Build Like A Nerd is back, baby! As you know these videos take a lot of work and I am so happy I am finally feeling up to making them again. The Second Empire or Mansard Victorian style home has always been one of my favorites. In fact, I was constantly surprised when this came up as a suggestion because I was so sure I must have already made a video about my beloved Second Empire. Problem solved! I hope you enjoy this ridiculously long video.

20:24 tip for those who have cottage living: if you take the “Grand Gable” (found in wall sculptures) and shrink it twice, it fits perfectly in that nook and covers the glitchy texture 💙 Manifesting that someday the sims will actually work and we won’t be forced to find solutions to problems they created 😭

Clever!! I definitely didn't think about trying that. Thank you!

Literally had to stop watching so that I could boot up the sims and build alongside you haha

AHHHHHH I'M HERE! I'M READY! IT'S NOT ORANGE! HOW DARE! Now for actual video commentary. :) 1 how dare you tell me not to eat the houses. I do what I want. 2 Air Platforms are all the rage now a days. New roofing style unlocked. 3 I HAVE REACHED THE PART OF NOT ORANGE. HOW DARE. INCORRECT COLORS. ORANGE EVERYWHERE. 4 45 MINUTES IN AND NOW YOU TELL ME I DON'T HAVE TO COMMENT ON THE VIDEO ITSELF. Wow. Wasted time./j 5 When in doubt Boulders. Enjoyed! I'm glad this is back. I've missed it.

Thank you for the ever insightful and valuable commentary. Please don't eat the houses. Prices are high enough without you consuming the market inventory.

I learned so much from this video! My favorites are the kinds of builds that fit perfectly into any one of the worlds. Very satisfying

@sahm_and_bean 2 месяца назад

So glad you enjoyed! It is nice to do builds that are post-railroad expansion and pre 1950 or so. The blueprints and style fads could travel relatively quickly and spread around the nation, but they didn't spread so quickly that all the regions look the same.

@simssaves4980 2 месяца назад

@@sahm_and_bean Absolutely, I'm sure several types of builds would fit nicely into many of the worlds. Sometimes I mix it up lot by lot, sometimes I section by neighborhood. As long as it looks good with the debug houses in the distance I'm happy =)

Yay, I love your Build it like a Nerd videos! I was going to give my legacy house a remodel soon, but wasn't sure on a style yet. This video has me inspired.

This would be so great for a legacy family too! So much space for the generations and collections 🥰

Only a minute in, but since you asked for suggestions: Lately I've been obsessed with the maison alsacienne (a type of half-timbered house from the Alsace region of France that typically has colourful walls and shutters, lots of flower boxes, very whimsical!) and I'd love to see you tackle it. I'm really struggling to find info on the interiors, so much of the literature I've found focuses on the construction methods, timber patterns, etc. which is neat but I need more info on the rest!

@sahm_and_bean 2 месяца назад

You know I love a half timber! It's on the list

I just stumbled on your channel - this video was recommended by the algo, and I'm charmed by 2nd Empire homes and have been on a bit of a Sims binge lately - and this is PRECISELY the sort of content I've been wanting for ages! I love doing historical styles as best as I can, and I love how detailed you are in your instructions! Consider me hooked!

I have been in love with Victorian homes since I was a little girl. This video is so great and so well done ❤

Same! Overall I find most homes interesting in their own way, but no era has been quite like the Victorians.

This is amazing. Thank you for breaking down the architectural style, I'm going to go through all your videos to see what other styles you've covered. If you haven't done art nouveau yet can you please cover that one?

@sahm_and_bean Месяц назад

I have not done art nouveau yet but it is on the list :) I'm glad you've enjoyed the video!

@myNanakyi 2 месяца назад

Awesome video, as always! Just because you asked for architecture style requests: I realize that you're American and (probably) therefore focus on American building styles - but I would LOVE to watch your like-a-nerd videos about some architecture styles as they were used in Europe. For example, I love the buildings at Paradeplatz in Zurich, or the "new old town" of Frankfurt (they very fancily restored Frankfurt's old town the way it was before WWII!). A completely different vibe (but also very lovely) would be the alleys of Valletta in Malta. And again another completely different vibe to dive into would be the beautiful main stations in many European cities (they look like huge greenhouses!), for example the main stations of Frankfurt or Cologne. Those huge glass roof constructions... now I think about it, these are probably impossible to realize in the Sims. But maybe interesting to look into :) Also: Do you have any tips for building on raised/ hilly terrain? I really struggle with that. Maybe that would be something for a tutorial video :)

@sahm_and_bean 2 месяца назад

I am incredibly American so I definitely tend to gravitate toward styles I'm familiar with, but I have done a couple of 'international' styles and I look forward to doing more in the future :) I do get a little scared sometimes with pronunciation and translation errors *but* I definitely will add all of these to my ever growing list 💙 Edit: some of these I have actually covered already, so that's exciting. However, I can see how it is applied significantly differently in an urban setting as opposed to as a standalone structure. So, more things to think about. Do we try to recreate one of these squares on stream, as with the Tiny Town from last year? Even if I can't get these ideas into traditional BLAN tutorial videos, they could be fun to build in a multi-day stream over the summer 🤔🤔🤔

Is it just me or is this the style of the Addams family house?! 😂😂😂(At least in the movies from the 90s I'm pretty sure 😅) BTW I 💖 this house style because it looks cool and I 💖 history in general 😊💖

@raefoster8743 2 месяца назад

I was so excited to see this one, as a friend quite likes this style I would consider move-in-ready to be like.. fully furnished, play-tested, etc. what would you say makes something move in ready?

@sahm_and_bean 2 месяца назад

I've mostly seen it used as if you're moving into a house irl. You won't have any furniture left from the previous owners, of course, but all the wallpapers, flooring, doors, cabinets, plumbing etc will of course still be in place. The tags "furnished", "fullyfurnished", and "playtested" would be used instead to highlight that the build is, in fact, furnished and playtested.

@Luqn.6 Месяц назад

which word is the most accurate for this style?

@sahm_and_bean Месяц назад

Word or world? Word, depends on the area. Mansard is technically the roof design and Second Empire is the style inspiration that relies heavily on the Mansard roof, and the other names are more regional. World, any American world can work as this particular tutorial is for the American adaptation of the style. To help it blend in with whatever world you choose, try to use similar colors to the other homes in the neighborhood and match the landscaping to the world. For example, if you decided to build this home in Strangerville, you'd use more desert plants and earthy tones.
