I genuinely don't understand how deli always makes her starter homes look so beautiful and bright and actually trending meanwhile maxis uses like 4 pieces of furniture and it always looks so depressing and drab
I think Maxis' Mission is to PURPOSE the drab so our imaginations get jump-started...
pack restrictions man. base game builds are hard
I think they also have a limit of the number of items they can use (I don't know why but I saw it on some of the videos where KZheadrs built for packs and they said they had a limit)
They have a limit so the game can run nicely wherever you’re playing
basically what others have said already, maxis builds are sparse because they need to be able to run smoothly on PCs that can only meet the minimum requirements to run the game (James Turner explained this in his builds for the werewolf pack)
Love how EVERYONE renovates this exact home (including me) yet everyone's renos all look different and make the house come to life!
Agreed! Everyone's different, and their personality, interests at the moment, what they looked at last, state of mind, culture, etc. All plays in on how they'll do it, and that's really interesting to see!
I renovated that house into a vampire's vet clinic. It's worn down.
something about that green draws us in like moths
I totally agree, we need a LOT more basic wallpaper swatches that are contemporary! Also, great reno, it looks really nice and a lot more expensive than just a starter!
You're exactly right deli. The sims team should update at least some of their houses. They have the resources to hire real builders to make these house more practical and useful. It'll be a way to update the game without a big patch.
Trusting EA to do something their players want. smh
I actually prefer having EA builds because then I get to renovate them. When they’re already perfect it’s boring to me 🤷🏼♀️ but I can understand why some people would like an update. I just don’t want one lol
I feel like “some” of the exteriors are okay ish but the interiors are always hideous
@@LAURA--- true, I really like re- decorating the houses
@@DylanRomanov You can tell they were developing a game first rather than building a home. It has the basics but feels like a husk.
I think the old bed could actually add to the story line. The dad prioritizes his kids and works hard in order to provide for them even if that means sacrificing his own comfort. A beautiful build, as always, Deli! Thank you for sharing with us
Your Reno’s are absolutely amazing. This is not the first video i’ve watched, but the first one I have commented on. Love your use of color, and watching your imagination flow. Seeing how all the rooms flow and everything is usable at the end as well. Incredible!
You look sm more healthy and strong lately and it’s so lovely to see, I hope you’re doing well deli bells 🫶
Was she sick? 🙊 oh no
@@erikalangbein4586 I don’t think so but she lost her gran and has been busy but the past week she just looks a lot happier, maybe it’s just me
Thank you :) I’ve had a rest and been able to start exercising again! ❤️
@@deligracy I’m so glad, I love to see you doing well 🫶
Deli I love renovation videos that ARENT speed builds! Would love to see more of these videos 🥰
I’m dying for a mid century modern build ❤
Ooohhhhh
It looks great! I simply love how you do interiors!
I just renovated this and made it a very open, cozy little home for a young woman into books and herbs and everything. The little left room I opened up and put curtains to a cozy bedroom and the kitchen is in the back with a sittingspace build into shelves in the front. It worked out very well but I had to extend the left to the back for a bathroom. It's one of my favourite homes on the small side now and I think the lot is really nice in and of itself.
Your renos are always getting me pumped up and inspired to do more buildings myself in the sims 4. They're just so simple yet so refreshing
waking up on my day off and watching a new deli vid in my deli merch = best start to my day ever!!! been waiting for you to renovate this lot :) love from michigan, friend!
Yayyy! For deli MERCH !
One thing I love about Deli and James is how they see the potential of every pack and they find ways to make everything useful! I love building with Batuu and I love seeing Deli and James build with it too, even if we all still make fun of it a bit 😂
Deli always makes me wanna go build her styles but I never can even get close. She is amazing so glad i came across her awesome videos
I feel that you're the whole package when it comes to Sims KZheadrs: you can build, make stories, do CAS. Love every video you make and can't wait for a new let's play
What an upgrade from the sad beige. I think this was one of the first houses i played in when i first got Sims 4 and I think i just moved out because I could not figure out how to make it look good. lol
It looks so pretty and inviting. The TVs are so expensive in this game but I love the one you chose since it functions as tv, stereo and bookshelf. You did a wonderful job!
The home feels like one of the parents is an interior designer. I love it so much. I need this
Hi Deli, I was wondering because you’re doing apartment renovations recently, what if you made a Barbie apartment for Malibu and Brooklyn!! Just an idea. 😊😊
Love this idea!
I love all the colors you’ve been using in your builds. The accent corner in the kids’ room was also brilliant. I may have to steal that idea
This is one of my favourite lots! It's got a fishing spot in the back, there's the tree across the road to the left (facing away from the house), and it's a pretty good size lot to build on!
Woke up not feeling good today so staying home from work and seeing you had uploaded a video made me so happy 😊. Love when you do renovations of the older sim homes❤️
I hope you can take the day to rest well! I woke up in pain and i'm also staying in bed watching Deli x Take care
You got this!
The house is COMPLETELY unrecognizable and I love it!! 😊🩷
Love the idea of making a house for a specific family, it makes the build more alive!
Love this renovation! The warm tones work so well with the black and gray, and the pops of orange are a brilliant touch 👌🏼 I was so bothered by how you left the potty in the bedroom tho 😂
I definitely would've brought out the debug plants for the landscaping just to make the outside look pretty while still keeping the price down.
This is one of my new favorite builds! I love this so much! I would never get behind that bright orange table though, lol
Love the idea of creating a house for a given family. It would be a great way to lead into generations. Building to suit their personality and varying budgets. I would be up for making a family for Deli to build for.
Love the look of it! And yes, it's very modern scandinavien! Will download it and keep the exterior, interior and 80% of the furnishing and try make it more exklusive but stil in budget. 😇😁
I wasn't expecting that major of an upgrade, Amazing job!
I'm loving the shape and contrast of the exterior! The chevron wood tile and blue look so good together. I can't believe how well the tile matches the dream home decorator items!
Wow, I love how you modernized that old house! It looks beautiful, comfy tbh and definitely livable for a small family. That's so cute! 😍😊🎁👌🏽✨️
I loved this renovation so much 🔥🔥✨ love the modern and simplistic take on it. It was such a huge transformation!
Just started to play The Sims again and today I stumbled upon this video. I'm just AMAZED. You're truly talented! Subscribed for suuure.
These are my favourite types of builds! Would love to see a whole world renovation of all the maxis builds in Willow Creek. I particularly love the starter home builds though, showing you can have a nice starter home on a small budget.
As a Scandi I would say it looks very modern Scandi so good job (the panels), because I have started to see new apartment buildings outside Stockholm looking wonderful like that, my aunt lives next door to houses like that and I love them, reminds me of the houses up in skiing places. Otherwise we mostly have coloured houses, but wood is correct (if you don't go down to Skåne, where bricks are more common, at least in Trelleborg, where my husband is from, and even Gotland and Öland doesn't use wood as much).
I so badly just want to be able to send pictures in YT-comments, I have so many lovely swedish houses right outside my window atm 😍
I used this starter home in one of my saves and renovated it IMMEDIATELY. it is roughhh. after that though, i kept renovating as the family got bigger and it became a really sweet memory :)
I really love the colors that you used! Good job Deli!!!
I'm really impressed by how she manages to make her starter homes look so bright, beautiful, and on-trend. In contrast, the starter homes from Maxis only use a few pieces of furniture, and the overall look is often dull and uninspiring. I am still struggling with my building.
I just found you and omg you’ve made me want to start building again. I love that you do small and cheap Reno’s but they still love amazing. Hello from a fellow Aussie too 😊
aww such a pretty reno!!!💖 Deli I wanna see you go crazy with CC and all the packs and just have fun decorating an apartment!
This is soooo pretty. Can’t believe it’s a starter home! Great work!
I think somehow I have tapped into your brain! the day before the last video I rebuilt the same apartment with a lot of the same furniture and style and a same sex couple that had a yoga and meditation room. Last night I built on the empty block next to this. I used an old 1950's carpentry book that has how to build an entire house in it to build a lovely midcentury home that has the vibes of this beautiful build. I will definitely be building your home next door. Keep up the amazing work!
i went to 8 years of architecture school and i am obsessed with your scandinavian minimalist contemporary modernism sort of vibe, my arch profs would love this
regarding grass roofs, they are much more common in wet and cool climates because in areas prone to wildfires they don't want kindling flying off of peoples roofs
Ah thank you! That’s so cool
I recently redid this house and it turned out amazing! Loved redoing it for a family of 4.
i love deli's building style sooo much. Genuinely one of the best sims builders !!!!
if you delete the landscaping, you can use debug items. helps with the cost a lot.
Love a good budget build. This looks amazing! Love the colours you used and it gave me some great ideas for my own builds!!!!
I just started playing on my laptop and I watch your videos to help me learn how and you explain so well love your videos and the house looks great ❤
Deli, have you considered looking into “star carpet” / Nanarusha as a grass roof alternative? It is a great grass alternative in drought heavy areas as well as resistant to heat and cold. Also really loved this reno, such a lovely family home. ❤
This starter home looks so nice, I can’t wait to see what you have built for Growing together.
I love it, especially the exterior!
It looks sooo good now!!! Love seeing your renovations!!!
I love it! It looks amazing. I would like to see more renovations like this and if possible maybe a park renovation or a community lot?
Killed it staying in budget!! Such a cute starter home for this fam ❤
Love this! So trendy but still in budget! Deli is the best ;)
This is my favorite reno of this house! Great job!
There’s something about this home that’s so cozy and comforting that makes me wish I could live in it
I loved this build so much!!
Omg, this is the first video from that channel that I am watching , but your voice sounds just literally like Phoebe Tonkin’s I love it 😮
This is the cutest starter home ever! Sick to death of base game builds as most of the objects are so outdated. Love you deli 😍
Very cool build! I really enjoy the way you combine wallpapers together! 👏
Omg idk what it is but your voice is so comforting and soothing
I just love it. I'll use this inspiration for the house on the other side of the street. ❤
I’ve never seen one here, Deli. But I’m in Queensland, so can’t imagine it’d be very successful here.
I also LOVE apartments, more than houses. You will put colors together that I never would have thought will look great, but it looks gorgeous. In South Africa where I am from we also have a lot of grass roofs and as you know we also have hot weather. I think the maintenance of grass roofs are extremely expensive.
Absolutely amazing! I would live there. I really admire your creativity and talent!
you have such good design sense!! this looks amazing!!
Just when I wanted to rewatch some of your videos, you uploaded a new one
Yes!! Beautiful work :) Downloading this tonight ✨
I really like how this turned out in the end! This is one of my favorite houses to rebuild and I enjoyed watching you do it 💜
Thank you! 😊
Oh that’s fun! I just started playing the sims and this is my first house. I’ve learned so much from you that I spent all day yesterday remodeling it.
I'm so glad!
omg this is gorgeous you make the most beautifully unique builds
Obsessed with how consistently beautiful your renovations are but I was begging you through the screen to move the toddler potty to the bathroom HAHA
Now I really want to see you play this family in this house and upgrade it as you go! So much potential. Thanks Deli
Yesss! Iam always down for an LP ♥️😍
Another great build Deli! 💜
Well built, Deli! Good job. I like it a lot.
In Victoria at Beechworth, as you come in, there is a house that is built down so the roof is a grass hill.
Another great build! Love this one
You forgot to put the toddler potty back! I always struggle with smaller layouts and make them big and bulky. You did so much with such little space
Green roofing isn't entirely unheard of, but it's more expensive than a regular one so you won't see them a lot outside of high end bespoke designs. Otherwise, we use different kinds of greenery than you would in the UK. I've seen a few new apartment buildings lately that incorporate greenery on the outside and a roof garden, which seems to be a bit more common than a full green roof.
I think this turned out really well, I wish we had more of a budget for landscaping but I like it!
that eco lifestyle paint is my lifesaver for every starterbuild👍👍 start off with white and play around per room😅
Love the renovations ❤️❤️❤️
After seeing all that beutiful furniture, I need to get some expansions. Also love your video! 😁
The house is so cute! I really love it. As a new simmer i really struggle making a house colorful.
my god, i need to pic up my jaw off the floor. This transformation is AMAZEBALLS!!!! i cant even!!!
Yaaaayyy! I always love starter Reno’s!
In country the country i live in, many houses have grass. They are also concrete on the bottom and Wood at the top. In Denmark, which is part of Scandinavia, your House would def. fit inn😊
While I've been enjoying the apartment renos, I really love your style in the exterior of a home. Great job!
Thank you so much!
Deli's Home Renovator is my fave of all-time! Makes me want to move to Australia so you can reno my home in real-life, hahaha.
This looks so awesome congrats deli
Your builds are always so beautiful. Not necessarily my 'taste' (old fashioned and cottagy) but really beautiful!!
Love seeing you transform these dingy starter homes into such pretty builds. So inspiring! 😍
Thank you!! 😊
I remember this being the very 1st house I played in, so much wasted space. Your redesign is way better. Glad they are letting you all design in the new packs coming out.
This turned out so cute!
Deli always seems to make the most simple things look amazing :) x
❤❤❤
Renovation of the year goes to this house.
Deli !! Would you ever do another world save (just willow creek or windenberg, not save file)? I would love to see a cohesive neighborhood with all these willow creek builds and you saying sims should update some builds ! I think it would be awesome. Keep the families where they are or create new ones like this with sims off the gallery. I would download it !!!
I’m tempted!
