Beautiful! The architectural design is indeed innovative and lovely, and you've simified it wonderfully. The curving roof is sweet, but the courtyard is my favorite aspect of the design.

I don't mind tons of plants. That's what influence points are for! Army of gardeners!

"Mootilda" I have to say you have sold me on all your "Modern homes, I have never really been a fan of the modern look; But everyone you ever made I have like, and this one is right at the top of that list as well. Just "GREAT" thanks for your creative eyes and for sharing with us all.

I'm having troubling unzipping it, I keep getting a message saying the file is corrupted. I redownloaded but still have the same problem.

I have no idea what your problem is. I just downloaded and unzipped without any problem.

You should make sure that you've got the entire file by comparing the file size of the downloaded file against the file size displayed here (1.22 MB). I suspect that you're just having problems getting the entire file.

You should see the actual house design... there are no walls to separate the bedrooms from the rest of the house. I just couldn't do that to my sims!

Easy as pie, using the TS2GridAdjuster. I've attached a screenshot of the parameters that I used. Note that I may have adjusted the size of the lot after this, so the locations may not be quite correct.

i have been wanting someone to build a sim house with a court yard in the middle of the home for so long. Thanks, wow. I thought I would have to request this look.

Sunny courtyards are difficult. The game really doesn't want us to make them.

I finally had to move the entry way for CSH4 from the courtyard to the living room, since there was no way to make a functional house with the entry in the courtyard. The newspaper delivery person would stand around for a while, then leave without delivering the newspaper.

My next lot, if it's accepted, has a sunny fully-enclosed courtyard. Plus, we're doing research now on making a ground-level sunny fully-enclosed courtyard, which is really the ideal.

Do I have to install the LotAdjuster and GridAdjuster for this house to work? I'm afraid if I don't my game might crash =X

No, you don't need anything else. The house works perfectly well as it is. I just used those tools to make it.
