Cheeseweasel's ~ Post Modern Challenge
« on: August 18, 2023, 06:32:49 PM »
It's been awhile since we did a house challenge together. Here's a new randomizer I found. I'm going to give this a shot.

Style: Post Modern
Lot size:20 x 30
Budget: 35,000 simoleons
# of rooms: 5
One room must be 7x7
Basement: yes
Attic : no
Color scheme - hexcodes: 595643, 4e6b66, ed834e, ebcc6e, and ebe1c5

Here's the randomizer in case you want to try something different.  https://perchance.org/cs-s3buildgen

Edited to add the info below, so it's all together.



More notes on the color theme of the challenge. This includes the link to the site with information and swatch of the color along with name of color as typed below. I jumped in-game to get some screenshots. -- Note: Colors may look differently using different wall textures. Click images to see larger view.

Here's what I came up with for the challenge. I went about $500 over budget due mostly to the landscaping. I ran out of money before I could furnish the basement. It looks a little goofy, but it's tame compared to all the images I saw as examples of Post Modern. Apparently Post Modern features include curved forms, decorative elements, asymmetry, bright colors/colorful, and eclectic.

If I'm understanding correctly, post modern homes can look something like this?

Yes, I'd say that one qualifies. Very nice looking house. It looks like something a person would actually live in Some of the images I Googled were so wacky I wondered what they were thinking.

Thank you!! A friend showed me a screenshot of a house and asked me to build a house with it. So that's what came of it. lol

I searched on the term last night too and was like what?! The buildings I saw definitely could be considered art pieces.

I agree with the whacky! You did well considering the limited examples showing up in Google.
It's very far removed from what I thought it might be and it's very far removed from my typical stiyle. :D
It might take me a while to get up to speed.  I have no clue at this moment and I might just wing it.  ::) (I only had about 4 hours sleep last night so I'm slower than usual today).

Color question. Are the last 3 hexcodes a very similar color?

I was going to cheat and use a ouse I already had but everything is way over the price range. :D

Thanks. I was having trouble reading the code but the last 3 seemed to be all the same orange.

I was thinking something similar. That's another reason I wanted to get notes on the colors.
