I do have a mat under my sink but it's there to keep you from slipping and to cushion your feet while doing dishes. It's the same kind my mom uses as a hairdresser at her job.

My head cannon for this family is that they were all foster kids at some point. Akira aged out first and is roughly 25-26 and when Miko aged out he took her in and she's now 20. Darling just recently aged out and is 18. I figure they were foster siblings with the same family so Akira sees them as his siblings while Miko sees him as her prince.

I never ever realised why every renovation I did of this house never pleased me for long; I never had a great floorplan. Deli's floor plan is just ELEVATED. It's genius. And can we also talk about how gorgeous Deli looks in today's video with the glowy skin, off the shoulder top and cute bun? Slay!! :)

I incorporated Mt. Komorebi furnitures when I renovated this as I feel like both Miko and Akira are originally from Mt. Komorebi then moved to the city. My headcanon is: Darling is Miko's ward because Miko is a social worker and Darling is still a teen.

Deli: “I HAVE to put toilet paper in EVERY build” Also Deli: *forgets fridge or bin in most builds*

I just absolutely love when the Sims are walking around and using the amenities while Deli is giving us the tour. It's like, yea we're selling the house but people are still living in it and it's a really lovely rental. You'll love it, too. 😅❤

yes,a rug in front of the stove and in front of the sink is pretty common in the usa. i like having them because it cushions my feet if i'm cooking a long time or doing a lot of dishes

Yes, you've got to have an anti-fatigue mat for cooking at the range and washing up at the sink as you get older!

Deli’s hair and outfit today is giving arethabee cc

Bowser is snoring like a grown man 😂

YAY apartment reno!! These have been maybe my favorite series from you, Deli! Love your haircut btw.

My parents used to have “easy wash” rugs by the stove and sink as cushioning for standing there for a while but now they’ve got really nice rubber stress impact mats there instead (they wipe up with Lysol so easily). My mom has issues with her ankles and knees and it helps her stand in front of the stove top or sink if she’s there for awhile. Also keeps her feet warm on the cold tile. And I agree, Darling being a teen is a little odd, but I figured Miko is just a little older, that they went to high school together or were foster siblings or something and Miko graduated and aged up first?

I can't speak to Australia or the rest of the world, but in the US it's not uncommon to have a mat in front of the sink and/or in front of the stove/oven. Rugs are less common. The purpose is to protect the floor from spills and splashes, but also to give you a bit of cushion under your feet while you're standing there for awhile. Because they can catch spills it can reduce the risk of falling as well. They're usually washable in some way, either with soap and a rag, in the washer, in the sink, etc.

I don't know why but I have the need to put a rug under the sink on every build 😂

still just loving Deli's new hair!! so hip, so fresh, so cute haha

it may be an American or Canadian thing, but I do put small rugs under the sink and stoves, thankfully it's not a fire hazard but it does get messy, I use it as my knees and feet hurt if i stand for too long.

What painter sees that view and says "I'd rather paint a fruit bowl"? loved the revised floor plan! definitely makes a huge change

I have a rug under my sink, but it's more of a mat and it's cushioned so I can stand there comfortably and do dishes. I used to have a rug under my stove as well but it did get really messy and since I washed it I haven't put it back.

rug under a sink is a very good thing - all the water drops from dishwashing or food cleaning processes are absorbing by the rug so you dont have to step on wet floor, just need to machine wash them once in a while and have a spare one in this case, also its more comfy to stand on a rug than on a cold floor.

hi deli! so, here in brazil is pretty common to have rugs under the sink/stove. all the people that i visited to this day had one, and it's actually to keep the dirty that could fall on the ground in the rugs, so it's easier to clean later (that's what my mom said). it's so common that even when i moved to another house, it had already one. even in the bathroom!!! I always find so fun to see the diferences in another places :) love all your builds and your hair it's looking stunning!!

In the USA it's common to have kitchen rugs (which are generally padded) in front of the sink and sometimes the stove. They wipe down easily and make it more comfortable to stand there for a longer period.

I am LOVING this new hair on you Deli!

Deli when you've finished San Myshuno, move on to a new neighbourhood and reno every lot (and community lot!!) Keep this series going forever, we'll watch it! There are some really tragic bars, gyms and parks I need to see you please fix! 😫 Just go through and fix every neighbourhood (except Moonwood Mill, of course, can't fix perfection!)

Apartment renovations are my favourite type of renovations🤩

What you do to these apartments is basically magic. It gives me hope for my own dire IRL flat, lol

This is such a cool representation of what shared homes are truly like. The older furniture upstairs, the one flatmate who furnished the main rooms and made it feel like a home, the ikea style furniture!!! I went to a party once in a 6 bedroom townhouse, a friend and all of her roommates lived in, and they had like their whole downstairs living area covered in music equipment and a stage and the top living area was for movies and tv! It was the coolest thing! At the party they played live music. So fun, but I don’t know how I would live amongst the chaos!!! This build reminds me of that. Awesome build Deli, I love your style and love the haircut!! 💝

I'm with you Deli, the ticking of clocks drives me CRAZY

I have a mat under my sink, but it's a specific kitchen mat I bought from Bunnings and it's waterproof and squishy, which is super nice on the feer while standing and washing the dishes!

A lot of homes in the US have those anti-fatigue rugs (plastic cushiony rugs) under the sink. I believe for standing for long times (I have a dishwasher so I’m not standing washing dishes for long lol). I don’t understand one under the oven though really.

I do like a rug under the sink (the kind you can throw in the washer, tho). It’s nice to stand on a rug when I cook / do the dishes

The doggy snores 😂 I love it

I always thought it was live mode as in “live studio audio” because the sims are live and moving, not live as in “I live in this house”

We keep a rug in front of our sink. It's great if any water spills... helps prevent slipping. The right mats can also give cushion when you're standing there washing up. They're small enough to toss in the washer when they get messy. At least amongst the people I know, sink rugs are very common but I have personally never seen one in front of a stove IRL.

Deli's attention to detail and creative point of view in all of her builds is the push i needed to go do my interior design diploma alongside my college degree ❤❤❤

Very nice reno. I think those posters belong to Miko because of the career she’s in. I keep a padded mat at the sink and one of our counters.

This was so fun to watch! I love getting fun ideas from your videos :)

I have an antislippery foam mat in front of the sink and in front of the stove. It helps your legs and feet when you're standing there for a long time. They're really easy to clean and waterproof

Ahhhhh I love apartment renovations! ❤

Noooo because I recently started keeping chilli sauce in my bedroom 😂 (in my defense, there are 4 flights of stairs between my room and the kitchen 💀)

Deli your building is on fire! 🧡. I’ve seen a lot of renovations of the karaoke legends apartment, and this is by far the best. What I like about it the most is that it’s very realistic to their age their interests and their budget. Well, except for the top end, coffee maker in microwave in the kitchen…😂😂. Seriously, though this is a great reno! 🧡🧡🍁🍁🍂🍂🧡🧡

Rugs under sinks and places where you'll be standing a lot are common. So youre not standing on hard floors for so long. Mine in the kitchen are some cushion

It's interesting to me to see how other people redesign spaces after I've redone them. When I renovated this apartment I flipped it upside down so that the bedrooms were on the bottom and the living space was up top. I did it because I didn't think it was fair that one bedroom got such a big balcony to itself. But now I see there are other ways to make it a shared space. 💜

I have a rug in front of my sink and one in front of my stove/oven, but not underneath. Just butted against. The one for the sink is so the floor isn't wet and gross. The one for the stove is just...I dunno, foot cushion? lol - from the U.S.

I have never read the karaoke legends household description before. Darling isn't related to either of them?! They're just a teen roommate?!

I love how this turned out, I mean the improvement is crazy!!

I love your apartment renovations I wish they could go one forever

I’ve redone this apartment several times but I love your floor plan! Works well for this unit. I’ll be sad when all the apartments are complete. Will you also renovate that huge house in San myshuno even though it’s not an apartment?

I agree in college getting ready with my friends doing our makeup together listening to music and singing was more fun than going out sometimes lol. I ate really horrible in uni but to be fair I think that’s an American uni thing bc they would just have the grossest food or it was extremely unhealthy in the cafeteria. Ah good times 😂 When you are done building this you should create families and or makeover the original onesie. You can package it up with your newcrest you are rebuilding lol.

simply awsome video, great hablilities with designing!! I loved it, i would so live in this house, in fact my dream apartament have this big windows with a great look to the city. Loved it!!

I love love love how realistic this is decorated! I feel like I’m at a good friends house. So cozy and inviting yet fun. And so much personality! I would love to see more stylized builds like this if you are up for it. 💌⭐️

I have a kitchen-specific waterproof mat under my kitchen sink. It's padded, so when I stand there endlessly washing dishes, I'm comfy 💁🏼‍♀️

In my game because I thought it was weird that Darling was a teen so I made their mom and Miko’s mom be sisters and made their husbands and other siblings so that Miko and Darling are cousins and it makes a little more sense (attending school in the city)

I live in a very very small apartment and the units in the City Living pack always make me jealous 😂 I wonder what it would be like to try and divide on one of the apartments into two separate units

You're so good at decorating for all different types of personalities!! Love this so much 😍

Lovely reno as always! Always hitting the mark

Deli your videos are so relaxing I see them like a self care routine 🥰🌸

I can’t believe I’m so early!😅absolutely loving the apartment series🫶🏼

This build is soooo good !

Just wanted to say deli looking amazing as usual. Also, I recently renovated this apartment and put the kitchen and living upstairs with one room up there and two downstairs. It actually worked very well.

Short hair on you is 👌 it honestly suits you so well, you look stunning!

OMG, I just spent an entire week renovating this apartment, , but in my city I moved the guy out, and I made this apartment just for these two queens. It was so much fun, and it's crazy because I took a similar approach to you. I love your videos as well. Lots of love from Argentina!💛💖

I do have mats under my sink/stove, but it's to lessen the load on my feet and knees standing on a tile floor 😊

Love the renovation builds!

I swear that doggo made me hit subscribe... also loooove your building idea!!

i have a bathmat running under the sink and dishwasher cause sometimes water splashes on the floor from the sink or taking dishes from the dishwasher that are still wet does get dirty but you just shake it out and put in the washing machine and its fine

Perfect way to start my morning 😊 Love you Deli!

Love your hair cut and this style. Super cute :)

Now I want to renovate all the houses as well lol. Nice one!

Bowser is so cute

I'd love it if the Sims team had content creators re-build old worlds from before they started having them build for new packs! It would be fun to see what we should have gotten with old packs. :)

I love your hair! I have a mat under the sink to protect the wood floors from water.

That was a fun reno!!

We have a rug in front of our sink. It doesn’t get too bad and when it does get dirty we throw it in the washer/dryer. It’s a decor thing but also then your standing doing dishes for however long and your feet are more cushioned.

It's funny you happen to mention the ticking clocks because I have two miniature grandfather clocks sitting on my desk at work because I enjoy the ticking: I do find it very relaxing indeed. Lol

I have a mat under my sink and stove. So when I’m cooking if things fall on the ground it’s less mess on my wood floors lol

I'm with you on the ticking clocks - I can't stand them. When I go to stay at my aunt and uncles house the room I stay in has an analogue clock and the first thing I do when I arrive is take the battery out

Deli, you can adjust the colour of any light in the game, anything from neutral white to neon purple. You should not be choosing lights based on the colour of the light they provide.

we have anti-fatigue mats under our sink and oven to cushion our feet

love ur content ‼️💗 and bowser ofc

The clutters kits are so perfect for giving builds caracter!

I have an anti-fatigue mat under my sink (it’s made of cushiony rubber).

your hair is so pretty!!! it suits you :D

Rugs under the sink or stove usually are great to prevent your floor to get groos, for example if you accidentally splash water while doing the dishes 😂

Omg how do people love the ticking clock?? It's the most anti-sleep technique to me lol

We have fatigue mats under our stove and sink. They’re amazing 😂

Deli is such a cute human!! When she started singing "gadgets and gizmos," I had the same feelings I get when I look at puppies and kittens.

My college apartments were top-notch with storage. I was so lucky, I had a big closet, and every unit came with a storage room (that could honestly be a small bedroom or office) attached to a screened in porch. I was very spoiled, AND I could have my dog! It was amazing.

idk teeny tiny table and two chairs with no windows seems pretty accurate lmaoooooo

Yup my mom has a mat under her stove (mainly cause our old dog loves to lie on it) hahaha and she has one under our sink 🤷🏻‍♀️also - she’s an extreme neat freak - so it doesn’t get messy like you’d think hahaha

As always, Bowsers snores are my everything

I immedietly tought who the hell have hot souce in their bed room? Then glance over to my table…. Oh no, thats me. I have one in my bedroom. In my defence, i live in micro apartment so…. Yeah😂

Thinking about that huge karaoke machine in the room is hilarious. Also yes, we stick the rugs under sinks here but NOT the stoves!

I was trying to find nicer dining room chairs when I moved but I settled for those plastic chairs from IKEA… they’re honestly great 🙂 Easy to clean, sturdy, and comfy!

100% agree re: ticking clock

Yet another brilliant appartment build.

In my game the guy wasn't a techy he was a writer. So strange. He doesn't dislike Penny either, he's actually engaged to her and just this morning they moved in together. Now they live the apartment you built for Penny lol. She will eventually have to live in an apartment worth 100k so they will have to move one day but not anytime soon, I hope.

We love our anti-fatigue mats at sinks and appliances.

Why didn’t they all get a their own bedrooms with Darling being a teen and the others young adults?

You look stunning with your hair half up half down! Makes me want to cut my hair to that length again though I won’t wear it near as beautifully as you do, Deli! Sending loves to you, Bowser and James!❤

deli, you look so especially pretty in this video!!
