Okay, here we go! I am decorating Round One's "El" Urban Sprawl house for John and Jenny Smith (and Ali, their unborn baby, but we'll get to that).
This is the house from the top-down view. To avoid obstruction, the price and whatnot is in the bottom-left corner. None of the existing walls/foundation have been changed. Fences and a half wall in the kitchen, however, were added.
This is my gorgeous little lot from the front, minus the lot specs this time. The stupid lot behind the Smiths' had a tree and a light, so I had to go in and delete them for better pictures, which took like ten minutes, god, this lot placement is unfortunate.
This house comes in color themes by room (yeah, yeah, lame, but I think I managed to pull it off). The bathroom is yellow.
John and Jenny's bedroom is blue (the living room is, too, but I ran out of colors, damnit!).
The hallway is red and features only a table, carpet, and a window.
Their kitchen is a sort of a lighter brown, with a nice red wall to compliment the hallway.
Their dining/living room is in blue and (when blue didn't seem appropriate) a white/brown wood. Near the door there are some artists' supplies and a bit of a reading cove. Here you'll also see the ever-so-dashing John and pregnant(!) Jenny.
The backyard in all its glory. It features a pool, a playpen for the little one, a firepit (not for the little one) and a pond.
Closer in on the pool and playpen. Both are fenced in, for safety, of course. Various toddler toys are in the pen, while . . . there's not much except a pool in the pool area. Notice the gorgeous curved pool corners (I recently learned how to use them, pretty darn cool).
This time zoomed in on the fire pit and pond. There isn't much to show except some nice hills and some pond lilies.
Bonus Room!
Jenny's having a daughter! They've already decided on a name: Ali. There's only one problem: the room. What's with all the green? (This one might be a long one) Well, Jenny's insane, to put it simply. She's convinced she's having a son and there's no turning back. She's decorated everything her daughter could ever want in green and she's bought It's a boy! banners. Their friend Louise Hancock, a world renowned surgeon, has checked several times, and the outcome is always the same: it's a girl, it's a girl, it's a girl. But Ali's room still suggests one thing: it's a boy, it's a boy, it's a boy.
