These apartments were the ones I built for round 2 of Gummilutt's 'Apartment Mania ' contest. It contains four studio loft apartments below 1,400 in rent. I did some updates to it since the contest such as removing the great divide edging as it doesn't suit a lot of people's play style, it creates more rent but not by too much.
For a full tour, you can watch this walkthrough video
I have included a residential version for those who would like to make any architectural changes before converting to an apartment lot ('changeLotZoning apartmentbase'), otherwise the 'apartment' version is ready to go as playable apartments

Unit Details:
- double bed
- loft window blinds or curtains
- wall Phone
- sprinkler system
- garbage chute (all next to entry doors)
- dresser
- small dining table + 2 chairs
- study desk + chair
- bookshelf
- 1-3 plants
- bathroom w/
-sink
-toilet
-mirror
-shower
-hand towel
All Units except R:
TV
loveseat
All Units except OB:
Reading Chair
Apartment G (Green)
Rent: 1,164
This unit is decorated in a main theme of Green with beige and brown accents. This unit has a television and love-seat. The bookshelf is located next between the entrance and the entertainment area, against the wall of the ladder shaft. There is a dark green reading chair in the corner. The resident plant buddies are a pot of roses, a triple grass planter, and hanging fern. The desk is located in the loft on the far side of the bed next to the window. The lights in the is unit are mainly string lights. The kitchen has dried herbs and some cricket paddles which I think look like old bread peels.
My idea for the sim that lives here is a plant-lover/nature enthusiast of any aspiration. They make sure their plants get all the light coming in from the tall windows. This is why there is a green motif and a lot of earth tones plus the multiple forms of plant life instead of the standard 1. There is even framed art for Three Lakes to emphasize natural beauty.
Apartment OB (Orange/Black)
Rent: 1,289
This unit is decorated in a main theme of complimentary colors orange and blue with black accents. This unit has a television and two modular seats pushed together. The Bookshelf is located in the study nook next to the desk. The resident plant buddy is a hanging orange orchid right outside the bathroom entrance. The desk is located against the back wall of the study nook and has an extra shelf above it for placing trinkets and acquired knick-knacks. The lights in the is unit are mainly black track spotlights. The kitchen has hanging pots and decorative salt and pepper shakers in the corner.
I imagine a pleasure sim living here, one that likes travelling and rather spends their hard earned money on that and going out then finding a permanent home for the time being. They have a penchant for oceanic places as evident by their bedroom posters and items, plus the fish tank.
Apartment R (Red)
Rent: 1,279
This unit is decorated in a main theme of red with white and black accents. This unit does not have a TV but a chess set for entertainment. The bookshelf is located in the loft with a red reading chair. The resident plant buddy is a cactus underneath the front window. The lights in the is unit are mainly industrial bulbs that come from the wall. The desk is located in the main area across from the kitchen. The kitchen has hanging pots and decorative pans on the wall.
I imagine a bookish, logical-minded sim living here. One who finds more entertainment in learning and solving puzzles than mindless means of just consuming and not getting a skill out of it. This is why there is a chess set instead of a TV and the only loft with a bookshelf/reading area in it.
Apartment T (Teal)
Rent: 1,337
This unit is decorated in a main theme of light blue/teal and light grey/white or off-white accents. This unit has a television and love seat in the main area. The bookshelf is located next to the bathroom entrance near the nook with a beige armchair. The resident plant buddy is a pot of roses in the loft. The desk is located in the loft right as the sim climbs up. The lights in the is unit are mainly teal and black future lights or IKEA white-tinted lights. The kitchen has a spice rack and hanging pots
I imagine a trendy, fresh-faced graduate moving in and making a little temporary home of the space. A movie/lit buff, possibly a popularity or family sim who likes to get out on the town when they can but really just stay in with friends or family and have movie watching parties.
The Lobby
This where residents can mingle, greet guests, pay rent, make public calls, drink self-serve cappuccino or hot chocolate. There is also an extra, public bathroom for whoever needs it at the back of the lobby. The lobby contains a security system that will contact law enforcement if the building is broken into.
Supplemental CC
Full set of Thorpe Window Set converted by Vernaka if you want the whole set, just uncheck the thorpe windows in Clean Installer and add these files to your build folder. Files are packaged with only with windows used.
Recolors of Marvine's 'Just a Ladder'
I use a rug fix by HugeLunatic, so rugs can be used off the grid and diagonal without distorting, not sure if I use it here but it's handy overall
Please enjoy and let me know if you have any issues

Lot Price (furnished): 88,482

Install Instructions
1. Download: Click the download link to save the .rar or .zip file(s) to your computer.
2. Extract the zip, rar, or 7z file.
3. Install: Double-click on the .sims2pack file to install its contents to your game. The files will automatically be installed to the proper location(s).
- You may want to use the Sims2Pack Clean Installer instead of the game's installer, which will let you install sims and pets which may otherwise give errors about needing expansion packs. It also lets you choose what included content to install. Do NOT use Clean Installer to get around this error with lots and houses as that can cause your game to crash when attempting to use that lot. Get S2PCI here: Clean Installer Official Site.
