Trinity Aironaut Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 I've had such an amazing time decorating here at Bellisseria. My mind is swirling with ideas. Really more ideas then I have space for at this point. lol The smaller spaces have presented a challenge. I always seem to have to reduce what I make to fit. Both of these Gazebos were bigger when I started. Now they seem just right. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now that I have noticed it, I can't un-see it. Every time I sit in some of that stuff I look like I'm 5 years old. 2 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never noticed how huge some pieces are until I bought some that happen to be smaller. It's like when I first saw someone mention how huge house doors tend to be, and now I can't un-see that, either. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This has been a good exercise for me 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miakis Littlepaws Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 Simple wood deck area with planters and a small Japanese style fish pond with ornimental grass and koi. The bushes in the planters were canabalized from the TMG Little Path Crossing Group Gift. Ornimental Grass I got from the TLC Pond Kit. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marianne Little Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 (edited) I changed the bathroom in a houseboat. (Wallover) It has a very warm and organic feeling, I think. Edited May 12, 2019 by Marianne Little 18 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marianne Little Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 (edited) This is the bath layout. Some of the walls are thicker, but I made the not visible faces transparent, just in case I get a prim to mesh generator. I am looking for a better door, but I want something that doesn't cost so much, so this 10L door will do for now. I took these on a laptop and Nam's skin and prim windlight, so they look a bit different. The more flashy images over is on ShadowSet windlight. Notice the aquarium in the last picture? It's the 1 LI freebie from PrimPossible. It is no mod and it is really, really tall. I pushed it down, because this is SL and no need to worry about a hole in the boat. And edited a drawer around it. It looks a bit different now. Edited May 12, 2019 by Marianne Little 20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blush Bravin Posted May 13, 2019 Author Share Posted May 13, 2019 (edited) It's taken me nearly a month of trying to figure out how to get the Evening Star houseboat to work for me. I knew I wanted to raise the bed up so I had a view from those top windows, but nothing I tried did it for me. So I kept trying other houseboats, but this time it clicked! The view from the front doors is very open and inviting. I love how open it feels with all the windows. I built a snack bar island to separate the kitchen from the living area. Up a short flight of stairs and you find yourself on the first landing that leads to the bathroom. Up another short flight of stairs and you come to the cozy loft just the right size for a king size bed and a couple small night tables. I even managed a small closet. But the best view in the house is up the rope ladder to the reading nook and it's spectacular views. It's the perfect spot to catch the first morning rays coming over Bellisseria.

It has two ladders with climbing animations to get to the upper deck. Debi hasn't come to add the garden and outdoor furnishings yet .. but I did manage to get the more important plants in their pots and situated on the lower deck with lots of good sun.

Coffee Pancake Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 The last picture looking down into the room really shows just how huge the house boats are inside, it's a lot of space to fill (and in terms of floor space and volume, way more than even the biggest house).

Marianne Little Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 I picked Wallover since it has the stairs on the outside. Wallover is more like an apartment with my layout. When I see how many windows Evening Star has, I am going to make a few prims to give me a template to work with in a sandbox. The ground floor and the curved wall up. I imagine the bathroom behind the Kitchen, and I have a really interesting item from Cheeky Pea. Hehe. I buy so many things on sale that I never use, but now... I bought it for a boat, but had no inspiration. I have it now. /tease 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginger Cloud Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 (edited) I like how no one boat has taken over the waterfront. They all have their charms! The Wallover appeals to me because of the possibility of a sitting area at water level, right on the boardwalk. It would have a lovely view from my plot but right now the Windlass is the perfect combination of good views and a sense of privacy. I loved this add-on deck. Well worth the land impact. Playing with ladders. You can simply walk up it or engage a cute animation. It's a bit chunky though, I might look for something lighter. Nothing particularly new here but this snap shows (I hope!) how it flows together. Close enough that I'm back to thinking about the exterior. Even with my boat and a 20LI addon, I've still got 60-70 LI to play with, I could easily clutter this up a little more.

Is there any chance you'll be releasing your layout as an add-on? This is wonderful! I'm still patiently waiting for a home, but now I'm torn between a houseboat and a traditional!
