I turned a plumbob into a fully functional house

[@kirstenbass9533]

When he said “and then we’ll have a little hallway here” made me think of deli’s build when she said “I never use hallways, but James always uses hallways”. She was right 😂

[@SoleilQuiles]

Yesss!

[@calupoh9788]

I really liked the part where James said "It's sparking time" and sparked all over the place

[@DiggandDugg]

Having read this at the very beginning of the video I must say I'm very confused 😅

[@TownieSimBuilds]

Such a cool aesthetic on the inside! I'm glad that James really kept the shell intact even though the rules allowed otherwise.

[@katelynkaboom]

The build is amazing... but why James feels the need to fit in 3 bedrooms instead of making one of them more living space is beyond me haha. This man must love a challenge on a challenge!

[@mel_diamonddove9913]

Have you seen his "every lot challenge" challenge LP? 🤣🤣 Yeah, he lives for the extra challenge! Lol

[@lutilda]

Right? 😂 3 bedrooms a tiny living room and almost no kitchen

[@mackenziedesire7515]

I think all the let's play-ing has warped his brain into the type of simmer who tries to cram as many sims into a space as possible! It's really hard to go back, even just seeing builds with one bedroom confuses me, "how are you gonna fit your whole family in _that?!"_ lol

[@kimberley3790]

😂 I was thinking the same, or make one an office or something.

[@menoguchi]

When you said you weren't going to add any walls I was thinking to myself "I don't think there is any way this will look good" but you've definitely proved me wrong. I really like the style of the house. The upstairs patio looks really nice

[@yaradotexe]

"we live in a plumbob, maybe we should be more excentric" *continues to make the bed beige*

“I sparked all over this lot” -James Turner, 2022

[@ouaislem]

It’s sparking time

[@Robert_Burnell-Jones]

Kinda sounds like something a Servo really into architecture would say. ;)

[@sukipeace8986]

I've actually really missed James' builds, used to binge watch his build videos because they were so entertaining. ^^

[@meredithwemhoff9270]

James build videos are my fav!

[@misscoolblue16]

This was genuinely one of the toughest shells I've attempted. I didn't expect it to be.

[@Blood0range]

omg i had water in my mouth when James said "I sparked all over this lot" and almost ruined my PC 🤣amazing job! that shape was weird af lol

[@TheRealMGM]

This is my favorite of this challenge. I actually really like this house, especially the Batuu floors on the patio!

[@laniedragon]

Batuu has no business having such good floor tiles ngl

[@anonknitter]

I feel like the landscaping for a plumbob house should definitely include the llama topiary. In fact, if it exclusively had llama topiaries that would not be out of place at all!

[@skylar4444]

It’s so cute! I love the layout and how you furnished/decorated the place 🥹 also the planters on the rooftop is genius. Here for it!

[@RachelG11]

love knowing that when james said “alright…layout!” at 0:56 deli was pressed up against a wall trying to figure out what he was filming 😂❤️

[@maevael]

What do you mean?

[@VultureSkins]

@@maevaelshe probably said it in a video or somewhere

[@SimplicityK]

@@maevael it was on her Instagram stories

[@maniackatiie8910]

I just love James laugh, when he uses something from Batuu. 🥰

[@sarahcoleman5269]

James: I'm going to do the SIMS Plumbob Challenge. Me: Expects something green and cartoonish. James: +actually makes a decent mid-century architectural home+

[@simnights]

I love how the word "ambiance" from the Dine Out Multiplayer LP has now entered James' everyday vocabulary 🤣🤣

[@afamoore]

"I don't expect anyone to use this house ever" me immediately going to the gallery to download this house 😂😂😂

[@courtneymiller9390]

Same! Lol

[@feliciasantiago4345]

Same 😂

[@lienie17]

It would be kind of great to have a small let's play now with Bob Plum trying to be the perfect Plumbob Sim while living in this Plumbob house.😆

[@casey54321]

I love how you embraced the plumbob!!

[@ReginaTrans_]

I love it when James Sparks all over his lots

[@16taysia]

I don’t know yet what James does with the rooftop room but I would keep his layout and turn the rooftop room into an art studio or maybe even a small greenhouse 😊❤

[@wonderneverlandsystem]

Legit, add a small pool outside, and change one of the bedrooms to like a study or something and I would actually live here irl if I could.

[@jsimlady]

I think this is my favorite version of this so far.

[@JesseBensonJE553]

This is actually one of my favorite of your builds! Would absolutely use it.

[@Cyshix]

Deli did it Kayla did it and now James! Its so fun to watch them build it in their own way

[@mikaplaysgames310]

Absolutely insane how amazing you are at building. You just DID that. I have to bulldoze ten times when I’m not even doing a shell challenge 😭❤️

[@annaz7996]

"YEEHEEHEHAYEAH!" It'll never get old.

[@fabulousmagicalpotato2799]

I was waiting for you to hop on this shell :)) love to see your builds!

[@shadowmousie72]

It reminds me of a boat. I like it.

[@Daiska_Plays]

I only saw a boat when he started, and I still see a boat when he finished. I like boats.

[@thewatershopkeeper]

I really love the exterior and interior 😍 The Whole structure is Amazing it's not strange at all It's just perfect

[@Bellam83]

I actually really love this home. reminds me of a cool air bnb or something

[@knifeemoji3569]

The master bed is giving me modern/70s vibes and I love it

[@ReginaTrans_]

when James says he sparked, I imagine his beard suddenly turning pink and glittery, his eyes shine and his clothing turns funny, and he becomes super hype personality

[@hexfrog8346]

Really good job dude!! I love lilsimsie and absolutely no hate to her but you did a much better job!

[@HeatherLandon227]

I turned mine into a beach/spa area in Sulani. I wasn't keen on entering anyway. I just love doing shell challenges for fun.

[@lucylu8898]

Another brilliant build, you're always so original with your ideas and how you interpret the space. Also love your little 'isms' with the SLEEPIN/NAPPIN and of course BATUU! Your videos are always really entertaining to watch 🙂

[@MarkelleRayneeSheree]

I'm mostly just mad at how easy he makes it look 🤣

[@Aahi]

Love it! Definitely downloading. Only thing I see myself changing is the upstairs, the sims family I'm thinking of needs a gym instead of a study/play area. Deli's is already home to my own sim. Great job to the both of you.

[@jennakarro1702]

with a multi-tier corner shower shelf, that bathroom would be realistically amazing. if i ever build my own house, i will remember that. it looks cool

[@ByrdCamp]

James: Adds wall letterbox because the other one was weirdly "sitting in the middle of nowhere" Also James: BUsH

[@ChibiRandom13]

Now that the challenge is over I might attempt this myself! I love a good shell challenge. Also idk if this is used in Aussie english, but "spark something" is likely in reference to the idiom "to spark an idea" which is basically like giving some inspiration or a prompt to build from. If you already knew this and just didn't make the connection in this video, sorry! I hope it helps someone else who didn't know at least 😊

[@korgimi1018]

dude thank you i was so lost 😅

[@madamserpcnt]

James: Building inside a Plumblob isn't exactly easy. Sims 2: Shoves a baby in a Plumblob.

[@selkiefluff]

Really cool rendition for the shell! Though having a main bathroom right next to the front door... As someone from a cold country, I'm shivering at the very thought at making the after-shower walk of shame ajshjds

[@irishqa.]

James, if some people are not happy with you using not much color - know that I am here for that. The way you use color in smaller objects speaks to my heart - you def have great architectural mind and design taste, I love it!

[@TheGirlCalledNicky]

i would love to challenge you for a build where not even one piece of furniture can be black, white, or wood. they can have them as accents, just not the main focus. i love your normal build style and i think it’d be interesting to see what you could do with that

[@TabbyeLynne]

I would have gotten rid of the sofa downstairs and put a big dinning table and an island in the kitchen and then made the space upstairs into a big living room with the TV and the couch so it doesn't look so cramped

[@charliep123]

I actually love this house and would totally use it with my own sims.

[@rosameryrojas-delcerro1059]

100 baby.. :-P

[@TheXrayhope]

I think this is one of my favorite builds of all time! I love the wall placement and the rooms look so creative and lived in. I’m obsessed

[@dirtydan8058]

I can't believe this but plumbob houses are kinda fire, i want one

[@Djoxaurus]

I didnt know your game had color!🤪 Look at how much color you used in this build, even more then Deli when she tried to build like you🙃

[@wanse]

love when people do things with passion like yours, it really seems like you love doing this

[@EmiliFaust]

This was really fun to watch, this entire build challenge had very Sims 1 vibes to me, I'm into that lol!

[@docette2015]

I think this came out really well! Good on you for working with the original shell and managing to turn the points into functional bathrooms! Good use of the space, as you said. :)

[@Cimthabestb247]

This is amazing James just amazing u should have totally batuued the plumbob 😂 tho

[@TheNin-Jedi]

Honestly James. If this house was real I'd live in it. Its kind of a modern futuristic mix. Very homie and cozy vibes. I like it.

[@SidewaysCytlan]

If you remove the coffee, then the windows will work

[@AshleyAmbrose94]

what coffee?

[@paulinapopko8454]

James Turner, 2022, colorised: "I sparked all over this lot and I think it looks great"

[@peach9722]

i was waiting for you to add the curtain to the 2nd bathroom until the end 🥲 good build james!

[@zuumuu]

My favorite parts of his videos are the "yeah.. *giggle*" every video. Makes me chuckle every time

[@MissHummingbird]

getting inspired by that rooftop! definitely doing it for gardening

[@rudeminnesotan]

I waa totally waiting for the plumbob painting!!

[@nikkicat254]

Once again a learned something I didn't know we could do in the game by watching a James Turner video, lol! I didn't know we could copy a room and then place it somewhere else with the furnishings still in it! I was thinking of that recently when I was building a house, I thought I wish we could copy a room like this, because I had a room, a bathroom too, that I was going to copy layout of the furnishings, but had to do one piece at a time, I thought how I wish I could just copy the other bathroom exactly! Like the way they showed for The Sims 5 sneak peek in October! Now I will have to try that myself!

[@YoowlOwl]

Loved that you kept the shape and still made it so spacious 🎉

[@oshizu5576]

Loved the way you worked with the odd plumbob shape! So many rooms in such little space!

[@KristofferEk]

I did this one I literally cut the sharp corners of internaly so I could actually fit some proper rooms in. It did just end up as a one bathroom one bedroom house but it still worked well.

[@RayyRayyRAWr]

This would have also made a cool boat shaped house!

[@indijohnson1278]

Dear Sims team, please from now on call these challenges *I sparked myself* 🙏

[@shrek7092]

he sounds just like jazza

[@lochnecee]

This one felt pretty forced, I didn’t think the whole house flowed together, both in style and layout. However - it is a plumbob

[@blancaluna572]

I loved the planter boxes upstairs, it was a really cool idea 💖💖💖

[@alwaysjale]

I love the rooftop garden! This home is amazing 🤩

[@inoriya]

really like the exterior look of this build! the bathrooms were so on point tho I doubt the layout at the beginning haha. love the master bedroom the most

[@sydneyahlborn6412]

I love this house! Def going to download! Might keep the objects and style and just adjust the shape a bit!

[@ttt-rq3vs]

“I sparked so hard all over this lot...” I’m wheezing like a bloody whistling kettle- woke the house up. Glorious quote for the glorious plumbob horror-shape challenge (as I had lovingly named it).

[@irishduchess7577]

The “I Sparked Myself” challenge. Hmm, is it challenging to spark oneself? And the bigger question is, of course, like fishing-is it fun? The house turned out great, and I really love the bathrooms! Excellent use of the weird end angles!

[@reannoncraig5723]

It looks so good! I can’t wait to download it and play in it. Thanks for another amazing build James ❤

[@farahfofo2797]

"I sparked all over this lot" made me spit my food 😭

[@joshow926]

Looks great! I love the way your builds turn out.

[@danitho]

I would have made the top an outdoor entertainment area. But I always have house parties and things with my Sims.

[@anneswag4928]

The plants on the roof were UGLT

[@Paul_Tries]

Big Grand Designs vibes I love it!

[@dollyalvarez9973]

I love how he always says it's "bad" and it turns out to be incredible 🤣

[@PhoeFireaga]

You actually did pretty well with this. No surprise!

[@Molly-jx6wt]

I actually would love to play in this house 😂 A really cool one!

[@notmybao]

You should do shell challenges more! They're fun to watch :D

[@heather_bee]

✨Ambiance✨ made me lol bc of the new Dine Out LP with Gluon 😜 this is a fun challenge.

[@slowchan]

It turned out amazing!

[@sarahchacha4]

Disappointed that the new plumbob ceiling fan didn’t make an appearance

[@samijruby2475]

Near the beginning it almost looked like a ship to me 🤪

[@philunderwood8553]

Fun fact: There is a house in Virginia in the US called the "Trapezium House". It was built by an Irish bachelor in the early 1800's. He was persuaded by his servant that evil spirits lived in right angles, so he designed the house without any.

[@lavishgoblin]

dang you did so well!

[@jessicasockriter2654]

Great job James. When I first saw the shape I thought 17th century ship, but I like the house.

[@cherryoh531]

ur quality is so CRISP james

[@Sipu97]

I'm only six minutes in and I get Sims 2 vibes, love it

[@CG-rh9yg]

7:13 'a little bit of aMbIAnCe' omg I'm dead

[@pepebotella5210]

Not kidding when I say this would be my ideal home.

[@tourmii]

i love that you kept it a plumbob

[@JesseBensonJE553]

A little bit of *aMbIaNcE* 😆
