THE STEPFORD PROJECT: PART 5 - Stepford Manor!
Added August 1, 2008: No Custom Content Version (UNFURNISHED)
The authentic look of the orginal design has been maintained as much as possible by using Maxis content. However, there are subtle differences in the overall appeal. Do enjoy the download. This house is among the favorites in this collection!
--------------------------------------------------
GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE COLLECTION
The Stepford Project is a small collaborative project by Deluxe Designers Inc. (StephSim and Deluxe Designs). We wanted to bring your wealthy Sims a truly "exclusive" neighborhood to play in. What better place than Stepford, Connecticut. This project is based on the 2004 version of the American movie "The Stepford Wives". The movie basically tells a tale of how men bring their significant others to the seemingly "perfect" Stepford community to help them improve who they are. The cast includes Nicole Kidman, Matthew Broderick, Glenn Close, Christopher Walken, Bette Midler, John Lovitz, Faith Hill and many others. The Stepford Project revolves around this fictitious neighborhood and all of it's splendor. We will present the lots in parts.
Note:
This is Part 5 and is the final Stepford lot. This lot is truly a collaborative effort between Deluxe Designs and StephSim! We took the best of ourselves and created this fabulous mansion. If you download no other lot in the Stepford Collection, this lot is a must have!
Stepford Manor is indeed a mansion that mesmerizes! It is unique in design and the builders, Deluxe Designers Inc., took inspiration from the family who first lived there, the Ambercromby family. Apparently, the final vacation the Ambercromby family took led them to the ends of Europe. They went from Ireland to England to Italy, France and finally Spain. The manse has a distinctively Mediterrannean feel to it. The bold roof color and the calming Tuscan Stucco blend in pure perfection. Please do come in and take a look around. This could be the house of your Sim dreams!

UPDATED: January 2015
This profile page was initially set up for the collaborative efforts of Deluxe Designs, Lauralaima and StephSim.
However, with the emergence of The Sims 3 and real life demands, we decided to amicably part ways.
The final collaborative lots will be shared once they are edited for EP-related changes and prepped for uploading. However, this will take a bit of time due to other Sim commitments. There will be a few more posts, to include collaborative Gwrych lots and a few more Stepford lots.
While the Stepford Project will remain available for download, the full Gwrych Project has changed. There will be 2 Gwrych lots posted here on this account to share and honour Lauralaima's contributions to the original concept.
Initially, Gwrych was also meant to be a few collaborative lots. However, it turned into a bit of obsessive medieval madness on StephSim's part. To see what each creator has been up to, be sure to click on their respective links below!
While DDI projects will be no more, the friendships forged will always be a part of who we are!
Thank You for your patience and understanding!
