I love how Kayla is branching out into new styles rather than her blue suburban, like we got so many modern builds these weeks, it’s really cool

[@adrian_31605]

@Lilsimsie766 scam bot L

[@augusto7681]

Imagine if she tried to trasnform this plumboob in a blue suburban. Roofing would be a nightmare.

[@yumihs2]

Yes I'm loving it!

[@ILuvAyeAye]

I've always loved her non-traditional builds! But I think because she posts so much, it totally makes sense she wants to stay in her comfort zone - I'm guessing builds she's not as comfortable with take more time, and she deserves a life outside the Sims too.

[@fluffycottoncandy937]

it's also kinda hard to build a suburban based off a plumbob lmao, but i agree with you

[@brooke4502]

Simsie has evolved passed Blue Suburbans, now she’s building Green Moderns

[@tortillachips3911]

LOL

[@isabellrichardson8250]

It’s funny to see the Sims team involved in our silly little challenges lol

[@feebslovescats]

LMAO

[@frankb3347]

Silly? No this is very very serious business. :p

[@ellissavitz2840]

😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮

[@ellissavitz2840]

zz

[@supmaren]

Actually the rules did mention the stairs. They said you can change the placement and the type of stairs.

[@DoveJS]

Luckily she put some stairs outside so we can pretend she just moved them and changed them. 😂Not that it matters much since she wasn't submitting it for the challenge and I'm pretty sure they can't even tell if the originals got deleted but ya know. 💠🟩

[@supmaren]

@@DoveJS Even if she was submitting the build, I don’t think the sims team would have cared since there were so few rules.

[@DoveJS]

@@supmaren That too. I'm sure they just noticed people love Shell Challenges and building so they did what they thought might by simple but challenging without stressing out the people who've never heard of a shell challenge before. I honestly don't even know if they'll be able to see them all given how the gallery is about loading up to a certain point. Best of luck to everyone who enters!

[@ElysiaWhitemoonOmega]

@@DoveJS im gonna laugh so hard if the they add a new neighberhood someday thats filled with these challenge plumbob houses

[@thatwardoo]

@@ElysiaWhitemoonOmega That would actually be so funny and I would buy that expansion pack /srs

[@lifelessbookworm]

Missed a great opportunity to use the plumbob ceiling fan!

[@plaxira]

And the hottub!

[@soreidelas]

its never a great opportunity to use the pumbob ceiling fan

[@16taysia]

That’s what I was thinking too!! 😂

[@AphroditeActually]

The what???

[@soreidelas]

@@AphroditeActually dont worry about it .

[@nataliazolotova1754]

This build is actually quite cute, especially the exterior. Love the green roof 👍

[@thatwardoo]

Same. I wanna use it

[@imsotiredofthiscrap2341]

i love that the bot is on the wrong channel

[@marshallhaines705]

This went from a plumbob into a funky lil modern house you'd see on a weird HGTV show and I adore it it looks so good

[@loopyhead3243]

I have a new challenge idea (don't know if somebody else had the same idea yet): You build a normal house with no restrictions, but when it's time for furnishing, you only get to use items starting with the same letter as the name of the room. For example, inside the bedroom you only get to use items with the letter 'b' as its first letter (like bed, bookshelf etc.) and inside the living room you only get to use furniture with the letter 'l' (like lamp or lounging chair). You can make it a little easier for yourself and allow names like leather couch for the letter 'l' or you can make it harder and only allow couch for the letter 'c'. Also, you can use 'alternative' names for the rooms to 'choose' the letter like you could use restroom or bathroom, which makes two different starting letters for the same room. I hope the 'rules' are understandable.

[@meridellwriter]

It would be interesting, but I'm having a very difficult time thinking how to get a functional bathroom in such a challenge without having to use the bushes as toilets. Technically there is a bidet upgrade available for toilets, but do any of the toilets in-game have names that start with the letter B? Or L (lavatory) or W (water closet) for that matter?

[@Preciouslynnette]

Elaborating on what joyfulcabbage said, maybe instead of things that start with the letter of the room, you could only use the names ea named the item in game. So for example if you’re doing the bathroom you can use the toilet that’s named “bashful sitter. “ (not an actual toilet name in the sims) 😅

[@mosstea886]

I love this challenge. I really want to build it now 😭

[@mosstea886]

Yes!!! This makes it easier but there is still a challenge! Great idea

[@loopyhead3243]

@@Preciouslynnette You could do it like that too :) My rules can be interpreted either way depending on how difficult you want this challenge to be and depending on if you want your house to be functional or not. It wouldn't be the first challenge where the finished house isn't functional.

[@seann.b]

I really hope they continue to do things like this and connect with the community!!!

[@Ehh34536]

FR! Same I think they should!

[@izzyneubs]

I like that she used other stuff besides base game, no budget, and a different build style than usual! It looks really good and I'd love to see her build more like this tbh

[@JazzySaint]

I actually would want to live in this house haha - I love the style and color scheme a lot more than I thought I would! ^o^;;

[@mathellecolong2540]

I’m just excited to see the builds of all the winners. As someone who’s not creative some builds are making my jaw drop.

[@PandaLuluBear]

I started imagining the family that would live in this house. I have Jessica the painter, she’s always got some paint on her, loves her wife and daughter, inspires creativity in everyone. Then Sarah the gardener, her plants are her pride and joy second only to her daughter, you’ll find her spending 90% of her time in the garden tending to her babies. Finally Nicole is their teen daughter, her moms have always encouraged her to follow her dreams and she loves to try new things. She doesn’t know what she wants to do with her life yet, but she’s excited to find out! I love them and this house❤️

[@makotonaegionthenintendods9537]

that is such a cute idea omg 🥺

[@LeonJ05]

This build had incredible potential to become a Starbucks haha

[@evelynnvernaz]

this is like a "challenge revisit" since you already did a plumbob house XDD

[@thatwardoo]

I thought this was on old video because of that. I was like "why is this in my recommended I already saw this" lol

[@hzeroexeithree5953]

missed opportunity to use the new plumbob ceiling fan

[@martinag8169]

I love the christmas tree in the back! Its such a vibe!

[@frankb3347]

There needs to be a shell challenge in the shape of a christmas tree.

[@Xersei]

I love how stressed Kayla is it adds to the suspense.

[@daeyonnax9451]

I love when kayla shows us her more creative side, especially when she doesn't limit her use of different packs or budget

[@waterlemonandfriends]

The builds these past couple weeks have been amazing! You can tell she’s really branching out and exploring new styles!

[@destructtheconstruct919]

This is one of my favorite simsie builds. I love the green and wood together.

[@edsmoony]

I was really doubting kayak would be able to make the plumbob into something slightly passable but... I kinda really like this house? would love to see more builds like this one!!!

[@angelinapetersen7422]

Feels like Kayla really begrudgingly fell in love with the green chaos lol

[@chipperchipmunk8309]

I wish I had seen their challenge when it was going on, that would've been a fun build to try! LOVED what you created! So glad KZbin threw you onto my algorithm! Can't wait to see what else you've done!

[@AlbertVargas]

Not done watching the video yet but I REALLY hope you added the plumbob ceiling fan in this build! 🤞🏼💚

[@AlbertVargas]

Update: NOOOOO 😭

[@brianyismymiddlename1566]

The second bathroom you made looks EXACTLY like the bathroom in my friend's house (the layout not the colour scheme) so don't worry if you think it looks somewhat bizarre, it looks good! Loved this whole build and you should have more confidence in your decisions because you always say 'oh that looks bad' etc but realistically, compared to something I know some of us could make, it is more advanced and looks a lot nicer - we love your builds, Kayla!

[@TiredMomma]

I'm just now seeing this, and remembering I already made this a build challenge back in 2019 or 2020. Interesting to see how this turned out. Like leaving your game unpaused is how I've been, just seeing how things progress while I gave myself a long break.

[@litschisaftkind3925]

KAYLA U DID SOO GOOD!!! I really like it and i feel like ur getting soo much better with modern stuff 🫢

[@kaylaleiann]

I still have no idea how you made this shell look good 😂 the exterior of the home actually looks like an intentional build 😄 Good job! ❤

[@leezahbat]

This feels like it was a missed opportunity to use the anniversary hot tub.

[@DarkDreams948]

The weird 'bird' shape is giving me 70s house vibes and i havent watched the whole thing yet but the old sunken living room idea is screaming to me and I hope this shell gets one lol

[@feankspoken]

this is genuinely one of my favorite builds youve ever done wow

[@campanda1875]

Yay, I was hoping she would do this

[@AZIZAxBLUE]

This actually turned out so nice 💚🤎

[@viemine]

16:23 you can actually use the "outer" end piece (the one between the basic counter and the right finish) as an end-piece cause that's a square and it looks nice! that's what i often do when the actual end pieces don't look how i want them to

[@kristy848]

I was gonna take a nap but no simsie is back to tempt me with good content

[@dxmss]

Corners like that i corner off with raised platforms to make little ledge shelving kinda areas to put clutter

[@luxaeterna9383]

Even though it's a silly challenge, this may be one of my favorite builds you've done! I especially loved the rooftop pateo space

[@kirstyw14]

I love this build! Reminds me to try and use the things I don't particularly love and just roll with it!

[@courtneyford97]

I've only just recently found your videos, one thing I don't like is the fact that you doubt yourself at almost everything you do. There are things sure that you don't like but if you do, don't doubt it!! I've loved most of the builds you've done. Don't forget if there are people that don't like the build they don't have to download it. Even if you love it!

[@michaelalunders6761]

I’m glad to see you complete a build. Inside and out it’s furnished with details.

[@Antooonina]

Kayla, I thought we had learned by now that The Sims don't do matching color swatches 😂 You cannot crave two matching greens or two matching woods, that is too much to ask from the creators 😂

[@KatelynxXxAngel]

I clicked so fast because i thought the notification was a text from my husband about food 🤣🤣 not that mad to find its a simsie build tbf

[@Aiden-V2.0]

hope you got your food lol

[@KatelynxXxAngel]

@@Aiden-V2.0 i did and it was delicious thank you!

[@idek9702]

I like how you got a lil more creative with this one, it turned to be SO PRETTY 🥰

[@lionatheart42]

Have you used every item in the game in a build? I’d love to see a challenge where you use items you’ve never used or rarely use, or one where you make a series in which every item is used.

[@revannia]

This is the most challenging shell I've ever tried (I'm still not finished lol). Not using move objects isn't helping either 🤣It's been fun seeing what other people have done.

[@jennyjenq]

You did better than I would, I think it turned out great! As soon as I saw it posted, I thought of you and what you would do with it. I'm glad you posted a video about it. Thank you. 😊

[@Thierry_Rat]

I’m actually in love with this house- it reminds me of the apartment I had I’m Mexico the same color walls as the bathrooms and the same dark wood floors.

[@shoutosgf_]

The green lady would love to have her sim living in this house XD and i mean this in a good way I love your videos! Idk if is the editing, your voice, the content or the mix of everything it just scratches the right part of my brain, having your videos in the background while i study, or watching them when having a break was everything for me this past month!

[@moonyfruit]

You did a great job with the odd shell shape. I love the green eco vibes!

[@kayla_mallen]

This is awesome!! One of my favourite simsie builds! Love seeing Kayla branch out with the mid century modern vibes and the green everywhere 🌱

[@reizueberflutung]

First the round walls video, now this. Simsie is in her modern build era and I‘m here for it. To be fair, it would have been impossible to turn the plumbob into a blue suburban.

[@vicstaroonie]

This is my favourite simsie build so far. It's so different and interesting. I love it.

[@stellacesconetto3283]

This looks so much like a reality show house

[@galaxygirl3079]

I know that you probably won’t see this Kayla but this is my favorite video you have ever done I loved it and the process and watching you struggle yet make it look so cool and I just wanted you to know that and also I know this isn’t the type of hous😂e you normally make but your so good at this style of build.

[@DouniaBedboudi]

this was so fun hahaha kayla 18:01 that brick wall stopping midway was driving me insaneeeee dont do thaaaat

[@nelegrund5041]

Love the modern build, but i definitely had to laugh when i realised you just built your own irl kitchen in a more modern style lol

[@Michelle_11234]

This is one of my fav builts!!! I love this style actually like how you did it

[@lauralouise1531]

this build is really giving 70’s i like it

[@heather_bee]

I'd love someone to do a build with this but make it as buggy and glitchy as possible, like add a curved wall and all other cursed assets and game play possible lol. Like "Here ya go team, this is the pinnacle of Sims 4 😜". I just noticed that the ghost pillow is wearing a Santa hat!

[@adxmwvr]

oooo Kayla! I tried and literally cried half way through it lmao i may try again once the pressure is off and its not a competition

[@jkqtpi]

honestly i think you did great in this challenge!! i seriously am obsessed with the style and all the different shades of green! and green isnt even my fave color. thanks for the awesome video kayla! ❤

[@Cimthabestb247]

Thank you for revisiting this insane shape of a shell I know you did it before and this is amazing 🎉❤

[@Cimthabestb247]

Btw you should totally check mines out

[@jaygandra]

I absolutely adore this build! I like all the textures and im such a sucker for green with wood. It just looks so cool and makes me happy. lmaoo the outside is incredible btw. playing there would be a lot of fun. Only nit pick is that fairy lights on the "deck/roof" would have been so cool!!

[@mischieffoal8689]

This is actually SO CUTE!! I love this house so much it looks gorgeous!

[@MrRoesluxboi]

Me at midnight insisting one more lilsimsie video again again and again

[@managingbusiness141]

This looks awesome!! Thank you for your hard work and creativity

[@Shoko-t3y]

I'm so sad rn😭 I build something for the first time since I'm a new player, It took me so long to build it and I really tried my best with EVERYTHING on it, and I was so proud of it and showed it to my father (which I shouldn't have cuz he's like...not satisfied wirh anything) and he took a look at it and said "It's horrible. What the hell even is that?" I laughed it off but it really hurt me🚶🏽‍♀️ (because I really liked the house and it took me 3 days to build)

[@mvivtz]

The energy in this video is PURE CHAOS and I'm loving it! 😅😍 The house looks good in the end though! 💚

[@lilith_trst]

This is honestly such a cool house!!

[@hankstranagalwilly6777]

I love this house, the interesting shape, the green/eco colour scheme it all merges very well, a great house for a eco-conscious rich couple

[@fievanwezemael9000]

I love this build!! You made it look so cool and cute!! Green is also my favourite colour so this is one of my favourite builds actually.

[@abitofpaprika]

Honestly, loved this style of the house. Like soo much.

[@krystal127]

I love what you've done here. Green is my favorite color, I play this game the same way since it came out. Gawdy and green 💚

[@thevampqueenyt8782]

Kayla I love how your stepping out of your building comfort zone BUT NO GUEST BATHROOM?! NOT EVEN ONE? 😭😂 that drove me crazy ngl

[@Nadineplayss]

I always really enjoy ur vids, they make me happy :)💕

[@stevie_carter]

i think you don't give yourself enough credit! this build looks really good, and like mid century modern, i really love it!

[@coasterradient97]

Yesss Kayla!!!!!! I love these build challenges !!!

[@roseredfire48]

I mentioned it in one of your last videos about this challenge. They threw down the challenge but I'd like to see what they would make out of it. You did a great job. I don't know what to do with mine. I currently am having it as a bakery but not sure I'll keep that. Such an odd shape and not easy to work with. lol.

[@yuhhbiscuit]

Nah because this build challenge will haunt me forever 😭

[@spooktspeek]

i'm learning so much watching this, i never even registered that there were stairs or fences or anything

[@proffittm3010]

Yeah, I did the plumbob challenge and you are right, Kayla, it was a very odd shape to work with! My entry ended up looking whimsical and quite silly! It was a lot of fun to build. I also made a video of how I built it, and that was fun too! I really had a great time watching your build of this challenge! Thanks for making it!

[@zomb_bree7950]

Love the sims team for this

[@se_charlie6022]

This was great Kayla!

[@SEAsnake22]

I love this build!!! Really showing off her strengths

[@paulabroadworth2504]

Simsie you missed using the plumbob lights that hang from the ceiling as well as the little plumbob table lights.

[@elo2294]

i actually really like this omg i've always lived in weird shaped small places so this feels very homely to me

[@lostjellyfish]

reminds me of this lounge I low-key loved to play in that I made that was also an art museum that was nearly this exact shape 🤔

[@indijohnson1278]

'there isn't really an entry way, you just kind of come in' Me entering my British terraced house

[@antheaperlot8416]

I had soo much ideas on this one! But I do not have a lot of kits and stuff to do what I wanna do.. But I love what you did, it's definitely better than you thought it would be!

[@chibigirl8545]

Awesome job. It would probably be easier to make it a community lot, like a hospital. That way the one pointy end can be like a feature area with a statue or a fountain, and the other pointy end could be "utility area" with pipes and stuff. The other thought, if you really wanted to lean into the green/plant thing, would be to make the entire thing an elaborate greenhouse with pools winding through to look like irrigation and have a fountain/water feature at the pointy end. If you're allowed to add a basement, then you could do a story driven build with it as a bunker "Plumbob Eden" and have your solar panels and stuff on the roof with everything off grid...

[@reveluvly]

the whole building of the outside just consisted of me screaming ferally in my head over every choice and how much I loved it

[@randomharts]

I think a glass roof on some of this would be cool! Nice modern house…I actually like the sharp corners😉

[@marieduran6286]

I see you noticed that it was in a shape of a plumbob too... I think this may be a hint of what's to come, instead of a roadmap they gave us a challenge. Just the shape of the build reminds me of Into the Future from the Sims 3.

[@jtaylor9880]

I did something like this last year. And I found an actual house modeled very close if not exact to the shape of a plumbob. Surprisingly, my build worked out but looked so very weird.

[@aaronelliotart]

Tbh, one of my favorite Simsie builds to date. I think the modern style mixed with the earthy elements was super cool

[@irissupercoolsy]

Wow I randomly took a look at your channel and I saw a video posted a minute ago haha.. Kayla knows when I'm hungry for new Sims videos hahaha

[@ryans413]

I love homes that are different. This looks fun it makes you think outside the box literally lol 😂
