Modern Villa 1, by Mattb325.
---------------------------------------

Made after a request in the 'Bat Request Thread', this is a purely fictional design for the second in a series of Modern Villas.

Apart from the few hollywood-hills style R$$$ homes that come with the base game, and a smattering of custom content (if you want top quality, search on girafe's user name), it is an area that has largely been ignored.

Typically the modern villa is something of a compound: numerous projections create enclosed, intimate spaces. High masonry walls and hedges protect pools and indoor/outdoor areas from prying eyes. 
The materials palette is usually understated - monochromatic white/dark grey plaster, zinc, wood, marble and stone. 

Double height spaces abound and floor-to-ceiling glass is used expansively. Hedges of tall cypress trees cocoon the lots from neighbour boundaries and planting in rows create uniformity of street scape. These sorts of houses are something of an international style: they can be found in coastal/city/mountain locations across the globe.

They grow on the modern Houston and Euro tilesets only and are modded so as not to become too weedy.

Like all of my work, these are suited to both CAM and non CAM cities alike.

A building-family ploppable, MMP version will be vailable shortly which will contain all of the series of villas.

NOTE ABOUT DARK NITE vs MAXIS NITE:

This download contains TWO model files; one for dark nite users and one for the standard Maxis nite. If you are unsure whether you have a night-darkening mod installed, then choose the Maxis night version. 
If you use the dark nite version, you will need a dark nite mod. (http://community.simtropolis.com/files/file/23089-simfox-day-and-nite-modd/)
