Skyline Apartments, by Mattb325.
---------------------------------------

This is a purely fictional design for an 18 floor apartment complex suitable for inner-city areas.

While all of the apartments benefit from floor-to-ceiling windows, an otherwise basic facade is given visual interest with angled terraces (executed in a bronze-tinted glass) as well as staggered cubes on each elevation.

It is offered in two versions: CS$$ (as this will also work as a hotel design, and enables you to plop this down using Buggis extra cheats) and an R$$ apartment on the modern Houston and Euro tilesets.

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

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/)

This is really cool.  Looks like something you’d see in a rust belt metro being reborn as the tech industry moves in.  This will be useful!

A contemporary design with bold colors that is well-suited for modern urban environments! What I like here is that there are some solid windowless surfaces, but Matt's texturing maintains a sense of realism and visual interest, just the right amount of "noise" and variation in surfacing to make them interesting. The angled terraces are a nice touch as well, especially at night!

A wonderful and versatile addition. Thanks Matt! 5/5!
