Building with The Showroom CC Collection

It took some time to figure out exactly what kind of living space we wanted to create. After some trial and error with ideas, it was starting to come together. Essentially, we wanted to create a living space with a sunken area which would act as the core part of the room.

Due to the way we designed the room, we also had these two “balcony” style aspects on either side. Admittedly it was difficult to figure out how to furnish these but all things considered, they turned out okay.

The area furthest away from the room entrance was turned into another seating area along with a juke box from The Sims 4 Get Famous.

On the opposite side, we created a small reading nook that Sims can use and also used the coat and shoe racks on the other side of the door to complete the entrance area.

While it was a simple build for the most part, it did provide its own small challenges. The most difficult part was probably knowing how to fill the spaces without it being overwhelming or looking too empty. Overall, we think we didn’t do too badly!

Our Thoughts

Well, what do we think of this Sims 4 Living Room CC Set from Surely-Sims? Simply, we love it! The objects in this mini collection as well as the variety of colours and patterns showcased throughout.

The retro style is something that works so well in The Sims 4 however, there aren’t a great deal of objects in the game that allow us to fully re-create the style. This collection helps fill that gap.

The Sims 4 Get Famous and Bowling Stuff Packs are just two packs that complement The Showroom Collection perfectly and give players an excellent number of ways to create different rooms. There are objects from other packs that also work well with Surely-Sims content that also helps bring the mid-century modern/retro style to life!

Overall, as we stated, we love this mini custom content collection and we can’t wait to see more from Surely-Sims in the future!
