Hopefully the sims team makes it possible for multi purpose lots to happen because they already have the tools in the pack they are about to release it would be nice for us to be able to zone rooms in the lot for the public and for personal use just like you can zone the different apartments for each tenant in the same lot
LittleMsSam has an Auto Employees mod that works as a lot trait and is activated by clicking on doors/arches/gates. I'm curious to see how it plays with the new lot type coming with this pack.
Although there is no multipurpose lots (at least that I’m aware of), LittleMsSam has a mod that kinda has the same functionality. The mod Auto Employees adds a custom trait you can apply to lots to auto spawn employees for specific lot-type tied objects. So with this mod you can classify your build as a library, add this trait to the lot and it will spawn an employee to run the espresso bar and the other retail
@@Flemsplort I was thinking about this mod the whole time! It could make this entire building functional. Even with For Rent. Each person would rent the apartment and the shop and you could add the lot trait for that shop to each apartment.
Here’s an idea of how to make cars happen in ts4: Make cars rabbit holes (sim will get in car and drive for a short length before both disappear; can program it to work on specific lots) You can’t actually travel with your sim, but your sim can go to work, go to skill classes, or go to new special activities (the movies, a friend’s house, etc) Then, allow sims to park their car in their home lot. Have it be tied to an item, like a parking space; you can even give it swatches so it can have a paint outline, a chalk drawing, be invisible, etc. Finally, add two new skills: driving and car repair. Sims can practice driving by going to a driving class, reading a book, getting driving practice from an adult (rabbit hole). You can even have a sim practice parking/parallel parking! For car repair, your sim can take a skill class, read a book, watch a tutorial, or fix up a junker. This can also come with a new mechanic career!
as far as garage doors go, i think a garage band stuff pack (since apparently theyre back now) would be awesome for that! it could come with a drum kit and maybe some band mechanics that work a bit like the karaoke machines
Omg the grunge potential is awesome. Also maybe there could be a broken car you could work on to get your sims handiness up? ThT way we have a car but its still not functional.
I want cars just like in the sims 2 more like decorations than fonctional but you can woohoo in it, repair one, teach your child to drive and have a garage. It's totally fine if the cars just desapear with your sims when you use it to go somewhere, it's still more realistic than your sims walking to an other city!
i agree i feel like this is a better idea but i think a lot of ppl will get upset about that and theyd say that like oh cars were done dirty ect so who knows, they cant please everyone tho
@@lorindamcaliece9435 those who want cars like in the sims 3 just don't understand how a game work, they won't do it it's just impossible. It's just like those people who expect to see the other units while you play with one family with for rent
@@Sojichai yeah i agree its a pretty shallow way to think imo, the limitations of this game are endless considering its age ect im just happy to be able to make my own apartments in general!!!
12:08 regarding cars, I’ve been thinking it would be a good compromise to get motorcycles instead because I agree that the infrastructure in the sims worlds doesn’t make sense for cars. This way, we could get functional garage stuff (the things I would do to make an actual garage with a garage door and tool boxes and Jerry cans and oil stains and work benches and peg boards of tools and a table saw and those wonderful garage things would make your grandma faint lol) that make sense with the existing game. And I think being able to fix up a used motorcycle would be so cool!! And maybe more gameplay would be having to get the motorcycle license before being able to teach a teen or someone else. I have so many ideas about this tbh. But yeah, MOTORCYCLES.
@@camiu15that’s what I’m thinking!!! They could just use the same system and maybe the motorcycles just go a bit faster!!! I’m glad someone else is on board!
i feel like a lot of ppl will crack it if we get motorcycles and not cars but i do love that idea, agree 100% that ts4 is just not equipped to handle cars unfortunately but weve gone so long without them soo
This is what i was thinking! Release a transport game pack and have a complete garage (with actual gameplay) and motorbikes or even mopeds! We have the animations for the bike already it's not that far of a stretch and these smaller transport options would work the same as bikes - and be a good compromise. Have fixer-upper options and teaching teens to drive them (and if they don't then they have to do a course as a young adult!)

Hey Kayla nice build! I’ve got a video idea for you, why don’t you Build town houses inspired by base game townie homes (goth, landgrabb, pancakes) all side by side *edited to shut a few people up in the comment section* 😂
Some comments really read like people talking to an AI and not to a real person in their comments. Just bare instructions and demands. No "hej nice video" "cool content what about this idea" "love this, would love to see this".... Just demands. I would go crazy.
@@Jojojozilla wasn’t a demand it was an idea? If she doesn’t do it i really couldn’t care less i just thought it would be something she would be into as she has renovated a lot of base game homes before 🙄
I love the idea that the cat is just around all of the buildings. Like, a store cat. A friend has a cat that wanders between the neighbors' homes sometimes, but they all know who she actually belongs to and I think make sure she gets home. Feels kind of accurate for this type of side-by-side build.
I absolutely ADORE this build!! Totally nailed the vibes- definitely one of my favorite builds! For some reason I imagine all the owners to be best friends and hang out in eachother’s stores and stuff-
The resedent cat reminds me of that one time i was at a second-hand book store with my dog, i was very suprised they even allowed him in, but within seconds all the workers were and giving him pets. I love the idea of the book store being more of a libarery where you can buy second-hand books, but you can also just hang out there and read a book with the store owner's cat in your lap, it sound like a place i would hang out at a lot when i was younger
I think my final Sims 4 dream would be multi use lots like this where you could have it be multiple stores or multi store plus multi apartment above. I feel like that's one of the last plausible major updates. Being able to have multiple lot types on the same lot would be amazing and I feel like we finally have all of the building blocks for it
The cafe house is SO BEAUTIFUL. I don't recognize those blue details, you might as well have created them specifically for this build haha. But seriously it looks lovely and so realistic, it really feels like a British ground floor shop below apartments
22:45 so, I’m uniquely qualified to talk about this. I was a foster kid& my foster parents owned a bookstore (with a cafe across the st😂) and we had a bookstore cat! His name was mango. We didn’t live above the store (it wasn’t liveable…) but mango did live IN the store. So, yes, it is normal to have the litter box in the bathroom everyone uses. We only had 1 bathroom& it was never messed with. I spent my afternoons laying in between shelves reading or in the front window reading… honestly, I’d give anything for someone to shake me awake and I find that I had fallen asleep reading between the shelves and it was time to go home. Well, that got a little dark.
i really like an idea of making this building as townhouse after the new update with stores as a public places, because sims can use them as a skill building areas (flower table for example) and library for reading books. i definately will try this after update!!
I spent a couple days on my shell! I’m so proud of it, I often get stumped on building the outside of my building but this really helped me. I did a warehouse conversion that’s occulty…
Thinking about cars in the sims… I think a possible way for them to add them would be almost a car racing expansion pack - so racecars and even normal/vintage cars for your sims to race around a track. There could also be something like you mentioned fixing broken cars and garage doors obviously, but I agree they probably wouldn’t add them for roads
BUILD-CHALLENGE IDEA: you can only use ONE item from each pack, kit so on. You can repeat that item (example: placing four of the same chair) but you can’t use two different chairs from the same pack or one bed and one counter from same pack
Flower Store apartment is the best. Just that the door in the skinny hallway is a literal killer. It opens up towards the stairs. Imagine walking up that stairway, someone opens the door, you get spooked and take a step back, bam, now you ded xD
i know this build was a while ago, and this isnt a necessary comment, but i thought up little lives for the sims who live here! - in the bookstore, i was thinking that it's a young guy living alone, he got the store from his dad, he still has the family cat, and although his gf stays over, she doesnt live with him - for the florist, i think its a super cute, pastel girl who has a punk rock gf who shes teaching to arrange flowers. again, they dont live together, theyre waiting for a bigger place -and lastly, for the cafe, i thought it was a husband and wife, possibly expecting, and the husband does all the coffee and customers, while the wife handles business. the desk in the bedroom is for him, to do normal people computer things on, whereas the downstairs office space is for her to do her business things with i know everyone including simsie will have their own thoughts on who lives here, but i just thought id share my idea
They could make a Stuff Pack based on cars. From what I’ve seen with every Sruff Pack, they add a few new animations but mostly reused ones, but I have a few ideas. Sims will maybe not actually drive around, but it would just be a way for you to travel to other lots, like with a phone. Would be cool if you could place cars in your inventory and place them wherever you want and have names for them, like with bikes. Also that you can turn on the lights on the car, and start the car. If two sims sit in the car they could talk to each other and it also could be a romantic spot similar to when they sit on a bench but in the backseat. The talk interactions may require first person camera mode to actually be able to click on the sims. Other interactions could be accessed by clicking on the car. Gameplay cars wouldn’t have to replace the debug cars. Would also be nice if teens could take driver’s license and also when sims go to work and other things, the car vanishes into a rabbit hole with the sim. When teens learn to drive they pay for driving lessons. Maybe after 3-5 lessons they’ll get to the driving test, and make it a rabbit hole experience instead of a skill. Pop up messages could be fun, where things could either go bad, great or neutral at random. An embarrassed moodlet for failure and confident for success. For build/buy it could be mostly garage themed but also have a few community items like a decorative gas station, signs and parking spots. Maybe an opportunity for a drive in cinema. Stuff Packs usually have a few gameplay features but not enough to make them a Game Pack, which is totally ok imo. If cars came as a kit it would be sad as kits are mostly a small set of decorative items and it would probably require cars being a half assed base game feature. I think cars as a Stuff Pack would offer just as much gameplay as any other Stuff Pack, so why not? 🤷🏼♀️ I hope they’ll take it into consideration. I think dispite negative talk, which is inevitable at this point, people would probably buy the pack anyway.
I agree with the car thing! Cars made sense in Sims 2 because you had to call a taxi to get a community lot, so driving your own car did save time, but with Sims 4, you've been able to walk to community lots from the base game. I guess it would look cool, but let's be real, the sims are just going to pull out of their driveway, and then have a loading screen into the lot. I can't see them taking the time to program cars that drive along the world's roads at this point in the game's lifespan.
Do you think it might be possible for these speed builds that run a little long to be split into two videos so we could still see the rest of the furnishing? I totally get it if not, though!
Hear me out, garage band kit. You can create bands, play drums, sing, all as a group. Comes with garage decor, boxes and fixer up car. The car needs handiness skill a d can be used to teach to drive (a rabbit hole). They could get moodlets and memories from it.
Ok hear me out.... they could be residential and you can have a type of shop or store if you use the lower levels and the hch kit you can sell pizza waffles etc. With the outdoor adventure pack I think they have that sellers table where you can sell other stuff....idk I think that could work.
Yeah, and if you have seasons, you could use the flower arrangement table and sell the arrangements on the selling table from either Jungle Adventure or City Living!
I came to say the same thing. I wonder if those selling tables could work on residential rentals. Eco Lifestyle also has those tables, City Living has the painting-selling thing, that could work, too.
a fun realistic building thing to try in flower shops is adding a walk in cooler with flowers ! I’m a florist and the walk in cooler is such a magical part of the store for ppl and I could see it being so pretty in game !
I’m so pleased we can do townhouses now!! Now if there was just a feature to be able to make live-in stores and cafes all my sims building dreams would come true!
Okay, so I’m imagining an old lesbian couple owns the bookstore. A young single woman owns the flower shop. And another old Italian(idk why Italian it’s just what feels right) couple owns the cafe.
I absolutely love this, especially the flower shop. It brought me back to the Sims 2 when I would always build my home lot with a flower shop at the back of the property and sell arrangements. The Open for Business EP allowed a business on a residential lot. It was the best.
I love the fastforward saving and changing to manage worlds lmao it's so fast like you're frantically running against the clock to finish this build 16:06
You could zone this as Residential Rental to make the flats liveable, hire a Barista (100 simoleons) or use Auto Employees/Live in Café Lot Trait mods for functional Café and Ravasheen's retail mod to set things for sale in the shops, assigning ownership to the appropriate households. Assuming those mods are updated for the new lot type.
There was a book store a couple of doors up from where I used to work. They had three cats that would just chill out in shop all day, they had some shelves in the window and the bottom shelf was empty with some blankets and the big ginger cat would sit in the sun in the window all day. I loved that shop.
Simsie never fails to impress me with her building abilities! This build is so good! I love the flower shop so much and the apartment above the bookstore!
i think cars could work if the sims got into the car, then the car would start, then loading screen, then travel menu.. and like for rabbithole stuff, instead of walking off the lot and disappearing, the sims could get into the car and disappear from there ?
Every time i think of a flower shop, I think of the one across the street from my college dorm, where the owners also rescue animals, so the shop is where their cats and many parrots live and get loved on by the college students. So to me a flower shop without cats (and birds, but we need to wait for My Second Pet Stuff for parrots, I guess) doesn't even compute. I miss Rosie, Posey, Peaches, and Cream. (And Buddy the cockatoo)
my afvourite is the flower shop hehe it also ahs teh nicest apartment cuz i loved the multi-use room with kictehn,dinner and living room! lovee teh idea of the library cat and the outdoor seating for teh acfe looks so cute!
I haven’t even finished watching yet and you went off on this build. This is so cute, I love the flower shop! All of them were so beautiful it’s hard to pick a favorite ❤❤❤
I love those apartments! KAYLA I have a challenge for you. 280 square foot tiny home just a rectangle (no bump outs, only one level) theres a high bed with storage underneath. There needs to be a door (obviously) 5 windows, wood burning stove, tiny kitchen, tiny bathroom! Ppssst it's actually what I live in.
This video gave me a build idea for my artist sim and his chef husband. I've been wanting a bigger studio for the artist to teach classes (thru clubs) and work on his masterpiece collection for my long-term museum/ collection projects. His husband can have a restaurant next to the gallery while they live above it. Whenever I get Chef Hustle, the restaurant will be functional to play as the owner or host events.
9:51 that is exactly what happened in the world in the1950's (kinda more in the U.S.) unfortunately... cuties weren't built for cars but people adjusted it for noisy polluting ineffective cars😭 Europe is doing better now by increasing walkability in most cities just wanted to say this!🥲 Beautiful build tho i absolutely LOVE the concept and the flower shop os my fav too💯😍
You could make apartments on the top as multi residential, have the bottom "stores" as communal areas and just put a coffee machine in the cafe, and maybe have the plant store as a little indoor garden or a gym or something.
In my excitement for the new pack I built a HUGE mid century modern apartment building on this exact lot with three family-sized units. I was even able to include a gym and an indoor pool! I'm so excited to be able to play in it for real!
When For Rent comes, we can transform the Plant Shop into a community garden with Fruit Trees behind and transform the Coffee Shop into a community restaurant? Maybe with a grill and the pizza oven. Beautiful
On the topic of the boba shop, I took my sim there recently and literally the entire time all of the npc Sims were buying drinks and then not drinking them. They would just set them down on a table or the floor when they ran out of table space. My sim drank a couple of the free ground bobas, but by the time I left the room was running out of floor space.
The cars could be like the boats in c&d! You could click on it and it says like „repair,clean & drive to“ and if you click it the sims get in and it drives for like 2 seconds forward and takes you into a loading screen!
My idea of how cars can work in the sims 4: the car game pack or expansion pack would have to be centered around car racing. That would give a lot of gameplay with racing/repairing/upgrading cars and getting licenses, and a specific world where you can freely drive around each neighborhood; new lot types could be a car driving school (could be a rabbit hole) and a car racing track. The base game features would be that you could place down specific roads to drive around your own lot/a community lot, and these roads could be the same ones used to build car racing tracks in the pack, and be able to repair/upgrade the car there, be able to put the car in your inventory if you're going to a community lot, like a car driving school. If that was implemented, nothing would need to change in the structure of the worlds we already have, and everything would be lot-specific in base game but still add some extra features.
i feel like the cars could be like where the sims go before the loading screen. and the teaching your teen to drive would look a lot like when your sim goes to work and they just dissipate. it's just like an out of view skill builder, i guess ? idk if I'm making sense 😭😭😭 but like the car purchasing, story progression, and the functional garage door would be the main things.
11:15 Cars could work if they worked like the travel option on bikes. The car is an immobile object that sits on the street or on the lot or something, you click on it to travel, and there is a “sim gets in the car” animation. There could be some quick-drive options to go to a random lot time (drive to park, drive to lounge, drive to bar), “carpool with…” to pick up other sims and travel together, maybe having the car adds to your bills a tad, things like that. They could add little driveways or driveway items to whichever lots it fits, and then Ta-da!, realish cars?
We should've gotten multifunctional Retail lots when HSY came out. They introduced the Thrift and Boba Tea lot. They should've allowed us to have any 2 things together like a book store and Cafe.... or something like that. Esp considering you can't even separate the thrift/Boba lot. You have to have both together
seeing the finished thing i made up this little story in my head where the bookstore owner is a very grumpy black cat person and the flower shop owner is a sunshine orange cat person and the cats befriend each other and then their owners fall in love and then there’s the cafe that is owned by an old couple that root for them both and now i really want this story to happen
I would like a car-centric expansion pack so much even if all of the previous worlds can't work with this feature! Imagine a Monaco-inspired world with a holiday event that's basically a race??
I love thinking about possible sims updates and one that I think could happen is being able to select a room and set it as a certain lot type (restaurant, residential, retail, etc.) It prob won’t happen but a girl can dream 😢
i totally agree with the cars thing! i would also like to teach my sims how to drive and have that habbit hole with the pop ups, and if you get it wrong you fail the test.. it would be nice
I wish we could just right click on doors on community lots to lock them for everyone, everyone but specific sim and everyone except household. Huge game changer because that would make lots almost function like motels and hotels. Without cheats, maybe you can buy keys for specific doors on community lots to make it feel more realistic.
With the mod "Live in Business," by LittleMsSam, you CAN have a retail shop on a residential lot. Also, if you zone it as "retail" and have a Sim buy it, set the items "for sale" and then sell the business, the retail shop continues to re-stock.
How cars could work in the sims 4 could be like Sims Busting Out or even the console version of the Sims 3. Your son doesn't actually drive around. The car is placed on the road or whatever, the sims get in and boom loading screen. Then you're at the next lot.
i really hope multi propose lots come out so we can have stuff that happens in real life, not just only like texas where everything is huge and seperate lol!
I believe that transports could be added in some future, maybe not car that the sims can drive but taxis and buses totally. Imagine having the option to call a taxi and it arriving at your door or taking the bus and your sim having to walk to the bus stop. Of course in world like henford on bagley or sulani the option of taxi wouldnt be available but taking the bus yes, it would add some realisim to the game without having to change a lot of things. Does anyone else would love this or just me? I really want buses and of course THE SCHOOL BUS, its something simple but cute.
For sims 5 I’d like an open world where your sims would drive around like on sims 3 and an airport where you go to fly to other worlds, I don’t even need an airplane, just an airport and then a loading screen
I'd love to see you make a retirement center once For Rent comes out. I collect urns of all the townies (organically, I let them live life) and it'd be so nice to keep track of my elders by just moving them into one big building.
One of my favorite bookshops growing up used to have a store cat named Catsby. He has since passed on but I like to think he's been reborn into the bookshop cat of this build.
i dunno a garage pack/kit would go crazy being mechanic themed: new skill action, new career, garage decor, and even new cas items. i mean we have cops and doctors but we don’t actually have open hospitals or criminals, the hopes for driving really should be saved for sims 5
I want these shops in my neighbourhood. I’d buy a bunch of books, a bouquet of fresh flowers, and then head to the cafe to read with a coffee and a pastry 💜
Yes, I like the flowershop, mostly because its something I considered doing in Chestnut Ridge for my G8 1st cousin. He lived with G8 for quite awhile and was in the gardening career. I never got around to placing and pretending to have G8 visit him at work after he moved out, but what you built today would have been perfect.
I just had an idea: by default all lots are flat, so cars can be certainly functional on one lot (if you don't change the terrain. So if the lot is not connected to the road,it's fine it just vanishes and you see a loading screen, as usual

Hopefully the sims team makes it possible for multi purpose lots to happen because they already have the tools in the pack they are about to release it would be nice for us to be able to zone rooms in the lot for the public and for personal use just like you can zone the different apartments for each tenant in the same lot
I would love that. I already fake live on retail lots and I would love to be able to do it for real.
Honestly if the sims don’t give us this, this seems like it could be moddable now that we will soon have a base for it
LittleMsSam has an Auto Employees mod that works as a lot trait and is activated by clicking on doors/arches/gates. I'm curious to see how it plays with the new lot type coming with this pack.

Make cars rabbit holes (sim will get in car and drive for a short length before both disappear; can program it to work on specific lots)
You can’t actually travel with your sim, but your sim can go to work, go to skill classes, or go to new special activities (the movies, a friend’s house, etc)
Then, allow sims to park their car in their home lot. Have it be tied to an item, like a parking space; you can even give it swatches so it can have a paint outline, a chalk drawing, be invisible, etc.
Finally, add two new skills: driving and car repair.
Sims can practice driving by going to a driving class, reading a book, getting driving practice from an adult (rabbit hole). You can even have a sim practice parking/parallel parking!
For car repair, your sim can take a skill class, read a book, watch a tutorial, or fix up a junker. This can also come with a new mechanic career!
as far as garage doors go, i think a garage band stuff pack (since apparently theyre back now) would be awesome for that! it could come with a drum kit and maybe some band mechanics that work a bit like the karaoke machines
I love this idea! I just think that the drama of "garage pack with no cars" would be so big zzzz
Omg the grunge potential is awesome. Also maybe there could be a broken car you could work on to get your sims handiness up? ThT way we have a car but its still not functional.

I love the idea that the cat is just around all of the buildings. Like, a store cat. A friend has a cat that wanders between the neighbors' homes sometimes, but they all know who she actually belongs to and I think make sure she gets home. Feels kind of accurate for this type of side-by-side build.
Once For Rent comes out, we're one step closer to multi-purpose lots!
I absolutely ADORE this build!! Totally nailed the vibes- definitely one of my favorite builds!
For some reason I imagine all the owners to be best friends and hang out in eachother’s stores and stuff-
Would love to see you do this with the Recriation Center lot type, meaning having it looking like it looks like different shops and it would function!
Good idea, with this lot type you could create a gym attached to an art center/kids space.
The resedent cat reminds me of that one time i was at a second-hand book store with my dog, i was very suprised they even allowed him in, but within seconds all the workers were and giving him pets. I love the idea of the book store being more of a libarery where you can buy second-hand books, but you can also just hang out there and read a book with the store owner's cat in your lap, it sound like a place i would hang out at a lot when i was younger
Im so excited for the new pack, see me in a week or two spending 20 hours on the sims 💀💀
I think my final Sims 4 dream would be multi use lots like this where you could have it be multiple stores or multi store plus multi apartment above. I feel like that's one of the last plausible major updates. Being able to have multiple lot types on the same lot would be amazing and I feel like we finally have all of the building blocks for it
The cafe house is SO BEAUTIFUL. I don't recognize those blue details, you might as well have created them specifically for this build haha. But seriously it looks lovely and so realistic, it really feels like a British ground floor shop below apartments
I LOOOOVE the flower shop!!! It's so beautiful 😍 The entire middle building is just perfection 🥰
22:45 so, I’m uniquely qualified to talk about this. I was a foster kid& my foster parents owned a bookstore (with a cafe across the st😂) and we had a bookstore cat! His name was mango. We didn’t live above the store (it wasn’t liveable…) but mango did live IN the store. So, yes, it is normal to have the litter box in the bathroom everyone uses. We only had 1 bathroom& it was never messed with.
I spent my afternoons laying in between shelves reading or in the front window reading… honestly, I’d give anything for someone to shake me awake and I find that I had fallen asleep reading between the shelves and it was time to go home. Well, that got a little dark.
i really like an idea of making this building as townhouse after the new update with stores as a public places, because sims can use them as a skill building areas (flower table for example) and library for reading books. i definately will try this after update!!
I spent a couple days on my shell! I’m so proud of it, I often get stumped on building the outside of my building but this really helped me. I did a warehouse conversion that’s occulty…
Thinking about cars in the sims… I think a possible way for them to add them would be almost a car racing expansion pack - so racecars and even normal/vintage cars for your sims to race around a track. There could also be something like you mentioned fixing broken cars and garage doors obviously, but I agree they probably wouldn’t add them for roads
BUILD-CHALLENGE IDEA: you can only use ONE item from each pack, kit so on. You can repeat that item (example: placing four of the same chair) but you can’t use two different chairs from the same pack or one bed and one counter from same pack
YES! This is so good😍
i LOVE the flower store! it’s so realistic with the seeds and all 🫶🏻
Flower Store apartment is the best. Just that the door in the skinny hallway is a literal killer. It opens up towards the stairs. Imagine walking up that stairway, someone opens the door, you get spooked and take a step back, bam, now you ded xD
there is a mod that you can live in a business, so I wonder if one day sm will be able to make multiple-purpose-like lots 🤔
i know this build was a while ago, and this isnt a necessary comment, but i thought up little lives for the sims who live here!
- in the bookstore, i was thinking that it's a young guy living alone, he got the store from his dad, he still has the family cat, and although his gf stays over, she doesnt live with him
- for the florist, i think its a super cute, pastel girl who has a punk rock gf who shes teaching to arrange flowers. again, they dont live together, theyre waiting for a bigger place
-and lastly, for the cafe, i thought it was a husband and wife, possibly expecting, and the husband does all the coffee and customers, while the wife handles business. the desk in the bedroom is for him, to do normal people computer things on, whereas the downstairs office space is for her to do her business things with
i know everyone including simsie will have their own thoughts on who lives here, but i just thought id share my idea
They could make a Stuff Pack based on cars. From what I’ve seen with every Sruff Pack, they add a few new animations but mostly reused ones, but I have a few ideas. Sims will maybe not actually drive around, but it would just be a way for you to travel to other lots, like with a phone. Would be cool if you could place cars in your inventory and place them wherever you want and have names for them, like with bikes. Also that you can turn on the lights on the car, and start the car. If two sims sit in the car they could talk to each other and it also could be a romantic spot similar to when they sit on a bench but in the backseat. The talk interactions may require first person camera mode to actually be able to click on the sims. Other interactions could be accessed by clicking on the car. Gameplay cars wouldn’t have to replace the debug cars. Would also be nice if teens could take driver’s license and also when sims go to work and other things, the car vanishes into a rabbit hole with the sim. When teens learn to drive they pay for driving lessons. Maybe after 3-5 lessons they’ll get to the driving test, and make it a rabbit hole experience instead of a skill. Pop up messages could be fun, where things could either go bad, great or neutral at random. An embarrassed moodlet for failure and confident for success. For build/buy it could be mostly garage themed but also have a few community items like a decorative gas station, signs and parking spots. Maybe an opportunity for a drive in cinema. Stuff Packs usually have a few gameplay features but not enough to make them a Game Pack, which is totally ok imo. If cars came as a kit it would be sad as kits are mostly a small set of decorative items and it would probably require cars being a half assed base game feature. I think cars as a Stuff Pack would offer just as much gameplay as any other Stuff Pack, so why not? 🤷🏼♀️ I hope they’ll take it into consideration. I think dispite negative talk, which is inevitable at this point, people would probably buy the pack anyway.
I agree with the car thing! Cars made sense in Sims 2 because you had to call a taxi to get a community lot, so driving your own car did save time, but with Sims 4, you've been able to walk to community lots from the base game. I guess it would look cool, but let's be real, the sims are just going to pull out of their driveway, and then have a loading screen into the lot. I can't see them taking the time to program cars that drive along the world's roads at this point in the game's lifespan.
Do you think it might be possible for these speed builds that run a little long to be split into two videos so we could still see the rest of the furnishing? I totally get it if not, though!
ahh these are so cool! honestly the bookshop/apartment setup is my (unachievable, unfortunately) dream! especially with the kitty furniture omg
Hear me out, garage band kit. You can create bands, play drums, sing, all as a group. Comes with garage decor, boxes and fixer up car. The car needs handiness skill a d can be used to teach to drive (a rabbit hole). They could get moodlets and memories from it.
Later an antique car kit where you fix up cars and sell them. Something like that
Ok hear me out.... they could be residential and you can have a type of shop or store if you use the lower levels and the hch kit you can sell pizza waffles etc. With the outdoor adventure pack I think they have that sellers table where you can sell other stuff....idk I think that could work.
Yeah, and if you have seasons, you could use the flower arrangement table and sell the arrangements on the selling table from either Jungle Adventure or City Living!
I came to say the same thing. I wonder if those selling tables could work on residential rentals. Eco Lifestyle also has those tables, City Living has the painting-selling thing, that could work, too.
The color scheme of the cafe has had my heart since you built it on stream. Not sure which of the apartments is my favorite though.
a fun realistic building thing to try in flower shops is adding a walk in cooler with flowers ! I’m a florist and the walk in cooler is such a magical part of the store for ppl and I could see it being so pretty in game !
I’m so pleased we can do townhouses now!! Now if there was just a feature to be able to make live-in stores and cafes all my sims building dreams would come true!
Okay, so I’m imagining an old lesbian couple owns the bookstore. A young single woman owns the flower shop. And another old Italian(idk why Italian it’s just what feels right) couple owns the cafe.
I absolutely love this, especially the flower shop. It brought me back to the Sims 2 when I would always build my home lot with a flower shop at the back of the property and sell arrangements. The Open for Business EP allowed a business on a residential lot. It was the best.
Love your videos, can’t wait for the new pack content!
i’ve never been early on a simsie upload I’m honored
Your builds have been SO good recently. Obviously, I've been a fan for a while, but you've noticably improved / found your groove. I'm loving it!
I love the fastforward saving and changing to manage worlds lmao it's so fast like you're frantically running against the clock to finish this build 16:06
You could zone this as Residential Rental to make the flats liveable, hire a Barista (100 simoleons) or use Auto Employees/Live in Café Lot Trait mods for functional Café and Ravasheen's retail mod to set things for sale in the shops, assigning ownership to the appropriate households. Assuming those mods are updated for the new lot type.
The horse sign outside cafe reminds me of my fav coffee brand, Kicking Horse, so it works for me
That building is stunning!! The flower shop is looking amazing! Love all the details 💕
There was a book store a couple of doors up from where I used to work. They had three cats that would just chill out in shop all day, they had some shelves in the window and the bottom shelf was empty with some blankets and the big ginger cat would sit in the sun in the window all day. I loved that shop.
Simsie never fails to impress me with her building abilities! This build is so good! I love the flower shop so much and the apartment above the bookstore!
I like the bookshop best and the apartment for the cafe! I love the color scheme!! Such a cool idea!
i think cars could work if the sims got into the car, then the car would start, then loading screen, then travel menu..
and like for rabbithole stuff, instead of walking off the lot and disappearing, the sims could get into the car and disappear from there ?
Every time i think of a flower shop, I think of the one across the street from my college dorm, where the owners also rescue animals, so the shop is where their cats and many parrots live and get loved on by the college students. So to me a flower shop without cats (and birds, but we need to wait for My Second Pet Stuff for parrots, I guess) doesn't even compute. I miss Rosie, Posey, Peaches, and Cream. (And Buddy the cockatoo)
I really like the cafe, the blue and the aesthetic looks amazing! But the flowershop and the bookshop look great as well.
my afvourite is the flower shop hehe it also ahs teh nicest apartment cuz i loved the multi-use room with kictehn,dinner and living room! lovee teh idea of the library cat and the outdoor seating for teh acfe looks so cute!
Yea, being able to run a business from your home (There are mods that let you) as a base game or even expansion feature would be so nice.
I haven’t even finished watching yet and you went off on this build. This is so cute, I love the flower shop! All of them were so beautiful it’s hard to pick a favorite ❤❤❤
I love those apartments!
KAYLA I have a challenge for you. 280 square foot tiny home just a rectangle (no bump outs, only one level) theres a high bed with storage underneath. There needs to be a door (obviously) 5 windows, wood burning stove, tiny kitchen, tiny bathroom! Ppssst it's actually what I live in.
This video gave me a build idea for my artist sim and his chef husband. I've been wanting a bigger studio for the artist to teach classes (thru clubs) and work on his masterpiece collection for my long-term museum/ collection projects. His husband can have a restaurant next to the gallery while they live above it. Whenever I get Chef Hustle, the restaurant will be functional to play as the owner or host events.
kayla please a hour video would be *chefs kiss*
9:51 that is exactly what happened in the world in the1950's (kinda more in the U.S.) unfortunately... cuties weren't built for cars but people adjusted it for noisy polluting ineffective cars😭
Europe is doing better now by increasing walkability in most cities just wanted to say this!🥲
Beautiful build tho i absolutely LOVE the concept and the flower shop os my fav too💯😍
You could make apartments on the top as multi residential, have the bottom "stores" as communal areas and just put a coffee machine in the cafe, and maybe have the plant store as a little indoor garden or a gym or something.
This is one of my favorite builds you've ever done! It's seriously so cute!!
In my excitement for the new pack I built a HUGE mid century modern apartment building on this exact lot with three family-sized units. I was even able to include a gym and an indoor pool! I'm so excited to be able to play in it for real!
When For Rent comes, we can transform the Plant Shop into a community garden with Fruit Trees behind and transform the Coffee Shop into a community restaurant? Maybe with a grill and the pizza oven. Beautiful
Can’t wait for your builds with the new pack ❤ thanks for always making my day better. The flower shop and apartment are so cute 😊
On the topic of the boba shop, I took my sim there recently and literally the entire time all of the npc Sims were buying drinks and then not drinking them. They would just set them down on a table or the floor when they ran out of table space. My sim drank a couple of the free ground bobas, but by the time I left the room was running out of floor space.
The cars could be like the boats in c&d! You could click on it and it says like „repair,clean & drive to“ and if you click it the sims get in and it drives for like 2 seconds forward and takes you into a loading screen!
Watched this on stream, downloaded the lot to try for myself, and watching it again on RUclips, because Kayla is just AWESOME!
My idea of how cars can work in the sims 4: the car game pack or expansion pack would have to be centered around car racing. That would give a lot of gameplay with racing/repairing/upgrading cars and getting licenses, and a specific world where you can freely drive around each neighborhood; new lot types could be a car driving school (could be a rabbit hole) and a car racing track. The base game features would be that you could place down specific roads to drive around your own lot/a community lot, and these roads could be the same ones used to build car racing tracks in the pack, and be able to repair/upgrade the car there, be able to put the car in your inventory if you're going to a community lot, like a car driving school. If that was implemented, nothing would need to change in the structure of the worlds we already have, and everything would be lot-specific in base game but still add some extra features.
i feel like the cars could be like where the sims go before the loading screen. and the teaching your teen to drive would look a lot like when your sim goes to work and they just dissipate. it's just like an out of view skill builder, i guess ? idk if I'm making sense 😭😭😭 but like the car purchasing, story progression, and the functional garage door would be the main things.
11:15 Cars could work if they worked like the travel option on bikes. The car is an immobile object that sits on the street or on the lot or something, you click on it to travel, and there is a “sim gets in the car” animation. There could be some quick-drive options to go to a random lot time (drive to park, drive to lounge, drive to bar), “carpool with…” to pick up other sims and travel together, maybe having the car adds to your bills a tad, things like that. They could add little driveways or driveway items to whichever lots it fits, and then Ta-da!, realish cars?
about the cars thing you talked about, it got me thinking how the car fixing thing you mentioned could possibly be tied to a new skill !
i NEEEEEED a hour long video, i always watch you to go to bed and that would be so amazing
Watching this when it’s a stream build is always such a treat cause I never get to watch the full stream!!
We should've gotten multifunctional Retail lots when HSY came out. They introduced the Thrift and Boba Tea lot. They should've allowed us to have any 2 things together like a book store and Cafe.... or something like that. Esp considering you can't even separate the thrift/Boba lot. You have to have both together
seeing the finished thing i made up this little story in my head where the bookstore owner is a very grumpy black cat person and the flower shop owner is a sunshine orange cat person and the cats befriend each other and then their owners fall in love and then there’s the cafe that is owned by an old couple that root for them both and now i really want this story to happen
I would like a car-centric expansion pack so much even if all of the previous worlds can't work with this feature! Imagine a Monaco-inspired world with a holiday event that's basically a race??
i would have loved to see the upper buildings too. Maybe you can make 2 parts next time? :)
I love thinking about possible sims updates and one that I think could happen is being able to select a room and set it as a certain lot type (restaurant, residential, retail, etc.) It prob won’t happen but a girl can dream 😢
This might be one of my favourite builds of yours ever!
i totally agree with the cars thing! i would also like to teach my sims how to drive and have that habbit hole with the pop ups, and if you get it wrong you fail the test.. it would be nice
I wish we could just right click on doors on community lots to lock them for everyone, everyone but specific sim and everyone except household. Huge game changer because that would make lots almost function like motels and hotels. Without cheats, maybe you can buy keys for specific doors on community lots to make it feel more realistic.
I really wish multi-purpose lots will come true in the future 😭 it's my most wished for feature and I will wait patiently until it happens 🤞
This is one of my favourite builds of yours. Love all the different rooms
With the mod "Live in Business," by LittleMsSam, you CAN have a retail shop on a residential lot.
Also, if you zone it as "retail" and have a Sim buy it, set the items "for sale" and then sell the business, the retail shop continues to re-stock.
How cars could work in the sims 4 could be like Sims Busting Out or even the console version of the Sims 3. Your son doesn't actually drive around. The car is placed on the road or whatever, the sims get in and boom loading screen. Then you're at the next lot.
You have been making a lot of cat houses recently! I wanna see you make a dog house!!
Sometimes I have anxiety early in the morning and your videos help me calm down thank you ❤
No comments as of yet. Someone say something
Something

i really hope multi propose lots come out so we can have stuff that happens in real life, not just only like texas where everything is huge and seperate lol!
I believe that transports could be added in some future, maybe not car that the sims can drive but taxis and buses totally. Imagine having the option to call a taxi and it arriving at your door or taking the bus and your sim having to walk to the bus stop. Of course in world like henford on bagley or sulani the option of taxi wouldnt be available but taking the bus yes, it would add some realisim to the game without having to change a lot of things.
Does anyone else would love this or just me? I really want buses and of course THE SCHOOL BUS, its something simple but cute.
For sims 5 I’d like an open world where your sims would drive around like on sims 3 and an airport where you go to fly to other worlds, I don’t even need an airplane, just an airport and then a loading screen
I'd love to see you make a retirement center once For Rent comes out. I collect urns of all the townies (organically, I let them live life) and it'd be so nice to keep track of my elders by just moving them into one big building.
Adorable. I love this build.
One of my favorite bookshops growing up used to have a store cat named Catsby. He has since passed on but I like to think he's been reborn into the bookshop cat of this build.
i dunno a garage pack/kit would go crazy being mechanic themed: new skill action, new career, garage decor, and even new cas items. i mean we have cops and doctors but we don’t actually have open hospitals or criminals, the hopes for driving really should be saved for sims 5
I want these shops in my neighbourhood. I’d buy a bunch of books, a bouquet of fresh flowers, and then head to the cafe to read with a coffee and a pastry 💜
I miss the rabbit hole going to work cars and the school bus! Love your builds and your channel ☺️
Yes, I like the flowershop, mostly because its something I considered doing in Chestnut Ridge for my G8 1st cousin. He lived with G8 for quite awhile and was in the gardening career. I never got around to placing and pretending to have G8 visit him at work after he moved out, but what you built today would have been perfect.
The stair railing glitch!!! Started happening to me recently, I feel you. (Also, this build is gorgeous)
I just had an idea: by default all lots are flat, so cars can be certainly functional on one lot (if you don't change the terrain. So if the lot is not connected to the road,it's fine it just vanishes and you see a loading screen, as usual
I like the idea of public transport portals in the sims. Just like getting on a bus, school bus style. Or a tram.
