I love the outside of yours, by the way!

"Attention! This thread has not had a reply for 89 months."




Nope, I'm not a troll. I just wanted to add some content to this thread as I'm think this is the right place for it. I did some redecoration of a dorm and non of the other picture threads seemed to be correct so I post here instead. For better or for worse...

Anyway, ever since I started to play the Uni EP I have been quite upset about the way the dorms (I always play dorms) did look like. Honestly, what is this? Oddly colored walls, some furintures that seems to be found in a local dumpster or anywhere else. How on earth is anyone supposed to focus on their studies in a place like that? In my eyes, impossible. No, I have never been to the uni myself and do not know anything about dorm life but I would say that I put more energy into decorating a lot then EA does so therefor I did this project.



So this is the dorm. Looks quite OK from the outside. I do not have any idea what the small rooms on top is supposed to be. There is nothing in them and hardly space for anything either.


First floor. The layout is quite nice but that yellow makes me sick. It does. All rooms are different and have very boring furnitures. And I do not think that anything matches.


Ahh, much better. Smooth colors. Brick walls and wood, that's my style. Here you can see that I also did change the rooms but we will come to that in a minute. I did forget to replace one of the ceeling lights in the hallway (doh!) but that was me moving to fast.


Second floor. Here my sims can do quiet activities like reading, playing chess and painting. I think there is a tv but no one seems to use it.

I know, sorry. I had made that misstake before. From now on I will do as you told me. I will edit my post but it will take some time as I'm at work now and don't have a computer.
