[@mary6398]

[@weird0strangeone]

They know what they are doing as a couple….. They know

[@leeleehenry293]

That's funny I had the same thought. 2nd thought: they totally just got paid through us twice since I viewed and liked both their videos lol

[@Elinerica]

At this point I’m really invested in this move and what office James is getting 😂 Also please do a dream-reno, would love to see that

[@mckrey]

I definitely agree with making the guest bedroom the smaller room! We learned in our most recent house to use the best rooms for our needs (offices, game rooms, etc). We don’t have guests all that much and in our previous house those rooms were barely used.

[@LoLPlayback]

Yes, people always think they are gonna have guests over more than they do. Lol. And usually guests don’t end up spending the night very often, maybe a few times a year, so it doesn’t make sense to use a larger room for it. We actually are planning to get a Murphy bed frame for our guest room so that we can still use the room for other things the majority of the time.

[@emmaarnold4493]

Yeah we had a full guest bed is our spare room because we had interstate family but they hardly visit and we ended up changing it to a pull out couch so we could use the space

[@ynadiabarnabe2069]

I got a 2 bedroom for myself so I’d have a guest bedroom, and it barely gets used!! I agree with James a hundred percent

[@jadeskyewalker]

Yes! Definitely make the smaller room a guest room. Makes no sense to waste a bigger room that you would use every day.

[@27Emaustin]

Yep, fully agree with this advice. You usually only have guests for a total of 1-2 weeks per year (total). It doesn't make sense to use all of that good space for guests who use your house less than you do.

[@ohkaygoplay]

I love him arguing his case to have the bigger room. :) It makes a lot of sense to have the bigger room if you're going to be using it every day, actually. Petition for James to get the big room.

[@mrbqkc]

Agreed!! Keep explaining it James! We're on your side 😂

[@danitamyers8241]

Definitely James deserves the bigger room for office and smaller room makes total sense as guest room.

[@bakedbeans2466]

I'd turn the spare room off the living room into a separate TV room! That way in the living room you can lay stuff out a bit differently, have a bookshelf, Bowser's bed can be in the middle, maybe more seating for when you entertain!

[@regnagatha5028]

Yes! That was my thought as well. If that smaller room is big enough for a couch and tv, then the larger room could be more for socialising.

[@hernameispekka_Rebecca]

@@regnagatha5028 Same! My friends have the bigger more open room with a dining table and more general hangout room and then the nook beside (kind of similar to how it seems in this house) is filled with a corner couch and tv. I think that is a really nice and cozy solution!

[@alwaysjale]

That’s exactly what we chose to do with our ”formal dining room” like a den with additional sofa and swing chair, plants decor etc

I sure hope James remembers there are "half tile" end counter pieces, bc I never see him use them and always hear him complain about counter sizes not being right in his builds.

Granted, many of the counters have end counters that are more 3/4 than 1/2 tile wide .. and then there are the odd triangle end counters, too.

[@laurakave844]

I would definitely recommend the guest room to be the smallest. It will end up being empty 99% of the time and a catch all room for stuff you don’t know where to put!

[@Loony713]

Maybe you could put a some nice shelves filled with some books and plants with a hanging chair into the empty room next to the kitchen with a yoga mat and some pretty lights so it will be like a chill and relaxing space

[@AlisonLeighLilly]

Totally agree! But I mean, my husband and I are huge nerds, he's a linguist and I'm a writer, and we literally have thousands of books, bookshelves in every single room of our place -- so the total lack of bookshelves in James & Deli's house left me a little shook... ;)

A dream reno is definitely wanted. Also very happy James is thinking about the size of rooms and how often they would be used…totally agree with moving the guest room to the smallest room! As for the space off the lounge room, that could easily be a home gym area now and eventually expanded for a larger living area or kitchen. So very happy for you guys🥰

[@chehancock4485]

I love how James had zero plants indoors, meanwhile Deli is an aspiring plant mother…

[@ericksonwall7369]

Hello 👋 how are you doing today-

[@lateoclock4281]

I like how he talks about Deli's version because it shows that he included her version in his thought process. Going back and forth refining the house layout in TS4 is relationship goals

[@Cgimonday]

Creating your real life house on the Sims separately, but together respectively, is for real couple goals

[@limeparticle]

Deli found the one person who loves Bobo, it’s a true union of souls 🥰

[@annie.sanders]

extra room can be home cinema with a big comfy couch, blackout curtains and a projector.

[@weeklypositivitea9220]

Sounds great!

[@hay2249]

I love how James give deli the room with the better view because she would like it more

[@martinbrtj]

I think the empty room would be so cool to have a coffee bar with their round table and two chairs. I know James and Deli love their coffee! Then, you could buy something better to fit the space in the kitchen. :)

[@rachelcookie321]

Is that just a table you only drink coffee at? Don’t people like to bring their coffee with them somewhere else?

[@emrix492]

I was waiting to see if you would do this too!! I’m so excited to see if you give her the tiny office hahah

[@emrix492]

Now that I’ve gotten to the part where you’re furnishing the small room, I have to say I like the layout you chose more. I hope you don’t get put in the small room :)

[@LeireFB]

I'd make a reading/corner room in that awkward space next to the kitchen, but that's because I'm a huge reader!

[@arianechasle3750]

That little room off the living room would make a great kids' playroom (generally speaking, not necessarily for Deli and James)

[@jensencaldwell5101]

yeah, that space is super ideal for a playroom. and maybe it's just me, but i think that a kinda equivalent thing would make sense for deli & james specifically: a bowser room! ik dogs have a Lot of Stuff that takes up storage and floor space, etc. (like food, toys, leashes, various grooming stuff....) -- that room seems abt the right size to fit a cabinet/chest to store the various dog things, and his big bed, with a little extra room besides. plus it connects to the kitchen - so just beside the kitchen door could be a great place to put his food bowls and avoid the issue of the (small-ish) kitchen/dining area getting crowded. plus he could kinda have his own space. idk if dogs value that quite as much as cats, but.... it seems a nice option to me 😅

[@sdhartley74]

he did say "room to grow"... 🤔😅

[@andreaparham79]

I would turn that dining room into a reading room. Nice big book case and snuggle worthy chair!

[@2elexis]

YASSS please for the half tile, it'll make a hell of a difference in building

[@christicat221b]

A home gym is good idea for your mystery room! That or if y'all have any hobbies like painting you can put that there as well.

[@birdgirl8390]

I would turn that weird nook into a "creative space" or simply a hobby room, where you stuff all the things in you're interested in. Like what would I give to have a crafting room instead of making my dinner table a mess with all my soldering stuff 😂

[@weeklypositivitea9220]

Yes! So many good hobby items so that would be ideal

I would love to turn that little awkward space into a walk-in pantry and coffee bar or kind of a butler's pantry. And make the kitchen just a bit bigger. But I really love to cook and bake, so lots of prep space is a must for me.

[@theLauraoc]

I’d love to see a dream reno furnish! I agree with using the smaller room as the guest room. The walk-in closet would be a great spot for guests to store their luggage.

As someone who went from living in a (UK) garage (so smaller than int. garages) converted into a small annex with my partner to living in a 3 bed house, we really thought we'd have loads of space but you will definitely fill up the space so quickly! I'm so excited you guys are moving to somewhere much bigger and better suited (presumably) for you :)

[@ryleeboizard9356]

What’s an annex?

[@jadecoyle990]

@@ryleeboizard9356 It's a fancy word for another living space on the same bit of land. Usually hotels/hostels/B&Bs have 'annexes' which are usually the less fancy, cheaper accommodation. We just called it the annex because it was quicker than saying 'the converted garage' XD But it was like a really tiny flat - our own living space, separate from my in-laws, with kitchen, living room, 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom kind of thing.

[@itschelseakay]

I was so excited when I saw this notification!! Would love a Reno furnish! Also think if James likes the larger room he should get it. A view on the patio would be nice as a guest!

[@kymfrizzell9666]

It's great that you are both moving to a house. Bowser will love having a yard, like dog park every day. You will both have your own office, can't wait to see what you both do with your space. Would love to see your dream furnishings James, yes please do it.

This is a great idea. Please consider this James

[@pamelawantsmusic]

Congrats you two! It’s such a fun adventure to embark on. Many moons from now, the mystery room would be an excellent playroom. A perfect baby jail because you can keep them contained safely and the clutter hidden away visually, while still being accessible from the kitchen and living room. I’d live with a smaller kitchen to have that separate space if you’re staying longish term. Yoga mats, plants and comfy chairs in the meantime!

[@LizBurman]

I mean, the bonus room can evolve with your needs. It can start as a workout space and if you decide to start a family, you can make it the controlled kid space by putting up a baby gate and keeping toys and kid things in there. Plus, the little room is an ideal Nursery size. And if you are hosting guests, you can put a Murphy bed in one of your offices (whoever gets the bigger one) and share a workspace while guests are staying with you. Anyways, it is a lovely home and I am very excited for you both.

[@ericksonwall7369]

Hello 👋 how are you doing today-

[@LivinInSim]

Just jumping in here in the beginning to say, that's always the problem I have in TS4 when trying to build real houses. They are always too long. They are not necessarily too wide that I can tell. I wonder why that is? If the scale is off, shouldn't that be a symmetrical thing? Theories from the peanut gallery are welcome. Regarding the scale, I do think it would help if we had half tile segments, but that doesn't address the symmetrical issue. Not much to do in the way of remedies in this iteration, but an interesting convo to me nonetheless.

[@pastelpinkhoney]

I tried building my house but I 100% needed half tiles or something. It came out weird and long, and huge too. All the doors didn’t quite fit right either. Which is weird because our place is pretty much a simple rectangle on the outside.

[@LivinInSim]

@@pastelpinkhoney Yeah, it's true even with simple shaped buildings. Maybe a half tile would fix it more than I think. When I copy a floor plan, I make it smaller, since it isn't real, but then you end up with 1 tile wide sections, or sections that you can't fit furniture in.

[@zaraglowious]

The little extra living room/old dining room could be a good space to make into a movie room perhaps - depending on the dimensions - and your couch could fit nicely in the corner, and then the bigger living space could be nice to just make into a chill out space for hanging out with friends and family. And if you want a workout space, you could use the space bedroom for that and put in a Murphy bed or something like it for when people spend the night, that way the room will also be for more use and not just for once every 6 months (or what it was 😋) and the closet could potentially be an easy place to move equipment into when people stay over 😊

[@hernameispekka_Rebecca]

Yep, all of this!

[@jessicahunter2976]

It's been so long since I've heard James complain about a lack of small, circular tables. That used to be his signature complaint! XD

[@weeklypositivitea9220]

“Oh my, How the turntables have…” well perhaps you know the expression haha

[@Tirena]

You could turn the spare room into a library/relaxation space. Hang up some curtains in the archway, pile rugs on the floor, and have some bean bag chairs or other cozy furniture along with book cases for books. Your house looks really lovely, can't wait to see the video of it.

[@moni13000]

You guys should make your new house layout a Build Challenge. Post the shell and see what everyone comes up with. It might give you layout ideas and it could be fun.

[@amysnelgrove]

Office is used every day make sure it gives you joy! We converted our formal dining into a “library” we lined one wall with ikea bookshelves and even got the stacking piece on top. And the other wall is a full wall gallery wall with travel photos, our degrees etc. Use the spandrels instead of the archway! And lastly do a dream version for sure!

[@RoNi-2011]

I’m exited for your new house. Hope everything turns out as you wish. Btw: In Germany we normally have our laundry in the bathroom or if you have a house there’s often a extra laundry room in the basement. I’ve never seen it in a cabinet.

[@FirebladesSong]

Meanwhile, in my apartment here in America, we have a little closet off the kitchen with the laundry (washing and drying machines) as well as access to the water heater.

[@velvet021]

I feel like having your laundry in a closet is very much an American thing.... love the way I’ve seen European laundry/bathroom combos, makes way more sense

[@thecomorbiditycurator8018]

You could use that extra dining room space for a library/reading nook. Or put a bar in there and some comfy chairs and use the space for when you have people over. Possibly even a board game room or music room depending on what you're into when you're not simming. And maybe if you stay there long enough, you could convert that covered patio into a sunroom. Imagine how much Bowser would LOVE to have yard views on 3 sides and still be in air conditioning with all his hot floof.

[@lied8642]

Congratulations on the new house! In the extra room maybe a cosy tv/reading room. I have a lot of plants, books and musical instruments so I'd probably make it my urban jungle music reading room....

[@eholly1016]

Same here for sure!

[@jansmith3613]

Yes please...dream reno! The little nook would work for a more formal dining room but if you only entertain casually then having the eat-in kitchen works just as well. An exercise area is fine, or even an area for comfortable reading or quiet pursuits if one wanted to be away from the tv. I have a little area that I use for that in my home and I adore it. It also gives a space for conversation away from the tv area when friends visit. :)

[@seriliaykilel]

Please post this build!! I have so many ideas even with your furniture!! Would love to play around and furnish! Side note - bonus room would be ideal kid play space (hehehe) but in the short term, a additional sitting room or a library might work

[@krissyville]

First: The ceiling mounted greenscreens are absolutely worth it, 10/10 recommend. Offices feel so much cleaner when that clunky thing is out of the way and doesn't need to be dragged around. Second: As someone who's been married for over 15 years, take the larger office, especially since this house is half yours and you'll be in it all day with the work/life balance. Overnight guests are not frequent enough to warrant losing a space you'd be spending a large part of your time in. Take that bigger office! As for floorplan: I'd drop the wall between that weird nook and the kitchen and make it one large open dining space with an island. I'd close up the archway but leave it's shape to turn it into a nice 'feature' bookcase in the living room area. Cozy cubbies for plants, books, knickknacks, etc. Get a sectional with a chaise instead of a wrap around and then pull it towards bowsers window, mount the TV on a swing/movable arm so you can turn it towards the new couch location and avoid the glare, push it back to the wall when not in use. And is it just me or does 1 bathroom for a 4 bedroom home seem a little strange? Is that common in AUS?

[@pokesnape6988]

James: this isn’t my dream build, but here’s my dream desk and dream bookshelf 😂 I would love to see your dream build to compare to deli’s

[@2972220]

For the weird little empty nook- make that a cozy TV room/den. I would block the door into the kitchen with either the couch or TV. And then the big living room can just be a seating area and then you could put the couch wherever because it doesn't have to be in front of the TV.

[@jodistevens4013]

You should definitely reno it to how you would if it was your dream so you and Deli can compare and blend for the real thing!

[@joannaakaasia]

I would put a wall in were the archway is and put the sectional sofa in that corner so it doesn't block of the living room, you could turn that room in to a pantry/ storage room.

[@hernameispekka_Rebecca]

That could work very well and give them space for the dishwasher, espresso machine and extra storage and counters to have a usable pantry back there.

[@charlyholland3740]

I feel this is James's passive aggressive way of letting deli know which room he wants for office haha 😂

[@Gothnique]

This looks fantastic, I do want to see James version of the dream reno!!!! Deli's was amazing. Congrats on the new house soon! Suggestions for the nook on living room: could be a reading/collectable lounge nook. for quiet days with a book and tea to relax, brainstorm ideas etc. If you craft at all it could go there. You could have "transformation" furniture and use it for extra room for food with big groups to serve if needed or extra seating for those times as well. crafting, lounging etc. Change it as you have needs to utilize the space. if you have plants could make it a little like a 4 seasons room with that window to grow your own little plants, herbs for cooking, etc.

When I was little, we had 2 living room areas like this. One living room with no tv for when guess come over. One was a tv room for every day.

It's really interesting watching you try to place your existing furniture in the house. When I was in Canada before moving to the UK to get married, my partner sent me photos of various places so we could choose our flat together. My partner then built the flat as much to scale as possible in the game Second Life (which is where we met from across the world and fell in love. I moved to the UK less than 2 years later and we've been married for nearly 12 years.) It feels much easier to build to scale in Second Life, by the way. The place was really oddly shaped with random angles. The kitchen was minuscule and with the under-counter fridge, washing machine and stove, there was only one lower cupboard and two upper cupboards, no other kitchen storage. There was the equivalent of one tile of counter surface available for food prep. The living room was long and narrow with the end at the kitchen more narrow because of a diagonal wall. At that end we had a fold-down table and folding chairs, our freezer, the microwave and a large pantry cupboard. Yes, in the living space. There was nowhere else! The other end of that room was difficult but we figured out how to arrange the couch, entertainment unit, etc, which my partner would not have thought of if we hadn't been trying various options in-game. We didn't have the option to buy new things because the Visa and immigration process used up the little money we had, so we had to make it function with what my partner already owned and some secondhand things that were given to us. It meant that on moving day my partner was able to just put the furniture in without having to shuffle things around to find something that worked. It also felt really special to me, like I had a real part in making our place a home before I ever arrived there. ❤ I hope you find it as helpful as we did!

That empty room near the kitchen would be so good for VR play zone. I struggle with space in my really small apartment, so I can think only about it)
