Re: Small Family Home
Since posting that previous comment, I realized that I'd forgotten to put a path outside the garage side door... then while in the file I decided that I'll enclose the garbage bins on the side like I did on another one of my houses... Then I had an idea for an addition, a small shed-like building, that I could use to (surprise, surprise) have a sewing room... I also made a few cosmetic changes to the driveway and the front walkway... then realized that maybe I should add a sidewalk... I realize that this puts a definite "beginning" to the design while I still don't have a definite "end" to the design in the backyard...

Virtual visitor view of half of the back patio, mainly to show off the new addition. That fireplace just doesn't want to render well it seems... Actually, when I went to take this picture, I realized that I'd forgotten a path outside the shed, just as I'd forgotten from the garage, but I didn't want to take the time to retake the other two pictures (although that mistake isn't really noticeable I think).
Virtual visitor view of the "Sewing Shed" (I couldn't come up a better name for it ) From left to right: I've got a corner desk with a hutch, desk lamp, sewing machine, desk chair, filing cabinet, one-wall wardrobe to hold my fabric (I also had to include a wall HVAC unit hidden in there), and a crafting/cutting table with a hanging lamp.

Re: Small Family Home
I am so devastated at the moment; my computer crashed on me yesterday without warning, and I lost a good number of the house designs I've been working on (not to mention other things I'd saved on it). The ones that I didn't lose were ones that I downloaded to MediaFire, but some of those aren't quite updated (I posted those there then made modifications, but didn't save the modifications).
So, it looks like some of them I'm going to have to start from scratch, and some I'll have to update, hopefully with the help of the pictures I've posted here and on Facebook as references. That'll take some time though.

Re: Small Family Home
It's been over a year since I last posted about this home; I hadn't realized that I'd overlooked this one. The sad thing is, this was one of the homes that I hadn't saved to MediaFire at any stage. I've had to recreate it from scratch.
It's still a Work-In-Progress (needs lighting, the outside needs painting and landscaping, I still need to add the attic vents, the furniture needs customizing, that sort of thing), I wasn't able to get some of the furniture I'd used previously, and I've added a coat closet as well as a chimney.
I'm just posting the file as-is at the moment but should be working on it further, as well as a quick aerial shot. I hope to have more pictures soon.

Re: Small Family Home
I almost forgot that I also wanted to add the texture I'd used as the wallpaper in the Living Room, Dining Room and Hallway.
As you can see, this complements with both the green and the blue textures that I'd used on the furniture in those rooms.
It's also hard to tell by the pictures but I did use a very light green paint in the Bathroom, Laundry/Utility/Mud Room, and the Master Bedroom Walk In Closet (RGB #E0E4E1), and a not-so-light green in the Master Bedroom (RGB #ABB8AF).
