we tried building a house in black & white in the sims 4

I honestly think the bathroom looks really good. The whole house has a coastal vibe, and the floor tiles in the bathroom actually look like sand when paired with that blue tile, so it's like a beach-themed bathroom!

What about an "everything is not what it seems" challenge? Where you try to use as many things for something that is not their intended use, have hidden rooms, secret gardens, etc.

I feel like this house is owned by an old couple who mostly know what they want for their design but aren’t quite on the same page. So, like when the wife said she wanted pops of red, her husband was just like, “okay.” And painted the flower boxes bright red

22:52 i really think the yellow and blue adds to the coastal/beach vibe. Like, the yellow floor tiles is the sand and the blue wall tiles is the ocean or sky. Loved this build, it was surprisingly cohesive!!

This entire home just gives off “Grandmas house” in such a nostalgic way 🤍

The bathroom looks good. The floors and the walls look mismatched in such a way that makes me like it more than if it was matched.

I love that there are actually different colours around. A show home would have everything matching - a lived place is eclectic!

New challenge idea!!!!! For each room you spin the wheel and what number you get is the swatch number you have to use for each item in that room, you also do this in black and white so you can’t see the room until you’re done!

Honestly love the bathroom and the random pops of red, especially because they're random house objects like a picnice basket and crackpot. It's cute

This build gives me real house energy. Most people's homes are full of hand me downs and random stuff. We don't get to choose everything we own, and some stuff is good enough, or never gets replaced. It's weirdly ordinary and that's kinda cool!

Yours Black and White build still looks better than most of my normal builds, AND THE BATHROOM IS SOO GOOD it gives so much of "beach" vibes, like the yellow for the sand, blue for the sky and the sea. AND I WAS HERE BEFORE A 1MIL <33

I would love to see them do this challenge again, but without the intermittent reveals. Leaving the reveal to the very end would be much more chaotic. Loved the built in bench in the bedroom, I'll need to steal that hack for my own builds!

I actually really like the yellow floor in the bathroom, looks like sand at the bottom of a reef, the only room i don't like color wise is the outside but you guys did amazing!

There is a pop of red in every room: the soap in the shower, the basket, the pot, and the flower boxes. Honestly my favorite room is the bathroom because I think it embraces the Coastal vibes you wanted with the blue walls and items and the yellow because it looks like sand

I really like how it turned out. It feels really "lived in", but not in a bad way. Do you have any pieces of furniture, knicknacks, or rugs/blankets that don't match ANYTHING in your house, but you either love where you got it or who gave it to you so you can't just toss it? That's what this feels like to me... except the bathroom, but i love beige and blue so...

A colour theory lesson: (also yes i know Americans spell is color) So the different levels of greys you see, from black to dark white, to white and light gray, aren't different because of the colour. (For example, when they tried to match the outside wall with the green grass, it wouldnt work because the shade of grey you see has nothing to do with the colour and everything to do with the *value*.) Value is how light, or how dark a colour is, so when removing all colour, you can only see the shade of how much lightness or darkness is in it. This is actually a really smart way to decorate a room, testing the values to see if two values work together is smart, rather than just seeing the colour. Thank you for listening to my Ted talk.

well technically the yellow and blue is actually giving costal like sand and sea and you could even argue the random pops of brighter colors are seashells 😭

I was screaming throughout the entire video because everything came out so actually beautiful and the girls were mourning it, but I was falling more and more in love with every reveal. The pops of red to offset the general blue vibe are delightful contrast and I adore them, the kitchen/dining is lovely, the living room rug and fireplace being more deep in the colors is such a nice thing to look at, and the bathroom actually made me gasp in delight out loud when I saw it. The room gives off sandy beach vibes with the floor and wall contrast, it's gorgeous. And the bedroom!! How the pink on the headboard matched the pink on the end tables, keeping that warm color/pop of red flow, but the blue sea/yellow sand combination stayed strong. Gosh, this build is absolutely delightful and I'm both sad and happy y'all couldn't see it at first; she's got hidden depths!

I love how the build came out, even the color scheme in the whole house was somehow cohesive. The coastal vibes are actually giving beach 💅especially the bedroom and bathroom with the tan tiled floor looking like sand⛱. Down to the pinks and red sprinkled around unexpectedly looked really cute. You Both did Awesome Keep it Up!!! Been following for at least a year 💕 Been here before 1 mil!!🎉🎉🎉

My grandpa passed away today so I’ve been occupying myself with happy distractions. I was so happy to see that you guys had uploaded, thank you for bringing me some much needed joy🧡
