We all love that oversized V-neck sweaterthat@memento-simsconverted! 

And because I love to waste time and destroy my eyeballs, I took that mesh and gave it a new texture. For fun!

Comes in the above 4 colors. PSD included if recoloring is your thing. 

All textures have been sourced from other TS4 stuff. Except the sweater-y overlay, that was AAS.

This mesh does exist for tf and ef, I may make this for them in the future. Or anyone else is welcome to!

3t2 Belted Sweater Edit

In which the edit is that I removed the undershirt! It was a long time coming lol. They’re for teens, adults, and elders, they have the appropriate morphs. I made new recolors, which mostly look like the old recolors, but there’s 8 of them now (you can get the PSD from here! That’s where I got it too, because I lost the one I had on my computer lol). As usual, you can choose if you want the other ages repo’d to the AF files, or not :)

These H&M displays separated and retextured (brought to you by @episims and yours truly)

So, Epi separated and retextured this for her jewelry shop (it’s from the H&M counter corner originally), and I thought I could make it functional! So now it’s a working jewelry stand! Also, you don’t actually need H&M, because it’s got new textures (the originals were ugly lol). But you’ll need the Bon Voyage EP for the rack to work!

Texture credits go to Vecteezy, Shasta for the metal texture and color, and there’s some texture from sims 3 as well

Have fun!

ICONIC DESIGN

I offer you selection of my favourite design pieces created during the 20th century that are considered icons of modern era at the same time. They are not only a part of the permanent collections of world´s the most leading design and decorative art museums but thanks to their timeless appearance they are still the best ingredient of many high-end modern interiors. 

And maybe this list may seems as cliché I try to bring to you a context that proves the most of the best designs were revolutionary, visionary and innovative at that times and pushed the boundaries not only for design and furniture industry but for everyday simple life. 

And that´s what matters. 

Pavli

1.  Vitra - Eames House Bird, around 1910     ♥ / ♥ / ♥

The bird was originally carved by Charles Perdew around 1910 as a bird decoy for hunters and became popular in the 1950s, primarily for its minimal shape and dark color. It was popularized by Charles and Ray Eames, who acquired one on their travels in the Appalachian mountains and soon can be seen in many of their product photo-shoots.    

2. Arne E. Jacobsen - Ant chair, 1952

3. Pierre Jeanneret - Office chair for Chandigarh, 1955-1956

4. Charles and Ray Eames - Rocking Armchair Rod (RAR), 1948

Large family of Plastic chairs are the most well-known designs by Eames. Designer couple won second prize with them in the ‘International Competition for Low-Cost Furniture Design’, organised by the New York Museum of Modern Art. They used a fiberglass, a material that was entirely new to the furniture industry and at that time reserved for the US Army.

5. Charles and Ray Eames - Dining Armchair Rod (DAR), 1948

6. Charles and Ray Eames - Lounge Chair and Ottoman, 1956

8.  Warren Platner - Platner Arm Chair, 1966

Not limiting itself to architecture, Warren Platner also experimented in furniture design. In the 1960s, as the modernist movement became more expressive, Platner focused on a quieter aesthetic, wishing to create more graceful structures. The Platner Collection captured the decorative, gentle shapes and is now considered a design icon of the modern era. 

9. Charles and Ray Eames - Eames Lounge Chair Wood (LCW), 1945

In 1999, Time magazine declared the LCW the greatest design of the 20th century. The original LCW was a result of designing plywood splints for the US air force. After several experiments Eames came up with an “honest” ergonomic chair that was soon coveted the world over.

10.  Vico Magistretti - Atollo lamp, 1977

This object of Industrial design by Italian designer Vico Magistretti for O luce won the 1979 Compasso d’Oro award and took its place in the permanent collections of design and decorative art museums as MoMA, becoming so much more than just a lamp: an icon.

14. Poul Henningsen -  Artichoke Lamp, 1958

The iconic lamp was designed for a commision for a restaurant in Copenhagen. The fact that the light source couldn’t be seen was very revolutionary at the time. When people didn’t see a lamp as a nice object but simply as a generator of light, Henningsen was one of the first to think of both.

15. Jean Prouvé - Standard chair, 1934   ♥

During World War II, Prouvé was a member of the French Resistance, and his first post-war efforts were devoted to designing metal pre-fab housing for those left homeless by the conflict.

Inspired by the open string construction of traditional Mayan hammocks nearby, he designed a chair fit for the modern tropics.
