How much time do you spend on houses?
poppy_123:
I have spent around 1 week so far on a new house i am making for my newly-wed couple to move into and start a family it is all kitted out and has every top of the noch thing you could buy.
I always spend at least 1hour or 2on a room to make it look nice. It might sound weird but its what you have done at the end of the day.
.X. :D

Wowie. It usually takes me about 20 minutes to throw together a small nice house and furnish it. If I want a big house, it takes around 45 minutes. Wow, I'm fast. Lol. But sometimes I'm lazy and build some then leave and come back and work on it later on.
I just build a pretty big two story house and it took me 50 minutes, longer than I thought. IT took me so long because I kept screwing up on the building the walls part and I couldn't find the wallpaper I wanted.
I'll post pictures soon. It's a colorful house, but a few rooms are the same color.
Walk-in Hallway is Orange.
Living Room is blue.
Kitchen is Pink. (It's like pink and grey . It's awesome!)
Play room is Orange also.
Bathroom is Purple.
The daughter's room is Pink.
Extra Room for Boys is Blue. (I'm in gen. 3 and still no boys born.)
Upstairs hallway is Orange.
Grandparent's Bedroom is Green and wood colored.
Current Parents room is Baby Blue.

If I am building for a Sim I like, it usually takes me 2-3 days. Of course I can always move them to house previously modelled for someone else, but then it is not going to be unique, is it. Furnishing is not that hard, the hardest part is to build having in mind how their lives are going to evolve and taking into consideration the kids to be born and all.
The last house I built was for a bishonen couple with 3 kids. The idea was to build an enclosed (sort of) garden whereas the rest of the house would be extended around it. Well, the house ended up quite big for my taste and not very impressive, and the garden is relaxing but kinda small. It took me 3 days to finish it off and move the family in, but there is no other house like that in the whole neighbourhood. Quite satisfied with the results but I think I could had done better.

I despise building houses. I have zero creativity when it comes to them. If I don't chuck my Sims in a premade house that I downloaded or one from Maxis, then I spend about 10 minutes throwing together a crappy house for them. But after spending two hours on the Sims, I no longer can be arsed to build them a house, too. LOL.

For me it can take from 5 hours or so up to about 50 hours. It just depends on what type of house it is. I usually build them on a foundation with a basement and attached garage so that can take some time. This is just build time. It doesn't include the outside lot decorations or anything like that.
I remember one house that I built with three floors and a basement.
Coming out of the third floor in the back was a balcony with a small pool that had a water slide down into a pool that was in the basement of the house. The pool in the basement had a square island in the middle where the sims could get out of the pool. Then they took an elevator up to the first floor. That one took me forever to finish. It was pretty interesting watching the sims swim up the water slide though.
I've still got that house on an old pc somewhere. If the mood strikes me sometime I'll fire it up and try to post some pictures of it.
