Architecture: Kitchens

An X-ray of the historical context. Part 1: 1800s-1957s

History helps us to understand our past and how we come to today. I am studying architecture, that’s why I see how the different historical contexts influence their architecture.

This is a kind of help to the people who play the History Challengue at the time of building their homes and giving more personality to their decades

I’m not trying to have absolute reason, if there’s any mistake, please let me know.

These room styles are not the only ones, but they are an example to help.

Going from one decade to another doesn't mean that the previous style disappears, there are familiar/historical contexts that could not afford to be at the forefront of technology.

Don't limit yourself. This is a game, if you don’t want to make it historically accurate ITS OKAY

In Victorian houses, the kitchen is a separate space from the rest of the house and with independent access, as it was a service space where servants, wives and daughters spent a great deal of time. They are even located in the basement, with minimal ventilation that followed the design of the facade and not the function of the interior.

A traditional Victorian kitchen are big, with a large work space in the center and a large kitchen range embedded in the wall.

Late XIX Century /Early XX Century

During the end of the Victorian era, new appliances emerged as the refrigerator and oven with a more modest dimension. They were still a place where you had to do several tasks at the same time and by hand, from washing, cooking, storing, ironing, chopping, grinding, etc.

The kitchen was not something standard as we know, the measurements or heights of the furniture changed between different homes, They were normally furniture that could be movedor that weren't attached to the walls except in the case of ovens.

They were generally poorly lit, covered in wood panels and with stone floors to prevent deterioration.

Edwardian Era

The kitchen begins to take a certain order inside a house, since although it is still considered for service and womens and therefore hid inside the house, it is a space where you spent a great time there, in addition the advances of the kitchen spaces take course towards the rationalization of the useful spaces.

Gas stoves and wood stovescome up in the Edwardian era, just like the running water system as we know it today, where you no longer had to pump water into the yard or pull it out of a well. Ceramic and stone floors remain a trend.

After the World War I

Problems never before seen begin to appear. The era of the servitude of the aristocratic house was about to end. Housing spaces are scarce, a method is needed to gather the minimum living spaces in a repetitive way for families with limited budgets.

Margarete SchUtte, an Austrian architect begins to see the problem of housing organization. She designs the Frankfurt kitchen model: a narrow kitchen, on one side was the stove, on the other there were cabinets with a sink and in front of the window there was a space to work.

The kitchen was a conscious design decision to minimize the number of steps needed when working on it. But users often had difficulties. Not used to the workflows for which the space was created, they often didn't know how to use the kitchen. And in the kitchen where there was only room for one person, she perpetuated the idea of women in housework, instead of emancipating them

Revolutionaries 20s

The Bauhaus was the school of architecture that marked the revolution in modern design since 1919. Erna Meyer was the first designer to incorporate ergonomic criteria for the design of the kitchen.

She advised housewives to keep everything at hand, reduce the amount of movements needed and take frequent breaks. In 1927, kitchens were still service areas and forbidden to guests.

The Stuttgart kitchen, communicated directly with the living room (A precursor of contemporary kitchens). The new designs may have improved life in the kitchen, but it would still be room for women unquestionably, even among the most progressive of the moment.

The Great Depression

In the 30s, not much was innovated largely because of social problems, this was delegated only to high society sectors or habitability experiments. It is on this date that other models were developed that tried to improve the permeability between the kitchen and the dining room, family reunion place.

The Munich kitchen , designed by the architect Hanna Löw, intended to reduce the isolation to the person was subjected from domestic chores by incorporating a large stained glass window; thus improving the visual contact between the kitchen and the living room.

Despite its progressivism, this design had less scope than the previous ones and was poorly valued despite presenting solutions very advanced to the time. But it is a design that could be impregnated for an avant-garde sim in their stories.

Minimal and communal compartmentalization

In the period between wars there are also questions about housing from a community perspective. Here studies on new models of residential buildings were initiated.

The transition to a busy society had to incorporate a change in the way of life with a renewal of the domestic space. In new thoughts the key is to eliminate uses that tie women to housing, such as cooking, childcare, toilets and showers. These uses became communal, as did the laundry or dining room.

This design of the Narkomfin Building have the minimum space for a dining room and incorporated small gas stoves to heat the food prepared in the collective kitchens, in case you want to keep privacy,

Word War II

During the 1940s, with the outbreak of the Second World War, the designs became inferior and on the periphery of Europe or in Scandinavian countries. The idea of a work organization in the form of a triangle (between oven, refrigerator and sink) was a trend.

The work surfaces went from being totally functionalist to a design with a certain humanization of the epsacium and not something so mechanical. Were evenly distributed to cook with the same oven or to prepare food, the windows to illuminate begin to be placed on the basins.

In the post-war period the future of integrated and compact kitchens, used to rebuild homes in Europe built with US appliances, began to be seen

lCold War and the Surburbian Housewife

In the 1950s, in a period of cold war, the return to normality was something one aspired to and that’s how one begins to romanticize and idealize the idea of a happy suburban housewife with a husband returning from work safe and sound. In the 1950s, integrated kitchens with modular and flexible arrangements were launched on the market.

The DIN standards allowed to improve the compositions of the furniture of the kitchen, where the washing machine, dryer, kitchen and refrigerator appear as something indispensable but also this generates that the kitchens are submitted to the concept of minimalist kitchen.

This is because the kitchen in the post-war period is governed by the rules of advertising and market, where the real needs were focused on smooth, uniform and depersonalized surfaces.

TS4: Maid’s Uniforms (Dresses + Cap)

I wanted to have maxis match maids for my Edwardian (previously Victorian) Windenburg game so I made these dresses by using the base game’s maid’s dress textures and added a few recolors into the mix. I also converted the cap from Sims 3 to finish off the uniform. 

I wanted to make a shorter one too, that reached just to the calves, but couldn’t find an appropriate mesh. :( 

PS: This will be most likely my last Edwardian CC before I go back to the history challenge and I’ll move onto the Medieval CC.

Lookbook: Johanna Lehmann

Johanna is the oldest daughter of Peter and Adelheid Lehmann. As of 1887 she is six years old. Her clothing reflects her family’s status as better off working people- pieces of Peter’s furniture can be found in fashionable saloons of Europe, though the family only sees a portion of that money, and so Johanna has some nice clothes, but nothing too impractical. She still has to help with the chickens after all!

In staunch opposition to some of the more austere, practical Darlington lookbooks that we’ve seen in this decade is Rosella Darlington in the early 1910s. Now twenty years old, she is the epitome of late Edwardian, pre-war fashion, with its flowing layers of fabric, high waistlines, and slimmer, full length dresses.

Through a combination of her own sewing skill and Lady Harrington’s gifts, Rosella’s wardrobe has matured immensely since her teenage years. She has moved away from childish elements like short hemlines and Peter Pan collars, instead leaning heavily into decadent fabrics and a modern silhouette. However, there’s still a sort of dreamy girlishness to all of her looks, highlighted by her pastel, rose, and white color palette.

She has also fully embraced the luxury that her younger wardrobe hinted at. Judging from her looks, she is far from a day maid who lives on a farm. Rather, her style tells the story of how she envisions herself. For this reason, there are elements of late Victorian fashion like puffed sleeves and dramatic hats that highlight her Edwardian style. These remind her of her grandmother, and make her looks even more fanciful than other, more modern wardrobes, like those Lady Georgiana Harrington epitomizes.

There is some overlap between Rosella and Lady Georgiana’s looks, notably in the outfit categories and jewelry. All of Rosella’s jewels are also seen in Georgiana’s lookbook, indicating that George shares her expensive items to make Rosella’s wardrobe possible. The exception to this is a small pair of pearl and ruby earrings that George gave to Rosella on her 18th birthday. Rosella wears these with many of her looks, from her finest evening gown to her morning dress, and I imagine that they are her most prized possession.

Again, if you’re searching for some inspiration for late edwardian outfits, this is my personal interpretation. It may not be 100% accurate, still I think you’ll have a good idea of how women’s silhouette should have looked like.

For May Florie Walsh’s I’ve choose green and earthy tones. She’s very modest and prefers comfy clothes instead of fancy ones. Hats are getting smaller, May in fact does not love big headpieces that were so common during the first Edwardian period.

Another 1898 spring day dress

03.10.2020 edit: Fixed a problem with spikes appearing when zooming out. Please redownload!

30.07.2020 edit:

Made some tiny changes to the mesh and added a new bump map, so that the dress would look smoother. Please redownload if the blockiness was bothering you!

***

Hi everyone!

The previous 1898 day dress was quite glam, so I thought it’d be nice to have a simpler one as well. Ironically, only while meshing I realised that this one has a way more complicated cut, so it might be not that ‘simple’ after all… But it looks - at least to me - like it’s made of cotton and the pattern is way less outstanding as well, so maybe it wasn’t a total miss?

Comes in 13 swatches:

Base Game compatible

HQ mod compatible (pictures taken with the mod)

all LODs

custom thumbnail, bump and specular maps, no shine

tagged as casual, party and hot weather

found under long dress subcategory

colour tagged

allowed for random

PDN for recolours included - you don’t need it for the mesh to work

The only problem I spotted is that if your sims are really huge and sit down at a table, the skirt can clip with it. I’m afraid there isn’t much I can do about it, but if you notice anything else, please let me know!

Hope you’ll like it, enjoy :)
