I never even realize it’s another blue build until she mentions it. New challenge: lilsimsie builds without criticizing herself! Let the build thrive girl
As a moroccan person the oasis pack have made my heart chuckle lol, especially the doors and the tiles are sooooo moroccan it makes me happy i always use the tiles because i love them ❤ i suggest you look the word "riad" or " moroccan house/riad" and you'll have endless options~
Courtyard oasis items are really beautiful, but most people including me simply don't know how to use it bc we don't have experience with this style. I wish instead of like 3 different kits we got one game pack with a middle eastern or Indian inspired vacation (or livable) world
has to be liveable. the vacation world "feature" is just features being taken away now that we can vacation anywhere. Also, India is the most populous country in the world, and I know people from there or who lived there as expats (including myself), but I've never met someone who vacationed there.
It's based on Morocco! So it's technically African although Moroccans are Arabs that moved to Africa. Nonetheless it's gorgeous and I can't wait to personally buy it. 🥹
@@ammiiel Oh I'm sure! I'm American and know some people who would like to visit there, and I'm sure there's plenty of people who go there on vacation even here in the US
I'd love to see Kayla go back and decorate this with all the other packs / expansions installed. Surprisingly, there's a ceiling lamp from the Batuu pack that would go really well with the courtyard stuff
Batuu is weirdly good for build/buy. There's the floor tiles, which are great everywhere, plus some things that match desert builds, and a lot of items that match industrial builds.
This. Realistically she might want to try My Wedding Stories. I know, but that's exactly where that Courtyard Oasis kit would suit best, being that it's just a ripoff of Greece and Sicily anyways
I have NEVER seen the courtyard oasis items in-game until this video. They're so beautiful it seems impossible to mix them with anything else. I wish more dlc had roof/platform trims and freizes.
I used the Courtyard Oasis kit for a Library I built in Oasis springs. It helped to look for inspiration images online before I started. The homes in Morocco, where this style is popular, are much different than your typical North American home. Just my piece of advice if anyone else is thinking of trying this.
I don't blame her lol. When I make builds in the back of my head I'm always trying to be inclusive for people's play styles so even though it would be way easier to just build freely with whatever I always limit my packs and budget.
I finally realized why kits bothered me and I never use the ones I have: because you can’t furnish a full house and nothing else fits with it! It seems so obvious now but i had to hear you say it haha. Beautiful build, and definitely worth the price :) I hope you'll make more build challenges with kits or older packs!
Omg I just came back from a trip to Portugal and some items in this build gives me so much Pena Palace vibe! Now I know this kit leans more towards Moroccan architecture but now I want to recreate a tiny version of the Pena Palace with this kit! Thanks Kayla for the inspiration
@@candiedskull9841no, not even those lights, there's plenty of great Kit light options. I made a pretty good house with just kits. Except the toilets... are literal pots... so not functional. Haha
This is a really cool build! I actually end up using a lot of Batuu stuff for this style of house, since the OG star wars was filmed in Tunisia, and a lot of the sets took inspiration from the local architecture
@@fatgore I built Moroccan riad inspired house just a month ago and I really wished (and still do!) that there were more African (North African in this case obviously) items. Such missed opportunity!
13:40 I think you did a lot better than what I would have done. I think it works for Oasis Springs. It gives me middle Eastern home vibes. Very beautiful architecture.😊
I think paranormal stuff and some Batuu (sorry but it’s true) stuff could work with this kit. I’d love to see more African, South Asian, and Middle Eastern content tho!
This is my favorite build you’ve EVER done. That may or may not be because having a smallish home with a courtyard has been my actual dream since I was a kid. Like, I’ve had actual dreams about this house. Downloading and remodeling it with more packs as I type
I would love if they made a travel themed expansion pack, with hotels that you talked about recently, and then the neighborhoods in the world, would be inspired by different places 😍 That would be so interesting 😍🌍 I would love to see something like India, Thailand, Australia, Egypt, Kenya, Greece (more than in tartosa😅), Greenland, Iceland, Alaska, Peru... Lots of very different places 😍 I live in Denmark, but I love the different types of cultures 💕
That build did actually make me want to buy that kit in the near future. Would love more middle eastern/ indian inspired items. An being from Denmark scandinavian styles :)
I love this build! It’s so beautiful! I think the best way to utilize the top section (if you were going to make it accessible) would be to have a staircase coming from the back on the outside.
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE this building style, my personal dream is to live in a riad, so it's honeslty my favourite build kit. If you want to keep building them, we can never have enough riads in this game (and my sims always live in houses you built so I'd love it)
Limited pack build with this and Wedding Stories for a community lot is pretty epic. And you can't go small. You MUST go over the top. I've never seen a dwelling or public space featuring such ornate architecture that wasn't large. Ya need the height and space in the dessert. It gets HOT.
That's because to use it, you have to fully lean into that style, because it's so different from all other build styles in the game. Outside of a few other City Living items.
It's like a little palace! There was a sims 2 ep which came w moroccan style furniture and I cant remember which one was it but I was obsessed with the sofa from that collection and i would put it everywhere even if it didn't match! it reminded me of that hehe
my reaction at the courtyard oasis build kit thumbnail: 😰😱 WHAT. Courtyard oasis is possibly my favorite build kit, and I have all of them except for country kitchen (and vacuums if that one counts)
I think that one other kit that goes well with this one is the pack with the tiger wallpaper. I think they complete each other a lot and they are nice to use together.
I liked the build so much. Honestly once you started the flooring, i wasn't even thinking about the starter home because it gave me Alladin and Mughal architecture vibes and it was looked very good. the upper floor had so much potential if not for the limitation of just bg and the kit but for flooring maybe like plain marble floors, and lean into the idea of like plain white, black or blue colors and a lot of decor. Like that armored statue from the bg. It can be like a collectible. Also for the roof, i thinki you could have just left it as it is because a lot of those buildings have like an open middle with fountains and/or gardens. I think you were limited by the challenge, i dont know, but now with the blooming kit and the greenhouse haven, i think this lot can be improved.
I love expensive one-bedroom "starter" homes. I use them when I wanna play with a new generation of YA sims in a long-established family. Like, my previous Sim is an elder now, super rich with a huge house that I've played in for a few generations. The next generation, I want to move away and start again. A house like this is perfect because my household can afford it and my new YA Sim will struggle a bit to pay the bills. My Sims being super rich can get too easy sometimes, so a house like this is a great way to make things challenging again when I get bored.
Build Challenge for Simsie that just popped in my head : build something using EVERY SINGLE ITEM from ALL of the build kits. Can use base game if there is no major appliances or plumbing BUT have to use the most expensive base game item if you must use them. It is okay to repeat items cause it’ll be even funnier to try make the rooms look different with the same items. I’m gonna try it myself 😂😂
I will say, I love using the courtyard oasis things with the vampires pack specifically! I know, weird combo, but my idea is that the vampires are from Romania- and Vlad the Impaler was the first vampire and he specifically fought with the Ottomans/Turks. So it's not completely out of the question for the courtyard oasis pack- which is kinda themed like the Ottoman Empire- to show up in some vampiric builds...
Such a cool build! Kinda reminds me of a cafe I went to in Oaxaca Mexico. Which made me think a restaurant in this kit could be so cool & the price doesn’t matter ;)
I'm currently 34 weeks pregnant and I've been watching your videos since the beginning without any ear phones and now my baby boy knows your voice and starts moving and kicking when I start watching you. It is so cute! 💙✨
How about turning the space above the back bedroom into a balcony and having stairs outside to access the upper level? This build is actually really beautiful!
What I love about that kit is it has the same vibes of some objects in the base sims2 game. There was an old lady in the desert world with a giant cemetery and an Arab looking house
I think you definitely nailed the style of building. It looks very authentic to me (given that I don't even know where in the world this style comes from 😅🙈)
I think for the upstairs situation, you could have done a separate small room that just has stairs, either accessible from the outside or from a room. That way you get another amazing arch or door and your upstairs is free to use.
Maybe it’s the particular style of the Courtyard Oasis kit but I’d love to take it and try to build a community center that’s attached to a mosque. The color of the blue tiles reminded me of the main mosque in my hometown 💙
this is amazing bc this is how our traditionnel homes looks like in my country, and it make sence why its expansive bc Queens and kings had those big stuff ( basic ppl have normal size stuff )
it’d be cool to do a build with ONLY your least favorite expansion pack, your least favorite game pack, your least favorite stuff pack, and your least favorite kit, and of course base game. but just a build of all (and only) your least favorite packs
I never even realize it’s another blue build until she mentions it. New challenge: lilsimsie builds without criticizing herself! Let the build thrive girl
Yess, or do not mention the budget, let creativity floww
It's a good way to talk about something it's 20 minutes long
@@boleslavblackyea but she does it every video, lets talk about the build style or the plant options, or anything really😂
lol ... yes please :) It always pains me how she puts herself down eventhough she is doing just such a great job.
Exactly!!!!!!!!!
Sims challenge for Kayla: build a house without using ANY blue. Like no blue at all. Nothing. Not even as an accent, not even a pixel of blue.
OOOOOH, Thats a good challenge!
She’d be completely unable to function
Not even as an accent...No sign of blue anywhere 😂😢 she is going to lose her mind
Ooh I think this is a fun idea!!!
What’s wrong with blue? It’s not a bad thing that she has a go-to
As a moroccan person the oasis pack have made my heart chuckle lol, especially the doors and the tiles are sooooo moroccan it makes me happy i always use the tiles because i love them ❤ i suggest you look the word "riad" or " moroccan house/riad" and you'll have endless options~

I love how Simsie tries to build us starter homes when most of us immediately use cheats anyway. 😅
Exactly what I was thinking 😂 I do appreciate it though
She’s always so stressed over the budget most of us wouldn’t have checked in the first place
I don't blame her lol. When I make builds in the back of my head I'm always trying to be inclusive for people's play styles so even though it would be way easier to just build freely with whatever I always limit my packs and budget.
relatable. Anyways, can I sell you on a 110k 1 bedroom loft in Windenburg?
@faithpiglover4life216even without pc, we still have cheats 😂

Build challenge : build a house using only basegame and journey to Baatu. Can be a star wars theme, but i think it'd be pretty funny either way
Ooh journey to Baatu and my first stuff pack 😂😂 that would be hilarious
Like that one pet store James built some time ago!! 😆
Kayle builds a blue oasis. I’m so proud of her for branching out 😊
I love Simsie spending 47,000 on a small house saying it’s so expensive, then there’s my 200,000 small house wondering where I went wrong
Omg I just came back from a trip to Portugal and some items in this build gives me so much Pena Palace vibe! Now I know this kit leans more towards Moroccan architecture but now I want to recreate a tiny version of the Pena Palace with this kit! Thanks Kayla for the inspiration
Maybe you could try building the whole house only using kits? I'd love to watch it❤
No base game either! Except the saucer lights lol
@@candiedskull9841no, not even those lights, there's plenty of great Kit light options. I made a pretty good house with just kits. Except the toilets... are literal pots... so not functional. Haha
This build is so genuinely stunning i dont even care that its expensive
I appreciate that you didn't limit yourself to your starter home budget & just rolled with your inspo!
Here's a build challenge. Build whatever you want. Don't worry about size, restricted packs, or budget.
This is a really cool build! I actually end up using a lot of Batuu stuff for this style of house, since the OG star wars was filmed in Tunisia, and a lot of the sets took inspiration from the local architecture
courtyard oasis is actually my favourite build kit ! but it really is hard to pair with other kits OR use it by itself
hopefully we get a north african world, but based on ea’s obsession with usa worlds i doubt we will see that
@@fatgorethat sounds like it would be so beautiful! i would buy it immediately
@@fatgore Oh, I would so much LOVE to get an african inspired world! I don't care which part of Africa to be honest. But it is sorely missing.
@@fatgore I built Moroccan riad inspired house just a month ago and I really wished (and still do!) that there were more African (North African in this case obviously) items. Such missed opportunity!

13:40 I think you did a lot better than what I would have done. I think it works for Oasis Springs.
It gives me middle Eastern home vibes. Very beautiful architecture.😊
New challenge: No restrictions build, use all the packs you want, without a budget and the size you want. I would love to see what you would create
I think paranormal stuff and some Batuu (sorry but it’s true) stuff could work with this kit. I’d love to see more African, South Asian, and Middle Eastern content tho!
It may not be a starter home, but how could it be with all those lovely tiles, doors, and friezes. It is gorgeous!
It's SO pretty, I think this kit just doesn't lend itself well to cheaper builds, less versatility but it's good to have them anyways
And with the recent price changes... the plants that were cheap are now very expensive
Sims earn money in seconds anyway 😆 Some items should be expensive, it's good the price ranges are versitile in this manner
This is my favorite build you’ve EVER done. That may or may not be because having a smallish home with a courtyard has been my actual dream since I was a kid. Like, I’ve had actual dreams about this house. Downloading and remodeling it with more packs as I type

I love this build!! This type of architecture is really familiar to me so I love that the game includes it, it's cool to see your take on the style :D
actually perfect budget for "sheikh's daughter's first home" vibes
I love this, it's so awesome! This build is so beautiful, everything is so intricate and thought-out, it's genuinely stunning!
It’s not a blue suburban. It’s giving Middle East home vibes.
Marruecos Blue Suburban

my reaction at the courtyard oasis build kit thumbnail: 😰😱 WHAT.
Courtyard oasis is possibly my favorite build kit, and I have all of them except for country kitchen (and vacuums if that one counts)
With the title and intro, I fully thought this would be with multiple kits, but these build is beautiful
This video is giving me the urge to make a building with a beautiful oasis 😫 I don’t have this kit but I can still draw inspiration from it
I think that one other kit that goes well with this one is the pack with the tiger wallpaper. I think they complete each other a lot and they are nice to use together.

ok i need you to a house like this for the next ramandan, this architectural styles all packs, no limits, because this was beautiful
I’d love a series of challenges where you only use one pack at a time and have to use every Item at least once.
Honestly I looooove the tile and doors in this pack but its the only thing I like about it 😂
I like it, and you inspired me to try building with the kit next time I play
It’s gorgeous!!
Love this.
I would love to see you do an updated build using only kits. I think it could be fun lol.
I’ve been wanting simsie to build more with the oasis kit since it came out!! I hope she does another build with all the packs
Such a cool build! Kinda reminds me of a cafe I went to in Oaxaca Mexico. Which made me think a restaurant in this kit could be so cool & the price doesn’t matter ;)
I love the tiles from this kit!!
I would love to see what you would build with this pack as the primary inspiration, but include items from island living and my wedding stories
This is so good! I have yet to figure out how to build with this kit.
I'm currently 34 weeks pregnant and I've been watching your videos since the beginning without any ear phones and now my baby boy knows your voice and starts moving and kicking when I start watching you. It is so cute! 💙✨
7:31 Jungle Adventure bathroom fixtures would look great there.
I really like this !!! I cannot build with this kit to save my life... even though I do really love this kit !
this is SUCH a beautiful build, I'd love to see you do something again in this style with unlimited packs
You did amazing. You need to do more builds like this.
In Morocco the use to have typical houses with an internal courtyard with a fountain 😮 you were so right!!!
I love the challenge. Please do it more often as it really creates lovely houses for people with limited packs, too!
Perfect vacation home! 🥰🤩
How about turning the space above the back bedroom into a balcony and having stairs outside to access the upper level? This build is actually really beautiful!
What I love about that kit is it has the same vibes of some objects in the base sims2 game. There was an old lady in the desert world with a giant cemetery and an Arab looking house
I think you definitely nailed the style of building. It looks very authentic to me (given that I don't even know where in the world this style comes from 😅🙈)
This house is so nice!
needed this after watching scenes from terrifier 2 😭 thank you for the pick me up
I think for the upstairs situation, you could have done a separate small room that just has stairs, either accessible from the outside or from a room. That way you get another amazing arch or door and your upstairs is free to use.
aww i like the tours at the end
i Love this build, 10/10 like always
Maybe it’s the particular style of the Courtyard Oasis kit but I’d love to take it and try to build a community center that’s attached to a mosque. The color of the blue tiles reminded me of the main mosque in my hometown 💙
Great build ❤️ love it
this is amazing bc this is how our traditionnel homes looks like in my country, and it make sence why its expansive bc Queens and kings had those big stuff ( basic ppl have normal size stuff )
this house would also slay in tartosa it slays in general
I actually really liked that kit. I think it mixes with other stuff pretty well 😊
I’d love to see you renovate it with all packs and kits and all installed!
it’d be cool to do a build with ONLY your least favorite expansion pack, your least favorite game pack, your least favorite stuff pack, and your least favorite kit, and of course base game. but just a build of all (and only) your least favorite packs
Court oasis is my favourite kit so I love this build!
Beautiful build 💛
Waiting for an all CC build Simsie!! That would be so fun!
It looks so pretty. I need this kit so I can download this house.
This house is gorgeous!
that house is gorgeous!
Reminds me of an old build of mine with almost the exact same layout! Mine definitely was not a starter home either 😂
