OctaPOOLooza - For Discriminating Sims
Thank you to my daughter Savannah, age 10, for the name "OctaPOOLooza". Pretty clever!
My inspiration for this house is the Snow Line Bathroom from VitaSims2:
http://www.vitasims2.com/sims2.htm
I thought the round bathtub would look pretty cool smack dab in the middle of a round (octagon) bathroom. So, that was my starting point and the house just grew from there!
Please note: this house is unfurnished. If you'd like to decorate the master bath using the Snow Line Bathroom, you'll need to download the set from the VitaSims2 website (link above).
Let's take a tour of OctaPOOLooza:
Enter through the front door into the entrance hall/foyer. To your left is the spacious living room. Windows in the living room are placed on diagonal walls only, for ease in placement of furnishings.
To your right is the kitchen. You may divide the kitchen into two smaller rooms if you'd like a formal dining room.
Proceeding through the door in the Glass Block Wall straight ahead, you'll find a small guest bath to the left, and the elevator to your right. In front of you is the door leading to the Master Suite - with it's Glass Block Wall octagon Master Bath.
Now, let's take the elevator to the second floor.
Exiting the elevator, directly in front of you is another bathroom - which can also be entered through a door in the second bedroom (to your right). The second bedroom has a lovely deck (the roof of the octagon Master Bath).
Walk out of the second bedroom past the elevator and take a right into the second story of the living room. This room has an opening in the floor and looks down on the living room below. This would be a great place to set up a library or art gallery (if your Sims collect art).
Exit the second story living room and walk straight ahead into what could be either a study or nursery. At the far end of the room, the door leads out onto another deck.
Hop back into the elevator and let's cruise up to the third floor. You are now in the Guest Suite. In front of you is a full bath - to the right is the guest bedroom. Climb the stairs to access a marvelous rooftop deck - perfect for sunbathing or hosting parties.
Now, let's return to the first floor living room. A sliding glass door allows access to the back yard, which has a cool, octagon-shaped pool.
