As a Californian, so much of this pack has already made me so nostalgic for my childhood in and around San Francisco, but those golden flowers from debug made me audibly gasp. That’s our state flower!!! They’re Golden Poppies!!! Little details like this just make me so so happy
for real!! I'm a So Cal native and seeing our flower brought me so much joy. Now I can create landscapes and gardens that have a more personal and relatable touch :)
@@AshAirheart1995 I’m still getting used to being on Pacific Time myself and all of my coworkers from corporate are so jealous that I’m done with with at 3pm. It’s really the good life over here.
Same! I’m from Sacramento but went to college in SF and lived there for 6-7 years, worked at Sbux at the wharf and I honestly feel like they nailed it. I know people are disappointed that a lot of the water and lots aren’t usable. But honestly that’s kinda how sf is at the wharf especially lol. The nostalgia is real.
@@nempne it really is. The only thing that sucks is when you need to contact a corporation or something and you call after 3 but can’t reach them because they are closed. I always forget that there are time zones lmao
Biggest disappointment? No matching dishwasher for the kitchen appliances. I will never understand why we only have three, after all these years (plus one reward one?)! Most excited about the shower/tub combo, and the piano, as I own an upright piano irl, and love it so much. Also, that really small, low window looks like it may work as a transom window over the top of doors or archways? It might be a good way to fill up the wall when building with medium wall height. I can't wait to try that out. Thanks for the overview!
omg thank you so much for this video! i think a 60’s-70’s inspired one story house would look incredible with these items, especially the sidings and tiles. i’d love to see a house with a conversation pit, i’ve never seen that in the sims but i think that would be cool (especially with the sectional couch from dream home decorator).
definitely good for a college campus or library. I thought that it also looks like something they might have in a modern corporate office, but idk if anyone is building those 🤷♀️
The weird tall chair is for privacy, they are pretty common in universities, I loved them for studying. Weird that they are coming with this and not DU, but maybe they are meant for the rec center?
This pack is so ideal for dorks like me who almost exclusively build community lots. I saw that we get another 20x40 lot which is super weird and challenging-I’d love to see what you would do with it, I love your community lot builds.
I'm SOOOOO Happy that we're FINALLY getting an Upright Piano! I've been wanting one for SOOOO FUCKING LONG XO I love having my sims live in Tiny homes, and those big-ol' Grand Pianos are usually a sign of the end of Micro-Home living when you're in the Musical career o3o I pre-ordered this cuz I just want it so bad. Yes, I know that Pre-Order is bad, but my memory is trash, so I just bought it when I saw it. No need to remember release dates anymore =D
The big unusual looking chair reminds me of chairs we had in our libraries when I was in college. It gives you a sense of privacy when studying in a somewhat open environment. Honestly I love them. Slink back in one with a hoodie on and catch a nap. Granted ours didn’t look like, but I got what the sims team was going for. Makes sense with the new community lot. We also had comfy chairs with the desk/tray attached that swung back and forth to let you in and out that you could study in. Be neat to see something like that in the game as well.
This video reminds me of how you always use the beloved douple cuttingboard, but maybe not as much as some "ugly" or "unconventional" items/flooring/wallpaper. I would really want you to see a little challenge build where you'd use at least 5 of your least favourite/unused items and make it a beautiful build! I love your content and it really cheers me up everyday 😊 Keep up the great work 💕
Ohhh I am *super* excited about the wooden toddler potty and the toy box; toddlers have long been the bane of my historic/fantasy/off-grid builds because so much of their furniture is plasticy and doesn't suit a handmade style... also Very into the upright piano (I've had a modded one in my game for so long but always forget to use it) and a new style of bike
The blue 'glass' in the wood coffee tables is actually more common than any kind of clear as it is resin and is meant to represent water and wood (sometimes they look like ocean and beach). It's very, very common to see this sort of artisan piece in my rural part of the world. Chopping boards, dining tables etc wood resin furniture.
I always have a pool in my worlds that I take my families to for outings, where I have an adult pool, a smaller "kids pool", a playground, lots of towels, etc and I just can't wait to renovate it with the new splash items
I'm so excited for the update bit also this Pack! I told myself I wasn't going to buy the pack for a while but now I really want it after seeing all the objects! I love the beds sm 😭❤️
i know right!!! I told myself i was going to wait for the inevitable sale afterward so that I didn't pay full price but also like, some of these items are SO pretty I think it's worth paying full price for it!! Just a little worried about the bugs and such that come with a new big expansion pack (like high school years lol)
@Madison Wolf I think the only packs I got full price were highschook years and maybe one other one otherwise I wait till they go on sale, but I'm obsessed lol
The glass on the door reminds me of my grandmother upstairs door leading out onto a deck i can remember always being up there and seeing that glassware on the door and it was so pretty 😍 I am always drawn to that because of her rip meme ❤
Thank you! I am so glad you posted this as your 1st video. I was explicitly told by SimGuruNova that they purposefully did not do a Build Overview in the Livestream because it would take too long and the "GameChangers" were expected to do this anyways so they didn't. I'm honestly furious that I was very bluntly told to go find all the Creator Network Simtubers & basically pester them into posting this type video so I could decide if I want to buy the pack or not. Thank you for posting this so quickly.
I love the new kids bed. As kids my sister and I always had fun cutesy bedding with animals or rainbows or dragons and I love all the more modern bedding we already have, but this instantly makes me think of younger kids and it's so cute. The beds are one of my fave build items
Thank you for showing it all! Cant wait to use it! The cat picture in the set of picture frames is an actual painting! It's called "Le Chat Noir" and very famous! I had it as a poster! Lovely! Wish it was a stand alone painting..
thank you for the detailed video! some of the modern stuff feels disjointed to the more traditional style stuff to me. I know craftsman style tends to be more trendy now with "modern farmhouse" type stuff, but the super modern stuff clashes to me. and I can't believe they didn't include new counters and cabinets. 😭 considering the new shower/tub combo, appliances, and sink, this would have been a great opportunity for more higher end counter types for modern farmhouse style kitchens. 😭😭😭
Horse/Unicorn and Fairy symbolizm is heavy in this pack. I was a bit skeptical but then i saw the literal bear with fairy wings ontop of the unicorn and i was like "okay yeah they're definitely coming in a pack together"
I saw the board game stack and knew instantly I will be getting this pack. I will fit the board game stack on all my homes I build. So excited for this pack. Need the changing tables too.
The metal you mentioned looks like a container home texture. Is actually a standing seam metal roof texture for roofs I think not walls. It looks really good with craftsman style homes. Can't wait to see your builds with this ep. The pirate bear statue/bear unicorn/rocket ship, I think are decor items for the tree fort or just to use to free build kid forts of your own design.
I love your Channel sooo much, I think i'm watching you since like idk over 1 year..You're the youtuber i've watched the most, regular AND with the most joy!!! LYSM!!!😍❣❣ Oh and maybe you can build a large, base game house for a Mother, her sister and their kids!! Mabye like 2 infants, 1 baby or so !! Would love to see smth like this!! ❤❤
Yessss! Thank you so much for this video! I've been so excited to see and use all the new items ever since the trailer dropped! I always appreciate your in-depth looks at the build/buy items for each new pack
I finally understand why they chose to model this world off of San Francisco. San Fran has a TON of art deco/mixed architectural influences. I wasn't initially sold on the world itself, but I LOVE the variety we got! It's going to be super versatile. I especially love that the more modern objects would be useful for both hyper modern and midcentury modern builds. The BB IS SO GOOD. I'm currently building out San Myshuno, and I will definitely be using this pack for my historical apartments! Edit: FINALLY! ANOTHER SHOWER/TUB I've been wanting a new one for ages, but knew it wasn't a priority!
Well, I had this pack on my wishlist but having just finished this video the importance of me getting it has gone up quite a bit. I haven't even looked at CAS for it yet but the build/buy seems fantastic! Thanks for sharing your time with us!
At first I wasn’t convinced with news of it being more craftsman style build and buy but I’m liking it completely different than the seasons build and buy. More detailed and cozy looking.
I love the build buy objects so much I literally cannot wait for Thursday now. However, the monstera and snake plant being grouped together and not individual makes me want to sob.
I think this might be the first xpac I will be getting on release day!! The tall box chair, I could see it in an office rental space. Like those places where you can rent a desk or office room for the day.
The craftsman style is one of my top 2 faves and they have done a great job with the style. Love it! Can’t wait to play this weekend!!❤❤❤ I love watching your videos about these. It’s always helpful!! The other day I was building thinking I needed more greens and here they are! ❤😂❤
So I could have missed it, but I will cry if we don't get that beautiful stone wall texture as a foundation/platform trim. Also sad about not getting new cabinets but I'm just in love with this pack!!! 😍😍😍
Those weird grasses are fiddlehead ferns! They grow in the shade in clusters like that and are very normal in the part of the country the pack is inspired by.
A good dark hunter green on the swatches, exterior doors, siding, tiles, etc. would have been nice. They do pretty blues, but sorely lacking in good greens. 39:21 "some kind of weird grass" are Ostrich ferns aka fiddlehead ferns and are good to eat.
I love the items, wish there were more wall/floor options. Like a matching plain wall got the half paint/tile wall. I'm sure cc creators will come through
I'm currently doing my best to not pick it up before it's out. I want to at least see some gameplay before I get it, but ... I'm loving what I'm seeing.
Low key happy EA waited for early access for couple days before release vs 1-2 weeks before release. I feel like when they do it so early, by time release happens, we’ve already binged watched all the videos so already know everything, so once we get it, the excitement dies 😂 plus forget about the build/buy. These windows and doors are hands down my favourite they have ever made. I can’t wait for modders to make an add on for these windows and doors. I love the craftsman build stuff. It’s my fave type of house irl, and frankly it’s been impossible to recreate craftsman style I see where I live. Now I can ❤ usually the build stuff is way too stylized and the swatches are a nightmare for mixing and matching, I love the simplicity of the build items. Not gonna lie, I’m not mad at how ridiculous and random buy mode stuff is… it’s just all these random pieces that can be used with so many other things from different packs, so long as the swatches can be mixed, it’s the main issue with EA wood swatches, they’re always so different in each pack lol, and doing white or black all the time sucks, I hope the wood tones match with other wood swatches . Wait … are we finally getting sims 2 chaos of diapers everywhere if we don’t have garbage to toss them into?? No more spinning in the air animation?!? God I hope so. I miss the chaos of diapers and bottles everywhere while your sims struggle to not die from literal sleep deprivation when you have 2 babies 😂
Maybe the kids sculptures would go well in the tree house? And I believe it was Deli's idea she suggested to the sims to have two different bookshelves so they can be put side by side without having repeating objects!
I'm amazed at how few toys there are for kids. I would have thought that seesaws, little ovens, bake sale tables, dress up chests, hopscotch, kites, toy machines, etc might make a comeback, and that there'd be more new stuff- but I guess not. Really disappointed.
I’m honestly glad I preordered cause I would’ve wanted the pack just for the gameplay alone let alone the build buy! Love the beds and all the build objects. Also I’m gonna be using that sheep stool in every nursery now and nobody can stop me lol
Thanks so much for the build and buy vid Tonya! I've been super excited for all that Growing Together EP has to offer, but I've been dying to see a comprehensive BB overview, which has been lacking up till now. Great job and grats on early access.
I looooove the build buy style of this pack, can't wait to use it! Also, I think those child sculpture items are for decorating the tree house once it's built.
Not EA finally learning to make consistent wood swatches and proper sets of windows and door in this pack and cottage living (and basically nothing else!) What is this, character growth?
I agree the suitcase shelves would be way cuter empty, and the combo plants too! if we complain enough they may actually patch it in just sayin.. and if not.. well CC makers work your magic

Of course! and oooh! i love conversation pits!
I can’t wait to use the huge weird boxy chair! We have similar chairs in my irl uni library- it’s great for a feel of privacy
I could see that! hmm...
definitely good for a college campus or library. I thought that it also looks like something they might have in a modern corporate office, but idk if anyone is building those 🤷♀️
That does go really well with university
Maybe good for a remake of Foxbury Commons
yeap good for a library or other communal study space for a little privacy
They are serving me with the light pink options 😭💕
The weird tall chair is for privacy, they are pretty common in universities, I loved them for studying. Weird that they are coming with this and not DU, but maybe they are meant for the rec center?
They have one of these where I work, they got it for breastfeeding in a public area, it gives you a little privacy.
@@bethbovey7566 I didn't even think of that!

Were there new lot Traits/Challenges? The lil house icon was shining o3o
The thing you thought was a fox is actually a red panda! It's so cute.
I have a feeling I’ll be overusing a lot of this stuff in my builds 😍

I'm gonna get that goat/sheep in black for my goths. It's so cute! Gonna call it Black Phillip.
SO EXCITED FOR THIS, i had my alarms set !!
aww! Hope you enjoy! ❤

I'm gonna go ahead and say that this is the best expansion pack we've had in the Sims 4 since Cottage Living, the Sims team is on fire!
what about high school years. and honestly i am still trying to figure everything out in the game.
I'm so excited for the update bit also this Pack! I told myself I wasn't going to buy the pack for a while but now I really want it after seeing all the objects! I love the beds sm 😭❤️

A comprehensive Built/Buy overview in a vid that's less than an hour. Fantastic!!!! Thank you!
The 1920s vibes!!! Most of the retro furniture is 1920s in overall theme, along with a lot of the 20's craftsman build stuff
I’m sooooo happy you got your stand up piano… Im happy too… looks like the piano that was in my Grandma’s home.❤
I love the new kids bed. As kids my sister and I always had fun cutesy bedding with animals or rainbows or dragons and I love all the more modern bedding we already have, but this instantly makes me think of younger kids and it's so cute. The beds are one of my fave build items

The Kinda Wierd Grass at 39:21 look like Fiddleheads =O It's an edible green irl, gotta cook them, only available in spring.
That tall sunken back box chair would be great for community spaces like library’s, lounges, and night clubs.
Horse/Unicorn and Fairy symbolizm is heavy in this pack. I was a bit skeptical but then i saw the literal bear with fairy wings ontop of the unicorn and i was like "okay yeah they're definitely coming in a pack together"
True uni black and uni white swatches - I can't believe EA actually learned something after 20 years! 🤣
27:53, that blue bird flying through space... my heart. Yes, Meteion, I will be your friend ;-;
Finally we can build a pretty decent Craftsman Home!! OMG excited 😍😍
I saw the board game stack and knew instantly I will be getting this pack. I will fit the board game stack on all my homes I build. So excited for this pack. Need the changing tables too.

Everything looks so cool, but, ladies and gens, the piano. THE PIANO!
I love all the owls! And that debug shelter would be great with the wedding stories arch and walkway for a ceremony.
So I could have missed it, but I will cry if we don't get that beautiful stone wall texture as a foundation/platform trim. Also sad about not getting new cabinets but I'm just in love with this pack!!! 😍😍😍
Those weird grasses are fiddlehead ferns! They grow in the shade in clusters like that and are very normal in the part of the country the pack is inspired by.
Omg the cat picture on the well travelled gallery is from a famous French print-- Chat Noire. My mom has a print of it...also part of a gallery wall.
holy cow this pack is HUGE!!! so excited!
😮 THE SIDING AND WALL PAPERS!!!
Ahhh all these items are amazing! My bungalows and craftsman style homes will finally look complete with that archway!
that painted piano looks like the ones you see on uni campuses and in artsy cafes that invite people to sit and play!
The rocking chair looks exactly like the one in my sons room and one of the cots is so similar so that really excites me haha
Love that!
A good dark hunter green on the swatches, exterior doors, siding, tiles, etc. would have been nice. They do pretty blues, but sorely lacking in good greens. 39:21 "some kind of weird grass" are Ostrich ferns aka fiddlehead ferns and are good to eat.
I love your Chanel, Thank you for turning me into more of a sim fan than before 😊
❤❤
Those rocking chairs are going to be SO CUTE when sims are doing the "give nap" action with their infants. I almost couldn't handle it earlier.
ok just started video ..only at the first 3 doors and i gotta say it’s giving me full house vibes
You know Ravasheen's gonna be making that kids rocket functional 😃
I love the items, wish there were more wall/floor options. Like a matching plain wall got the half paint/tile wall. I'm sure cc creators will come through
Cool video. The 'weird grass' is sprouting ferns btw.
OH MY GWOD WE ARE FINALLY FINALLYYYY GETTING THE PIANO I AM ACTUALLY GONNA USE IT IN EVERY SINGLE BUILD
I'm currently doing my best to not pick it up before it's out. I want to at least see some gameplay before I get it, but ... I'm loving what I'm seeing.

Red panda sleeping bag in San Sequoia? Is it just me or is that a Turning Red reference? Hahaha
The little potty looks like the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man. 🤣
That column’s a good one… almost makes it look like you can build log cabins
I’m honestly glad I preordered cause I would’ve wanted the pack just for the gameplay alone let alone the build buy! Love the beds and all the build objects. Also I’m gonna be using that sheep stool in every nursery now and nobody can stop me lol
Very cool build/buy! I like that a lot of it is simple :)
Thanks so much for the build and buy vid Tonya! I've been super excited for all that Growing Together EP has to offer, but I've been dying to see a comprehensive BB overview, which has been lacking up till now. Great job and grats on early access.
I’m definitely getting this expansion soon can’t wait I need a changing table badly
i’m so excited for this new pack! it has been my dream ep for years !!!
the expansion pack comes out on my birthday and i’m so excited and happy aaaa!!! can’t wait for your content gryphi!!
Happy early birthday!!
@@Gryphi omg thank you so much!
I looooove the build buy style of this pack, can't wait to use it!
Also, I think those child sculpture items are for decorating the tree house once it's built.
I love the build buy items that are coming with Growing Together!
So excited to see this!!
Not EA finally learning to make consistent wood swatches and proper sets of windows and door in this pack and cottage living (and basically nothing else!) What is this, character growth?
Love the Build/Buy! They always do a great job with the build items
this video sold me on the pack - pre-ordering now lol
THE CHEESE PLANT ISN'T BY ITSELF?!?! I was going to buy the pack for that alone 😭
if you don't mind using cc, I bet someone will separate all the plants in that item within the next week of the pack being out! :)
The container wallpaper could be used in a robotics room. Idk just a thought. ❤️
the super tall chair is giving hotel lobby lol
i love everything. Only thing that bothers ne is changing tables being exclusive to GT
@7:36 as a long time HGTV watcher I just started screaming SHIPLAAAAP hahaha every white suburban mom's dream (but it does look really good...)
It looks like the kid sculptures are for decorating the tree house as they are the same themes.
You did such a great job showcasing the new pack! I definitely need to pick this one up
love watching evry video you cause your so, adorable. thanks for being so, entertaining.
OMG THE MUCCA PRINT
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh this is all so nice. :O
The metal panels also kind of look like wall with sound proofing panels built onto it. :|a
I agree the suitcase shelves would be way cuter empty, and the combo plants too! if we complain enough they may actually patch it in just sayin.. and if not.. well CC makers work your magic
I loved the contemporary/futuristic furniture!
There are no changing tables at all coming with the base game update?!
I like the very eco lifestyle style but I wish they had leaned into a more suburban style
Omg this luggage shelves with the luggage side tables you can have a jet setter tiny home
