CAKE SHAPED HOUSSSSSSE

[@michipeachy69]

I'm building a cake house, it started out as a test to see how many stories i could make a house, then i decided to make it look like a cake by adding one tile on every side, so the top level was 2x2, the one under that was 4x4, and so on, but then my sister said "lesbians" becuase in some places they call lesbians "tortas", and then it made me think of Strange Æons, so now I'm making it a witch house, so it's a lesbian witch cake house, three witches live there: Teya, Sappho and Ava

[@apolloisairborneoldchannel8920]

Actually yes, that is a thing. Putting fireplaces on 'platforms', actually called "mantels", is a very common find in 60's - 80's houses. My dad's house has a huge mantel in the living room.

[@katlyn6928]

I thought mantels were like a shelf on top of the fireplace...? Idk haha

[@LeGasp.]

My fire place has the top and bottom. Btw the “mantel” is on the top of the fire place the bottom part is probably to keep people from having their house catch on fire. Idk these are just my thoughts...

[@Mike-di1og]

@@katlyn6928 The mantel is the whole fireplace facade visible in the room, including the shelf but also including all the decoration, jambs, etc. The raised platform around a fireplace is a hearth.

[@emerson3669]

@Alissa Casey it would also be perfect for parenthood.

[@ziedyee]

@@emerson3669 I think tiny living would be the best bet because I always connect kids room stuff and parenthood with children, toddlers and maybe teens but tiny living would be great to have it for adult sims too. Like, make it so you can put a bunk bed with a desk underneath instead of a second bed, or just a regular bunk bed that can have two sims but only take up the space needed for one single bed. But it should literally be base game tbh..

you should redo your “remaking the good luck charlie house” since you have platforms now and can add the platform thing in Teddy’s bedroom.

[@idkwhatmynameissoahaha7584]

I don’t know if this is really possible but you should do a challenge where every room is a different shape so you have like triangle and octagon rooms. Lol it would be a really weird house but I think it would be funny and interesting. 😂😂
