The Rosewood

Hi guys!

Welcome to The Rosewood.

The Front View

So when I began building this I was originally just going to make an indoor restaurant with some nice floral landscaping. But when I actually finished putting in the landscaping and such, I decided that it was too pretty to just be on the outside, where your sims won't really see it. So I made the bottom floor completely open with a flower canopy over it. The entire restaurant part is open-air and has amazing views of all the flowers and trees. The top floor has 2 bathrooms and a seating area where your sims can just sit and chill.




The front host area is really open with some amazing plants that I love in the background. The bar is right behind the staircase and it's just a really nice place for sims to sit and wait for their table to be ready. At first I wanted to make it all super modern and sleek looking, but as I put in the flower, plants and such, I decided that a little bit more traditional look would be better. I used the new tables that came with the Dine Out pack and they added just a touch of a more modern style to this build which I really liked. The colors are all very white and neutral, just so that your focus would be drawn to the colorful flowers more.




I also put in lots of outdoor seating where your sims can sit outside completely surrounded by nature. In the front there are some big tables for large parties and at the back it's more romantic and meant for sims that are out on a date, or sims who just want a nice quiet place to enjoy a great meal.




I hope you guys liked this build. I hope you all have a great day/afternoon/evening wherever you may be in the world.

Happy Simming!

Tranquility Dining

Hi everyone!

So first off I need to apologize again for not posting in a while. My schedule has just been super crazy. It will probably get better though once the school holidays start, and then I should be able to post more frequently.

So since the new Sims 4 Game Pack: Dine Out came out yesterday, I thought I's build a restaurant and share it with you guys! I was so super excited for the release of the pack and I can definitely say that it was worth it! So let me show you my first attempt at building a restaurant.


Welcome to Tranquility Dining! Located in Newcrest, it's the perfect place to have a nice meal. Whether you're part of a large group, having a family dinner or are on a romantic date, this is the place for you.



This is the entranceway of the restaurant with the little host station in the front. It's a double-storied entrance with one of the new massive light hanging down. I tried to use as much of the new game pack items as possible. The painting on the wall with the blossoms is probably my favorite painting of the whole pack!




There's a large dining area. There are a few booths and tables that can fit any size party, from 2 sims to 8. The ceiling lights are also new and I love them! I used this exposed brick throughout the entire restaurant. I also used the new wood paneling that we got. Everything from the tables and chairs, to the décor and carpet is new and came with the new pack.


This is the kitchen where your sim-chefs can get to work preparing amazing dishes, everything from homestyle comfort food to exquisite experimental food.


I also added a little outside patio for more one-on-one dining.


There's also a bar on the second floor for when your sims are waiting for their table, but don't just want to stand around. I used some of the new wall decals all around this room. I really love the nectar racks that came with the pack, and they're so fitting since the Sims brought back drinking nectar.

Well, that the restaurant. There's also four bathrooms, two upstairs and two downstairs. I really hope you guys like it!

Happy Simming!
