks lived in because we all know in real life our house can be a little mixed-matchy and kind of controlled chaos 🤣
Hehe, agreed xD. Some have just one style and those houses look so sterile and boring..!
Holy claustrophobia! I love this as a build challenge but would hate living here 😂
I've got nothing against living in a small space (I say from my studio apartment) but both in the Sims and real life, when you've got a bunch of even tinier rooms inside a tiny house, I start feeling trapped. I've got a galley kitchen, and I hate it so much. That said, I think the tiny rooms he built are pretty realistic for British cottages, and old builds in general - tiny rooms were much easier to heat, open concept is very modern.
@@ILuvAyeAye Totally! Im going to download this house to play in as is, but I'll work on renovating it to be more modern for suree hahaha
truly! Watching this video was a real challenge for me! Had to look away a couple of times!
This is a Mansion compared to some tiny NYC apartments. Or even some living pods in Tokyo.
This cottage is so cute I love it! Did not anticipate such a fabulous bedroom in the attic but it looked so cozy and sweet!
Yeah it’s my favorite part about the whole build because it’s technically free space! I’ll be adding that into every micro home I build from now on haha
I feel like this is a tiny cottage that was only partly renovated by a single (and kinda broke) parent excited to move to the countryside with their kid and start fresh! The newer-looking furniture came with them, the older-looking one was either left behind by the cottage's previous owners or donated by their kindly rural neighbours. 🌻✌ (Also, can't help thinking that the kid could be a werewolf and the parent decided to move to the countryside so their kid would have more freedom! Like that anime film, Wolf Children.)
Oh no, now you HAVE to do one with the worst packs too
YESSSS
Awwh batuuu yeahh hahaha
That attic space is brilliant! I really wish you could hire a farmhand with cottage living, like similar to the butler service. It would be really cute to put a small cottage like this on a larger property and have your farmhand stay in it and tend the animals and crops.
Or you could make a playable sim that is the farmhand living there with a rich family, and then forbidden romance.... Hahah
My number one pet peeve with building in the sims 4 which is that even the shortest wall height is still reasonably tall side. I know the scale of the game in general is a bit out of whack but the wall heights are genuinely kind of annoying because I want to build old fashioned cottages and small huts and things but they always look really goofy 😭James has done a pretty good job here imo
Platforms! You can make the inside of the house much shorter and try to bury the outside with bushes and shrubs to make it look really short!
@@TyeDyeLollipop16 I do do this sometimes!! It works well as a work-around for single floor buildings with no basement but anything with multiple floors is still a problem 😔
So cute. I always feel reticent to make builds that don't include a double bed, but if none of your Sims live with a partner, it's silly. In the real world, if you are looking to woohoo with a guest, I've never heard of a lack of a double bed stopping a couple. In the Sims, that's what showers are for. Or bushes.
(To be fair: I am 5'6". Growing up as a teen in a cramped city, a double bed seemed like a unnecessary luxury that none of my friends had... Except for my very tall friend, whose feet started hanging off the side of his single bed in middle school.)
That said, it can be a pain in the Sims, because I tend to use the University shower for micro-homes, and you can't woohoo in that one.
That attic space is amazing! Also when James said he wanted to fit a second bedroom I was liked whaaaaaat but it turned out so nice!!
You should try building a tiny home that qualifies to finish the mansion baron aspiration.
Honestly, James gives me inspiration to play and build even when I don't have the energy to get out of bed :')
Maybe the living room could have been used as cold storage before the renovation? Those shelves could be real vintage!
What's really funny, is that, in the U.K. there WERE actually cottages that were this small, ( although they have all been extended over the years ) and large farm labouring families used to live in them lol. However, the downstairs space would have been all one space, and the whole of the attic could be used, the toilet was an outhouse outside, and the 'bath' would have been a metal tub that would have been stored outside, and brought in and placed in front of the fireplace (it's amazing how people used to live ... and still do, in places around the world.)
Next you need to build the house using the worst packs
More builds yes I actually love these. . Can we get a renovation series where you go back and redo some of your early builds. . 😊
This is so cute! I might have to buy that clutter pack, but I also think I might need to gut the downstairs. About the too tall walls, I built a tiny thatched cottage that was a little sunken into the ground for lower walls.
Love this build, so cozy and idyllic. I really love the sunroom.
Love the attic bedroom! I think it’s a better call to not put a mirror in the attic. Rooms built into roofs are a little bit finicky to play in with the walls all the way up, so it’s better to have everything just be floor standing furniture. Would love to see more builds inspired by the survey!
I'm surprised there isn't a small tabletop mirror in the game yet (unless there's one in a pack he wasn't using?)
i love the fact that this man genuienly put 2 bedrooms and a full bath into 32 tiles, and then full on insisted on "i need my sunroom!" istg
I LOVE when James takes on challenges like this, cuz:
1. It's interesting to see him figuring things out like the layout or which furniture to use, since he has limited options.
2. It makes it more possible for me to download it, cuz I'm broke and I don't have every single Sims 4 pack 😂
I love your tiny builds!! Thanks James, best content on TH-cam.
I am amazed that tiny kitchen works, that’s so tight a space. The fridge clipping into the counter had me laughing. Incredible how much can be squished into a tiny home.
Wow this turned out amazing! I love the attic/loft with free space! So cool!
I just love this one. It feels so realistic with the funky little spaces to work around. It turned out so charming, and very cozy! :)
The first video I ever watched on your channel was a super tiny home build years ago. Your tiny builds never ever get old so keep em coming!!!
this is so cute
You should also try to build with the worst packs. I think that would be good challenge too :) Especially the Batuu stuff :D
I can't believe how much you managed to pack into such a small space while still making it usable! I wonder if you'd still be making a "worst packs" house if Batuu wasn't going to feature to lessen the pain of "my first pets"...
This is the cutest little cramped house!!
Looks great! Love the attic space idea, definitely using that. Instead of archways, it might be an idea to use spandrels? Would open up the space more but still seperate the rooms :) Watched the rest of the video, you actually do do that, sorry :D
Your builds give me too many ideas for new saves. And I appreciate it thoroughly.
I was feeling really anxious but watching this made it better :)
I recently moved to the UK, and I always see those terraced houses that look so small from the outside. I can never understand the layout, but now I’m going to imagine them like this 😂
The really small ones are called "two up, two down": two rooms upstairs (bedroom, bathroom), two rooms downstairs (kitchen/dining, sitting).
The front door opens into the hallway (which isn't counted as a room). On one side of the hallway there is the staircase to the upstairs, on the other side there are the doors to the two downstiars rooms.
That attic space is dope!
you can actually use the 9 and 0 keys on mirrors to move them up and down on the wall on case you didn't know:) only discovered it myself recently and it's been a life saver
Dude! I genuinely love this! I also appreciate that it's in real time as well. I don't have cottage living, but I have Tiny living so I think I could make my own version of this. Thanks for the inspo
Amazing! You could really take your builds to the next level with the tool mod. You can use it to adjust mirror heights and it gives you much more control over sizing than using the bracket keys.
James has such good energy! LET’S GO!!!! thanks for brightening my days, James!!
I feel so smart that the first three dlc i bought were Seasons, Dream Home Decorator and Tiny Living omg Looks like I’ll have to get Cottage Living next
absolutely cannot wait for the Get to Work/Batuu/My First Pets Stuff/Bust the Dust build
Nancy and Geoffrey like, "Hey, we can buy this tiny home under one of our shell companies. It can be our little hideout."
Such clever use of the roof space… James knocks the structure out of the park again! The first floor room layout and decor choices are a little off for me, but easily replaced. Great build James! 💜😊
I’m surprised you fit so much stuff in a micro home! I hope worst rated doesn’t involve my first pets stuff 😂
Now I look forward to the Batu, Get To Work, My First Pet Stuff, and Bust The Dust build.... I really do
I've learned so much from this channel. Thank you for giving constant inspiration!
Cute build for sure. James is always an inspiration for building
Perfect size and price for a young couple to have spent a little time in an apartment in the city, then pursue their dream of moving to the countryside for a slower-paced life (and some increased skill building!)
I like this house. I hope it's on the gallery.
I hope james does a Worst pack build 😁 bigger house place in Batu lol
I’ve been wondering what a tiny house using attic space would be like! This is fantastic!!
I would love to see you build houses from another country/region too! As a Dutch person who lived in Austria for some years, maybe try a Dutch Farmhouse? Or a canal house? A traditional Austrian house? I think it's such a different style than what we usually see you build :)
Fantastic build! I think this is one of my favorites from you. I love it.
Tks James
Love this build! These are some of my favorite packs ❤
Came from watching the summit to here to try to remember that I don’t actually hate The Sims… Also, have you ever tried to build a house with premade rooms?
Blessed is the person who gets a mug of tea up a ladder
When you said cabinetry all I could think of was to sing "Cabinets" :P
I think tiny living's 70's style furniture works in a cottage bc a lot of cottages where i'm from haven't been remodeled since the 60's or 70's so you totally see more "modern"/retro style furniture in them
After watching James's videos, I have more fun building!! This tiny cottage looks soooo cute, i wanna live there!!
i am so impressed by your patience and skills! this is so awesome
James: we're gonna build a house using the best packs!
Me: ahhh... yeah... Batuu??
Could also also do a challenge of a) only using second best packs (seasons, werewolves, paranormal, blooming rooms) and b) worst packs just for kicks (get to work, batuu, my first pet stuff oh no, bust the dust eek). But look, the second best group actually go really well together. And you can prove the Batuu haters wrong with a Get to Work AND Batuu combo and make an awesome sci fi build-though too bad you aren’t getting much help from the stuff pack and kit for this group.
Love it!! That attic trick is so nifty. Gotta try it
james you are so amazing at building! i ended up buying a few packs with my money from work and now i build a lot and are trying to do a generations play!
I can't wait to see the best house you can make from only the worst packs.
21:00 Hilarious 😹. That really is me and I make my sims do it too.
James! I didn’t know you could make a sim walk in a roofed area (4:55 )!🤯
loved this video ((: such a cool idea, might try it for myself using your results
Can you make a built with the worst ones? I really really really want to see you use a LOT of batuu stuff
Immediately downloaded. Fantastic build.
Expect for that I'd probably have a basement library (with books, games, etc.) is that something I'd love to live in :D
Ooh the thumbnail house looks lovely!
very nice! i love playing with micro homes, this one will be fun
Oh James I can't wait to see you build with my first pet stuff pack!!! Hahaha!!!
That’s adorable and I am shocked you were able to creat a full functional TWO BEDROOM micro cottage for less than $40,000 simoleons 🎉
This was a great video, I was hooked to my screen from start to finish. I got all these packs too. ^^
I'm so excited to see James forced to build with my first pet stuff lmao
I think you can raise/lower mirrors using the F keys...
This is such a great idea!! 🐣
Love a sneaky lil' attic!
What you can do to get the plants to germinate, is to plant them outside and when they start sprouting, move to the pots.
You don't have to have the cross-stitch kit in your inventory. I frequently put mine on the floor next to a chair or even, occasionally, on a fireplace mantle. I give everyone a knitting bag for their inventory, but the cross-stitch kit is shared by the household with no issues.
Just a thought, and I'll try it when I play later, but if you size down the table that was under the loft bed, and the cross stitch, if it would be playable? Loved your quote "not great to play in, but great to look at" only because all your builds are great to look at....even I am not crazy about the style, I love your entusiasm and the pride you take in your builds. Just saw the end of this video... the worst packs .... AHHH BATUUUUU....... sorry, couldn't help it 😉💕
Besides the base game building if I download this lot nothing will be missing 😂 I actually own all these packs.
I will never get over Australian people calling flip flops, thongs. I mean they are kind things for your feet lmao
OMG I only learnt today that you can use the space where the roof is? That's just changed a few things
You have to be particular about how much space is there, but yeah! It's a great way to get a closed in space when starting Rags to Riches.
love me some james turner tiny home
The Captain Planet reference! Love.
i would love to see a version of this that is with the most owned packs from each category
PLEASEEEE desperately renovate "The old salt house" in San Myshuno.
Nothing is lined up and they have a painting over a window..... that's all I need to explain!
-Tanika🙂
Chaos honestly. Can't wait to see deli remodel it 😜
the walls in the attic are actual walls so you could've painted them or put wall paper up there
loved this so so much
this floorplan is... something else
