I have a love of cement tile that goes back at least a decade. If you ever see those insta posts “I love tile floors” that are just feet and some beautiful floorscape in Cuba or Paris or LA, those are my jam.
Since I’m not going to be travelling just yet, let me bring a little bit of that goodness home to my sims.
There are so many varieties out there, there will almost certainly be future offerings along these lines, but today let me introduce you to just a few.
Meet Mambo:
In 7 colorways, this stunning beauty is kind of infamous in the floor circuit. Mambo does have more variances than many of the other tiles I’ve played around with.
They match nicely with their own colorway, but because of the variations between them they may not play as nice with each other. (I call the salmon and gray one Charlene, she’s been a bit of a diva and is one of the primary reasons this set wasn’t out 2 days ago. She and Margot both needed to have some work done...)

Designed by Malaysian architect Eleena Jamil, the Bamboo Playhouse is a public pavilion located in Kuala Lumpur’s Perdana Botanical Gardens. The sustainable playhouse features a three-dimensional floorscape and tree-like columns that rise up to support the roof, offering a playful reprieve for the public that blends into the surrounding landscape.
The playhouse is situated on a small island in a large lake that stretches across the center of the gardens. The structure also contains a series of hanging “tree-houses” made from bamboo baskets, where visitors can enjoy meditative views of the lake. The playhouse has also been used as an event space for performances and exhibitions.
The design also features raised square platforms set at various levels to create different dimensions across the open structure. Jamil took her inspiration from traditional structures called wakafs, which serve as resting places for village communities in Malaysia.
Contemporary architectural designs made of bamboo are a rare sight in Malaysia, but the playhouse is a creative example of how the sustainable material can be used in fun new ways for other structures. According to Dezeen, “The Bamboo Playhouse was shortlisted [in 2015] for an award for a World Architecture Festival, where bamboo was touted as a revolutionary building material by Dirk Hebel.”

New collection: Ege ReForm Discovery
Are you ready to explore natural and manmade systems seen from above? Looking down, each miracle of nature has a unique power of its own, whether it’s the massive pressure of the roaring ocean or the stubbornness of the unmovable cliff always holding on to its majestic position. ReForm Discovery explores these interrelated forces and through the algorithm of the marks we leave behind, the collection interprets human-crafted constructions such as complex road maps, rigorous agricultural structures and neat yet somewhat chaotic city grids too.
In Discovery, the multi-level loop construction creates texture influenced by these networked systems and defines the 5 patterns: Planet, Earth, Network, Net and Cliffs. Available in sizes and shapes optimised according to the individual pattern, they can be used alone or combined to give a soft or dramatic expression to the floorscape.
A new member of our sustainable ReForm concept
When seen from above, the Earth is a perfect system. Looking down, each miracle of nature has a unique power of its own, whether it’s the massive pressure of the roaring ocean or the stubbornness of the unmovable cliff always holding on to its majestic position. Individually, these forces appear incompatible, but from a bird’s eye view it becomes obvious that they’re interrelated and highly adaptable.
Through the algorithm of the marks we leave behind, ReForm Discovery explores the relatedness of humans too. Complex road maps, rigorous agricultural structures and neat yet somewhat chaotic city grids are examples of manmade systems so large in scale they can only be comprehended from a distance. Natural wonders or human-crafted constructions, they’re all part of the same discoverable networked systems.
The designs
In this collection, the multi-level loop construction creates texture that’s influenced by these networked systems and defines the 5 patterns: Planet, Earth, Network, Net and Cliffs. Available in sizes and shapes optimised according to the individual pattern, they can be used alone or combined to give a soft or dramatic expression to the floorscape.
The colour groups
Discovery comes in 5 contemporary colour groups from subtle tone-on-tone shades to more rich tones, carefully coordinated for perfect combinations. It allows you to experiment with different spatial options that help define areas such as meeting points and quiet or communal zones, as well as catering to social distancing requirements and way-finding.
Natural phenomena inspired the colour palette of neutrals complemented by darker or almost supernatural bright shades that create either a subtle or powerful yet refined look. The colour groups are carefully chosen for their ability to combine into unique compositions.
Ash black
Black and grey tones with various colour saturations and coordinated contrasts add a dramatic yet understated ambience to your floor. A classic interior colour, ash black can be a bold choice.
Sand grey
Comprising the lightest Discovery colour group, sand grey combines beige and grey colour schemes into contemporary looks with a high degree of colour contrast.
Broken green
Featuring an elegant vintage touch, broken green combines interior darlings such as bottle green, forest green and emerald into contemporary colour compositions with interesting layers.
Ocean blue
Classic yet vibrant, ocean blue brings calm energy to any interior setting. Adding depth and interesting movement to the five patterns, this is a powerful and refined colour choice.
Wild berry
Edible delicacies from nature’s kitchen inspired this palette of bright, dark or slightly faded berry colours. A contemporary and bold interior choice to make a powerful statement.
If you want to explore Discovery further, feel free to order your very own brochure or samples right away.

WIP “The Princess, and the Pegasi”
My first new story in my 'Mountain Tales' storyline. A series of childrens 'fairytails' all set in Appalachia. This was from a dream that woke me about two days ago and I had to write out the skeleton. This is now offically the 1st re-write. A couple more is coming before I post it around Wensday on my FA acount. Still I thought you'd all like to read it. Yeah, I went overboard on this one, but I was having too much fun with it to give a damn. :) Comments are always appreciated, especially ones that will help improve it. (I use EMACS/Org-mode so ignore the **, and : formatting. Those won't be on the final version.) -- :info: The princess, and the Pegasus DOC: Thursday, June 28, 2018 version: 1140-063018-b1 :end: ** 1 - new A young girl peered out of the window at the gray landscape, deeply sighed. Before a storm rattled the dishes, and lashed the side of the small home with a waterfall. Now the pattering of the rain on the metal roof just made a soundscape of noise along with the gray haze that faded the mountains just a mile way. A deep fog adding to it, darkened the sky and noon-day. ** 2 new The red barn was barely visible though the haze, fog and mist. Nothing of remark, that old red barn. Happy memories of playing in it, a forrowed brow when she had to work in it. Jules Huffman, the WSAZ weatherman from Huntington, West Virgina said in his uplifting, smiling voice. "The rain's coming to an end, folks." But even Mr. Cartoon could barely register though the haze of her boredom. Wishing it was 3, so at least he could alliveate the bordem with Bugs Bunny, and Daffy Duck. Then on that non-descript barn, the door smacked the side with a loud CRASH!, and she yelled out "Pa!" But no answer, he was too busy working on the books of their business to hear their only child, "Ma?" Again no answer, since she was with Prince Valium now; snoring peacefully after a horrible night of sinisitus that kept her awake. Jessica was glad, at least she didn't get that from her. The door would be ripped off the hinges if someone didn't go and fasinit it. The water-soaked ground squished like a damp sponge under her bare feet, headed for the barn. At least the rain was so light it was more like walking though a cloud of mist. Her blond hair was straightening up down her shoulders, even if her sun-dress was barely damnpened. The barn's bone-dry floor coated her bare feet with a layer of dust. Holes made by the ant-lions dotted the floorscape, hand-hewn beams thrusted up toward the metal roof. Lined with the remaining dry and brown leaves of tobacco infusing the air with a strong sweet smell. A soft basey nickr came from a horse that peeked out from a cut window on a tan colored stall-door. "Old Rosie" the sign said. As Jessica opened, then walked into the belgim's stall she fluffed up the straw with a pitchfork, after pouring some new oats into her bucket. "Lousy day, hmm Rosie?" she asked the belgin as she stroked the broad roman nose. Rosie nickered, and nuzzled at Jennifer as if she was answener her. ** 3 new Suddenly there was a rapping, a rapping at the barn door. Who could it be now? As she opened it slowly, silver light flooded into the barn, and a black head thrusted into the door. The head pushed open the doors more, and followed quickly by a maginifiant black stallion! Not as tall as Rosie, but his sleek black body shown in blue-black from the light. Jessica was struck mute by her friend returning, for this black stallion had equally ebony wings tucked against his sides, the wings adorned with jet black feathers and she knew his wingspan was huge "Shadowfax, my old friend" she said as she wrapped her arms around his broad neck, He nickered at Rosie, nuzzling at her side, then nuzzled Jessica before he spoke, "Princess, the kingdom is being invaded, and we need you. I was asked to fetch you." he tossed his head to the side, as he said "They knew you are the only one I will allow to carry in lew of our friendship." ** 4 new The land was gold and jewels and people waved and cheered seeing Princess Jessica flying over them on her friend, Shadowfax, the good. Coming into the town was a huge, fat bloated ogre. How he could run with the blubber, like jello flapping with each heavy footstep, she couldn't tell. Clothed only with a set of bib-overalls that strained to hold the ogre in. But he too looked up and laughed. Seeing the pretty princess aside her broad winged pony. "Oh yes, a mosqueto comes to bite me?" it yelled in a gutteral voice. "Do your worse!" Suddenly Princess Jessica guided Shadowfax down into a dive right at the ogre. Not trying to guide the good pegasi, since the ogre would be hard to miss. But as the green giant picked up a side of a building as a club, Shadowfax suddenly flicked to the left. The princess as if she was mentally connected, leaned to the right her sword glowing blue "I shall!" she finally yelled at the ogre then a swip of Sting, her sword. The straps on his shoulders was cut, and the mighty ogre was show as the emperior he was! "NO!!!" he roared, dropping down to cover his...jewels. Then the pegasus turned, dove in for another and she swatted him on his ample behind! The ogre, now red, screamed out cuses and obsenities that would make a salior blush with shame then exploded in a puff of dandilion seeds that was scattered across the nine winds. ** 5 new Shadowfax looked over his shoulder at his princess, "That was too easy" She patted his side, and gave him a hand-full of sugar, "HOw so, faithful steed?" "An ogre is mearly muscule." he said, between munches, "They don't have the brains to chew gum and scratch their behinds at the same time. No, there is someone else. Someone far more cunning at work here" he then flapped his broad wings and flew higher, and higher to see the kingdom. The princess looked around at the layout of her lands. It was peaceful now in the main section since she dispached the ogre. But her excellent eyesight caught sight of movement on the east side, "There!" she pointed. "I see it" replied Shadowfax, and with a powerful sweep of his wings, the princess was hard pressed to hold on as he flew so forcefully toward the people running. ** 6 new "Oh no!" the princess explaimed, "The lion hord!" Sure enough, in a blitzkreg of huge white bodies, segmented into many sections with jaws like scyicles and two huge black eyes on a black head, the lion hord was a force to be reconed with. six huge steel legs clanked and squeeked along as they ran as fast as they could for one thing. The peaceful Ant village! A people her father had sworn to protect long ago, and she wasn't about to fail them! The ant people's screams was growing louder in Shadowfax and the Princess' ears as they swooped further down. The people was carrying squirming bundles of white babies in their own jaws, while warriors stood at ready with their own antenee, and jaws open and waving. At nearly ground level, the princess swung Sting but it was ineffective against the lion's body, Pegasus reared and kicked but he too wasn't able to make much progress. Finally she told him "Take to the clouds, my fine steed!" and without question he did with hard flaps of his wings. Higher, and higher he flew, while the ant people thought their defender had foresaken them. The warriors clashed, the others continued their exidist out of the town. But instead of foresaking them, mighty Shadowfax climbed higher until the very clouds was a ceiling to them. He hovered, and the princess rose her sword and yelled a spell out in Quentien. In a moment the sword once again glowed blue, but this time St. Elmo's fire gathered around her, then the pegasus. He laughed saying it was tickling him. She then pointed down "Dive, Shadowfax! Dive down into the town once again!" Again, without question he did. He even folded his wings to gain more speed and the princess held on tight, "How close?" he yelled, as the wind whipped though mane and hair. Her response; "Point blank range!" As soon as they came within roof top level, she pointed Sting down at the town, spoke a spell again in Quentin, and the blue fire surrounding them flowed from the sword down into the town, evenloping the lion hord. They twitched and convolsed as millions of volts cooked them, with a nice brown crust. Everytime a small bump popped out, the fire jumped from them into another, dodging and jumping over any ant and leaving none even touched but the lions, they fried like a good hog. Soon the air was filled with the scent of cooked ant-lions, and the princess quipped "We just need some garlic and basl, right Shadowfax?" she giggled. "Id add a bit of alfala as well" he added to that, as well as a throaty laugh. They circled the Ant town, as their cheers came up with their antenee, and front legs waving at them in thanks. ** 7 new All though this, neither was happy with this. The ogre could have been dispached by a child, the ant hord a little harder, "When do you think we'll see the mind behind this?" she asked. He flapped his wings, pulled higher into the air, "No idea. There is someone very powerful behind all this. ** 8 new Shadowfax pulled up, wings flapping hard as he squeeled, and snorted. The princess pulled her sword, "Oh no! It's the Witch Queen of Agrabar!" Without even trying the 50' tall queen reached out and grabbed the pegasi. The queen's silk robes slowly waved in the breeze, as the princess tried to get away. But she was powerless in the grip. What's worse is when the broad face came to the princesses she tried to cover her ears for it was said never let the Witch speak, less she hyponotize her. "I've called you three times for dinner. Put up Rosie, and come on in." Jessica blinked, and she was back in the barn again, "Ok Ma, feelin' better?" "Yeah, now comon" As they was walking to the house, the clouds had broken and some blue was starting to peek though the gray. Her mother looked down at her "Witch Queen of Agrabar hm?" Jennifer just nodded, "Uh huh..." She got her head fuzzled, much to her giggles. "Guess we'll have to get you some better reading materal. What say tomarrow we go to the drug store and you can blow your allance on comics?" "Yeah!!!" she jumped and laughed, as she closed the house door to dinner. end
