a light and airy contemporary gym with lots of pockets to rest and socialize. light simply pours through every activity and lounge area. enter through the serene lobby space, complete with a cozy sunken seating area. the ground floor has a double-storey gymnasium, and a separate building volume housing a long pool. the second floor offers seating areas with gorgeous views through the tubular glass facade and atrium, and two open-concept classroom spaces to work on fitness.

the rounded glass has this glitch where it only shows the furnished and populated interior of the building of the floor you're viewing from (this is noticeable if you're on the second floor and looking in from the outside, the ground floor will appear empty, or if you're viewing the building in it's entirety from view level 3)

up on the gallery titled "burners & builders 2.0", uses only businesses and hobbies! hope someone can get some use from this build <3

passed by a cute cube-shaped home in downtown toronto with carved out corners for the main entry and balconies that inspired the starting point for the massing here, but with the fun addition of contrasting wood tones to make those carved out spaces pop. windows loosely inspired by some fun sou fujimoto houses, but obviously nothing close to that with the limitations of the sims :')

ground level offers a private back patio with a long pool, along with an airy kitchen and dining area, bar nook, serene living room and powder room. second level has a spacious dreamy master bedroom with ensuite bathroom and balcony, and an open study/studio around the stairway. third level opens up to a bright flow-through flex space and shared balcony, leading to a generous shared bathroom and three more bedrooms furnished for a variety of ages, each complete with a skylight. the rooftop can be accessed via a ladder, and has a touch of landscaping with some skill-building items to really enjoy that mountain view.

this build uses only businesses and hobbies, designed for the inked inlet lot, and is up on the gallery with the name "Modern Nordhaven Home" — check it out and hope someone will get some play out of this!

first floor has a patio, cafe, staff kitchen, washrooms, and a bright culinary school classroom. the second floor can be set to residential or employees only, and offers an airy bachelor apartment space (minus the kitchen since there is a lot of kitchen downstairs), complete with a private patio overlooking the entry. i've been playing out of here for the last few days and it's fully functional, and a fun place to work (and live)!

ps when you host cooking or gourmet cooking classes, the attendees will cook in the space, and you can actually grab their creations and sell them in the shop :')

you can find it on the gallery by searching "bakery and cooking school", and it was designed for the "comfortably canalside" lot in nordhaven. hope someone gets some play out of this lot! if you want to solely visit it as a community lot in your save, you could make a new household and assign the sim(s) to be the owner of that small business

besides the exterior wallpaper, a chandelier and a plant pot, this is a base game build. it's up on the gallery titled "chateau de beurre (shell)", and i'm working on a furnished version to upload soon!
