Hello, are you ever going to upload your pink floyd house in the gallery? Just curious

I wasn’t planning it but now I will. I just have to landscape a bit and create a no CC version so I can upload both (most of the CC is from Harrie and Felix )

I’ll add my gallery id to the original post once it’s uploaded

Building a house in the sims 4 but every room is a different pink floyd album

I built this ages ago and it just now occurred to me that I could share this here. I was inspired by a lilsimsie video where she did the same thing except each room is a different Taylor Swift album.

So I built this shell of a house with 14 rooms (+ the exterior so 15 total albums) and then randomised an album for each room and decorated accordingly. Since I wasn't planning on actually playing in the house I didn't bother with landscaping lmao. Sorry for the awkwardly wide shots, I got lazy taking screenshots.

Anyways I suggest making it into a game by going through the photos first and trying to guess which album they are before reading. Let me know if you get them all and what references you catch

As a bonus I added the interior design styles I was vaguely inspired by

Here's the downstairs and upstairs floorplans

The exterior: I cannot make this up. I got the Wall, I was cackling

Style: I wanted English cottage but not in a thatched roof way.. in a Georgian way... and then I remembered I started complaining about Georgian cottages so I added more...shape and ended up with this... eh...

The Entryway: Ummagumma

Style: a bit transitional, she's homey, she's relaxed

I started off thinking I was going to make a relatively ordinary house

Downstairs hallway: Endless River

That basegame gradient wallpaper was actually perfect. This is the second room I did and slowly started dropping any pretenses that this was going to be an ordinary house

Downstairs Powder room: Momentary Lapse of Reason

Style: coastal but in an extra silly goofy way

THIS is where I finally decided to embrace the chaos. Unfortunately I didn't get a bedroom for this album but I actually like how it turned out.

The dining room: Wish You Were Here

Style: brutalism and minimalism

I'm actually obsessed with how this one (pls notice the grate behind the table)

The kitchen: Meddle

Style: Rustic, cottage

This was difficult...I was heavily relying on the colour scheme and references to the lyrics since the album cover looks like.. well... that...

The office: A Saucerful of Secrets

Style: 60s space age and Mid-Century modern

I was so thrilled to use that 60s space age chair

The living room: Obscured by Clouds

Style: traditional

I shared this with my dad and this room made him laugh.. I too was cackling while decorating it

laundry/utility/mudroom: Division Bell

Style: .......... fuck if I know

pls tell me you see the vision because this was a struggle

Upstairs hallway: More

Style: Spanish revival, Spanish colonial

uh... there wasn't much to do here but that's what I had in mind. Not pictured is a nice wooden chandelier above the stairs.

.......... I take it back. This was even more of a struggle

Bedroom 1: Animals

Style: Industrial

This is probably my second favourite room

Bedroom 2: Atom Heart Mother

Style: She's rustic, she's farmhouse

I HAD to use that topiary

Bedroom 3: Dark Side of the Moon

Style: If I had to choose one I would say contemporary even though it's not actually reflected in the room

Discover University actually came with a Dark Side inspired poster so I KNEW I would be using it

Bedroom 4: The Final Cut

pls tell me why the two kids' rooms ended up being colour-drenched in black..

(the bed is a military cot....)

Upstairs bathroom: Piper at the Gates of Dawn

style:... she's ...... eclectic

Saved best for last. The Sims has a gnome obsession and I FINALLY got to use them all

#So more about me I guess... I love playing the Sims... both building and gameplay #I also REALLY like interior decor and would consider redoing the album and design style associations #^^ especially since this one was heavily based on the visuals of the album covers and just whatever I thought was hilarious #My regular builds are better than this I promise ;-; #this was minimally decorated and also a joke build #pink floyd #meme energy #sims 4 #irving rambles #photo post #had the albums out beside me while I was decorating

My favorite Pink Floyd album is Roger Waters presents Roger Water’s The Wall by Roger Waters.

#my favourite thing is in the credits for producers it goes “listed in alphabetical order” because you KNOW Roger wanted his name on first #text post

[flash-the-readies]

my favorite thing about pink floyd articles is when the journalists stop pretending to be neutral and civil. I love the way this is phrased. "whatever the hell pops into Waters' brain on that specific day"

#bahahahahahahahha #you can HEAR the eye rolls

[flash-the-readies]

roger’s voice is so hot he would make such good asmr

#that’s what his bit from the body documentary is to me #also Southampton Dock from the Final Cut #what else #there’s these interviews #one about Animals one about the Wall #and he speaks in this very peculiar way #very breathy #his prosody is interesting

[flash-the-readies]

if my phone autocorrects pink floyd to Pink Floyd one more time I’m going to tear someone asunder. I’ll start capitalizing it when roger and david start behaving themselves

#my phone will leave pink alone but will capitalise Floyd so I’ll always wnd up with pink Floyd and I just…. #lmao that’s hilarious tho. alas it shall remain pink floyd #text post

[flash-the-readies]

yes roger is the main character of pink floyd but don’t forget that nick is the POV character so who’s really more important

#Nick really is the POV character #wait I love this TV show idea #my uni roommates and I had this whole concept going on about our apartment as a sitcom #so I can fuck with this #the prank episode has the surrogate band replacing the main cast and no one acknowledging it #text post

[flash-the-readies]

nick and david can pretend they have the moral high ground but in a deserted island survival cannibalism situation I know they wouldn't stop roger when he suggests eating rick first

#CACKLING #oh gods #I can see it #Rick’s just looking at Dave and Nick to back him up BUT THOSE BASTARDS ARE AVOIDING EYE CONTACT #THEN he makes the most passive aggressive and cutting comment in response which only eggs Roger on more #text post

[flash-the-readies]

Everyone making jokes about how undanceable Pink Floyd is hasn’t seen their early shows. That audience could dance to anything

#just admit you’re no match for that set of teenagers #honestly iconic #this is mostly referring to comments on Instagram or whatever #what’s also hilarious is Pink Floyd just doing their thing and then people like: yeah I’ll dance to that #like ..that wasn’t really what they were going for but those people came for a good time so a good time they will have! #text post #Irving rambles

Two smiling cats for @sailonacrossthesea :3

#aweeee #pls I love the Pibk Floyd fandom deciding that Rick is a cat #art

was enjoying a new layer of sound in the 2018 remix of dogs that I'd never noticed before. it was my fire alarm going off :/

#THIS IS SO REAL #I Love their use of field sounds but sometimes goddamn! #this is so funny tho #the opposite happened to me with some song on the Final Cut (album) where a dog started barking and I took my headphones off to hear the dog #and whoops… it wa sthe music 💀💀💀 #it got me multiple times

[flash-the-readies]

roger waters is fun because he's one of those rare real life examples of either dying the hero or living long enough to see yourself become the villain

#he dove head first into that and then upped the number of interviews #fascinating #text post
