Two Futuristic Houses for a Space Colony
ingeli:
I finally got my new blog up - and two houses for download, built for my Space Colony version of Sunset Valley, Colonization 102. It's a small basic semi-bunker and a Science Museum:
The small bunker is built on the smallest lot in Sunset Valley so it can easily be placed anywhere.
The Science Museum is a Community Lot showing collections of rocks, butterflies and fish, with a library and a café. Its built on Summer Hill Court 20 but you can place it on any of the bigger lots, of course.
Science Hill (Summer Hill Court) with the Science Museum on the left. The building on the right side is similar but there I have an Art Gallery instead of a Museum. In the middle you see the Science Dome, containing the Science Lab and the Produce Store, both hidden underground.

My favourite of the three is the small lot. The glass walls are a nice design feature drawing the eye to that corner of the lot and the overall proportions of the lot are pretty much perfect. The glass starts to lose it's impact on a larger scale. I'm a little unclear though due to the shots whether the glass area is open air or not.
With the issue of having the gridlines show up in your images, what you can do to combat that so you get better shots is take your images while you've got terrain paint selected, then hide your cursor under a bush. :)
You should still include probably an overhead view of both of the houses so people can see what you've got inside, plus give them an idea of how much it costs so they can see whether or not it's affordable in-game. Plus Pescado will want to know what sorts of furnishings you've used in case you've used the substandard furnishings.

There are more pictures on my blog, I didnt't want to clog the post here - I will take your advise on the grid trick, was a little too fast there :D.
The Small Bunker comes in two versions: one unfurnished, and one with furnishings - high quality plumbing and appliances, the bed may be lower standard but I also aim to keep the theme (metallic simple) and I used only base game stuff for the small house, no store items or downloaded content. And yes, as the roof is open, the green house counts as open air. There are plants in the green house.
The Science Museum has some store items (modern doors) and the Gender Doors from MTS.

I like the last picture with the Science building and museums. Just confirmed for me the idea to put several of the rabbitholes on one 60x60 lot and clear up space for more residential building.
Your lot is quite imaginative and creative.

The science museum looks terrible outside, maybe the insides redeem this. Of course, it might blend in well if all other buildings around it adhere a similar style, but as a standalone it's pretty weak.
The tiny house is pretty damn well done. I really like it.
The dome is pretty cool too, but I'm worried about my precious robot fish.
