#builds: blingkawi

[nonsensical-pixels]

welcome to the lanna hotel!

So... I didn't manage to build that lot I mentioned in a day, but you know what? I did it in 16 hours! This absolute monster of a build has been done through blood, sweat, and tears, and I am so damn proud of it. It's my masterpice for this 'hood.

Welcome to the Lanna Hotel! Aside from exorbitant prices and eye-watering nightly charges, we guarantee the most luxurious and pampered stay on this side of Blingkawi. Relax by our infinity pool, sunbathe on our many private balconies, curl up in our library, gorge yourself on our buffet breakfast, or spend hours exploring our halls for things the whole family can participate in. The choice is yours, the upkeep is ours!

So, this doesn't actually function as a hotel lot, because Sims 2 is dumb and doesn't let those function properly in main 'hoods, but it does work as an apartment lot! (Kinda.) Miraculously, the lot didn't star pink souping until I was done taking all of the pics, yay!

My favourite shots of this build are below the cut, but you can view all of the ones I took in this Imgur album, if you wish. Yes, I'm dedicated to this one build.

The lobby and small fish pond.

The breakfast room and rooftop grill.

And the floorplans!

welcome to rainbow park 🌈

idk if anyone remembers, but some moons ago i converted a bunch of animals from ts4 cottage living, and they had rainbow recolors 🌈 that i never got to use. well, i've finally found a place for them! this park is my favourite i've ever built, pretty much 💘

the cho complex - jewelry store

Here's a small offering in the form of a build, since I haven't been that active recently (IRL life got really busy XD). It's a jewelry store, which is part of a much larger shopping complex: the Cho Complex in Blingkawi.

It's quite small, but very luxurious. And yes, I know I spelt 'jewelry' wrong, you don't have to rub it in...

welcome to restoran kapal laut

have another blingkawi lot! restoran kapal laut is actually designed to look better at night, but i didn't have any sims to move in yet and didn't want squares in my images :p

as always peek under the cut for more images ~

interior and exterior shots

the front porch

it's not a seafood restaurant if u dont have fish

trophy case should have kittens in it irl but it's sims 2 buy mode and kittens are trophies... kinda

the lights were different for every table, i loved that. we stan variety!

the courtyard also had a sleeping puppy but again sims 2 buy mode things

bonfire 🔥

floorplan

first floor--as you can see there's an unshown residential area for the residents of this lot, but that would've been too many pics and it's too generic lol

second floor, the roof killed me and i surrendered

the cho complex - babble bakery

Another store in the Cho Complex! This is just a small bakery and cafe, but your sims are guaranteed to love its cozy, sweet atmosphere... I think.

welcome to blingkawi beach

i'm sure we're all tired of the weird drama that this simblr has gotten into, so here's a welcome distraction, at least for me. as most of you know, i just got back from vacation, so i wanted to make a neighborhood at least partially inspired by the beautiful island my family got to visit. i call it blingkawi island, and here's the first lot: the beach!

i'll be posting more updates about this little world soon, so i hope you enjoy it!

more pics below the cut <3

the fruit juice stall. or maybe it was an ice cream stall. you decide!

the boat rental company's weathered shack. also featuring a wip of mine... can you spot it? 😂

the public toilets. not much to say about them lol

the restaurant, the inside has a small cheap gift shop

here's the view from the beach! the white foundation you see is supposed to be the docks but i couldn't get them to stretch over the water, so, uh... lounge area anyone?

welcome to the blingkawi bar and lounge

i have never been to a bar or lounge, so i was just making this up as i went along lmao. slightly less detailed than all of the other blingkawi builds, but it has its charm ✨

more interior and exterior pics below the cut <3

welcome to the goth family

i'm kinda burnt out on blingkawi rn, so let's head back to my more than a pleasant view playthrough! (not to be confused with pleasantview reborn, which is the one where i actually show the gameplay instead of just the builds, lmao)

today, im here to present the wonderful goth family, and their sparkling new modern house! with actual modern amenities!

more pics below the cut <3

the main hallway. i tried to add some clutter below the stairs so i now have a headcanon that dina snowboards. 🏂🏻

alex's lil bedroom. yes, that's a surfboard bench. dina 🏂🏻and alex 🏄🏻‍♀️

the living room, it's not a goth house until there's a grand piano

the dining room + tea room and kitchen

the nursery, because dina is pregnant and i'm praying for a girl (there were WAY too many boys born in this hood). said baby may not be morty's baby but shhh who is gonna tell him?

the master bedroom

the guest bedroom. cassandra stays over sometimes so her stuff is here.

this is morty's idea of a toilet
