Trinity Blakewell Posted February 17, 2022 Author Share Posted February 17, 2022 (edited) While waiting for the Newbrooke homes I've added a new category to my living room furniture section in my inventory...Modern. Mostly it was a matter of splitting off items from Contemporary with a few from Urban Rustic. So the way I define Modern vs. Contemporary is that Contemporary is the style that you'd see dominating most big box furniture showrooms in the US. It typically has softer lines and contains some classic elements. Some of Apple Fall's furniture and most of Brocante's furniture falls into this category, IMO, Modern, on the other hand, has more clean/stark lines, contrast, leather, stone, metal. Most of Architect's furniture and Black Wall's furniture falls into this category. Another term to describe what I'm calling Modern is Minimalist.

I'm doing good, if I get stuff out of the "everything else" folder and put it into "indoor or "outdoor furniture" folder. 😛 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frigga Freidman Posted February 18, 2022 Share Posted February 18, 2022 FLF sales at Consignment: a 3 LI flag-draped, dark oak console table (the "plain" flag option is black; I don't know if you can remove it without leaving burnt-on shadows). Also, this egg chair with some color options for the main cushion - but it's 16 LI! PG anims. $50 each. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frigga Freidman Posted February 18, 2022 Share Posted February 18, 2022 If you've kitted out your house as an old-fashioned, frozen-in-time home, D-Lab's icebox (5 LI) and sink (4 LI) may be just the pieces you need to complete your kitchen! $50 each. Opening doors (with all visible contents as shown) and on/off water, but no animations. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm doing good, if I get stuff out of the "everything else" folder and put it into "indoor or "outdoor furniture" folder. 😛 I find that I'm typically inspired by the forthcoming release of a new Linden home style and want to get things organized so I'm ready to get started decorating! It does make it easier to get started decorating a new home as there typically tends to be a dominant style I want to start with, and fill in with other pieces. I don't categorize bedroom furniture by style (instead by kind of furniture, ie beds, dressers, etc.) , and the dining stuff is mixed between style and table shape. And kitchens are sorted by configuration (modular, straight wall, or L-shape/U-shape). Edited February 18, 2022 by Trinity1776 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nando Yip Posted February 18, 2022 Share Posted February 18, 2022 For the guys who want a sober kitchen in their new modern home: This product is the D-LAB KC2 Kitchen stone counter, and it's available for $250. Its permissions are: COPY, MOD, NO TRANS. only 13L maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/D%20LAB/11/132/3002 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trinity Blakewell Posted February 18, 2022 Author Share Posted February 18, 2022 Thanks for posting that, Nando. I'm not crazy about the cabinet texture, but maybe since it's got mod permissions something can be done about that. On the plus side, the burners "light" and the sink water "runs". One of the things that folks were concerned about with the Newbrooke layouts was lack of wall space for a kitchen (due to all the large windows) . One might be able to position this kitchen as freestanding. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frigga Freidman Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 Once again Apple Fall is in the Saturday Sale, so I'm hoping this will become a regular occurrence! If the fence kit in your Trad Content Creation Pack isn't enough for you, you can pick up one of these fencing kits (fence components only - does not include the plants or path) for $75 per color ($68 if you wear an AF tag) - each panel and each endpost is 1 LI. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frigga Freidman Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 Hideki has another collection of stuff on sale this weekend, and 2 pieces have caught my eye for being unusual and low LI - the metal elephant wall decor and the carved wooden bear with guitar and books - 1 LI and $75 each. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frigga Freidman Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 Kalopsia has some entryway items on sale - the lattice coat hanger is 2 LI, $50; the bench (sits singles and couples) is 2 LI and $75; the mirror is 1 LI $50; the full set costs $150. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frigga Freidman Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 Pitaya has some very nice items for sale this weekend - the groupings shown on the posters are $75 each, except for the 19 LI gazebo, which is $175. 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frigga Freidman Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 This wardrobe from KnickKnacks is a nice piece, but keep in mind that the 3 LI demo model and 2 LI dress on a hanger have been re-sized down for display, and there is no indication of the LI for the actual-size items. (If anyone buys this, maybe you could verify the LI?) Texture change options for the wood and door panels. $75. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frigga Freidman Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 Another attractive garden feature from TM Creations - this rock garden is 10 LI, but you can unlink the various bits and use them as you prefer. $60. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have more or less stopped buying Kalopsia, because they price each and one of their individual small stuff in the sales. But this is large enough offerings to defend their price. Maybe I pass on the mirror, but the price for the set is only 25 L more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(The prim is 4.91) The dress is more difficult, but it can be stretched up a bit. 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the color, but it might clash with other themes I have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
