bathrooms n-2 sims


So if you have just one sim, you have -1 bathrooms? This is not logical.

I personally like to start on a large lot and lately have been building "impossible" houses.  I'm experimenting with floating houses that stand on one pillar, with a pool under the house.  Since I don't have Seasons installed, there's no problem with leaving exercise machines, hot tubs, etc. outside on a large deck (usually bridging a scenic gorge of some sort).

Houses themselves tend to be built around a central bathroom and kitchen structure with dining, living/entertainment, bedrooms etc. radiating out from there.  I try to make things so the Simmies can wander around the house easily without spending the entire time walking.

If I get seasons, I'll have to add exercise rooms and enclose the hot tub, I guess.

I build and decorate sim houses based on general feng shui principles (not the specific ones that IRL require knowing a person's birth month and year, as that would be impossible given that sim 'years' are so much shorter than human ones). These include not building a bathroom above a kitchen, having a bed face the doorway, but not be aligned with it (same with desks), not placing mirrors or other reflective surfaces in bedrooms, not placing furniture in such a way that a sim's back is against a window, etc. I know that the sims couldn't care less about these things, but it makes me feel better to have them that way.

Hmm I am apparently stupid b/c besides the obvious I have never really thought of building specific rooms for things outside of the traditional kitchen, bedrooms, bathrooms, living room(s)...and then gee..I wonder why I can never organize the house properly.  I guess IRL most people don't have their treadmills and weight machines plopped in the middle of their living rooms or outside either *L*
