Qube Design Collection là topic tổng hợp sản phẩm của Qube Design – một kiến trúc sư tài hoa người Canada. Các sản phẩm của anh rất đa dạng, đa phong cách: từ các tòa lâu đài tráng lệ, biệt thự trang nhã cho đến những ngôi nhà đồng quê yên bình hay căn hộ chung cư cao cấp với mỗi lot được tác giả chăm chút tỉ mỉ từng chi tiết... Theo lời creator này bộc bạch thì chính The Sims 3 đã khơi dậy nên ở anh niềm đam mê kiến trúc, là nơi để anh thỏa trí tưởng tượng và tài năng sáng tạo, vì thế những gì anh tạo ra được tái hiện hoàn hảo không khác gì ở thế giới thực.

<Special> J. K. Rawling's Irish Castle May require WA and AMB
Release: Sep 26, 2009
Lời giới thiệu:
Một tòa lâu đài nguy nga như trong các bộ phim hay các câu truyện cổ được thực hiện bởi bàn tay tài hoa của Qube Design, kiến trúc sư, chuyên gia đồ họa và lập trình viên người Canada. Đây là một sản phẩm cực kỳ đặc biệt từ Qube Design mà chắc chắn bạn sẽ không thể tìm thấy nó trên TSR như những sản phẩm khác của tác giả. Theo như lời tác giả chia sẻ thì tác giả đã bỏ ra đến 120 giờ đồng hồ để thực hiện J. K. Rawling's Irish Castle và nó đã trở nên quá lớn để có thể upload lên bất kỳ trang chia sẻ nào. Thán phục trước vẻ đẹp tráng lệ của tác phẩm này, Ev đã từng up lên chia sẻ cùng mọi người, tiếc là theo thời gian (và theo tốc độ spam chóng mặt của một số thành phần không tốt ^^), bài viết cũ có lẽ đã bị... đưa vào sọt rác. Trong lần phân hoạch cho các tác phẩm của Qube Design kỳ này (đã hứa rất lâu rồi những mãi đến giờ mới thực hiện được), Ev xin một lần nữa giới thiệu với mọi người tác phẩm hoành tráng này.
Thông điệp từ tác giả:
Hi,
I am a busy Sims3 lot designer, and the company owned by my sim is Qube Design. I've just invested 120 hours in a massive, fully optioned Sims3 castle that's too big to upload on any site LOL!
It's on a 60 x 60 lot, and includes many many custom patterns, meshes and objects. 5 bedrooms, 8 bathrooms, 2 storey library, 3 storey master suite, guest house, wine cellar, yoga studio, art studio, music room (there are 2 Sims3 pianos in the house), a 2010 BMW M3 and a 2010 Nissan 370Z in the garage and an $80,000 Jasper Johns painting in the solarium. The castle was specifically designed with J. K. Rawling's castle as a guideline so there are books everywhere. It is exquisitely decorated, colour matched (down to the HEX codes), fully optioned and extensively landscaped.
Details: $968,930 furnished $473,345 unfurnished
Special thanks to www.simsartgallery.wordpress.com for their amazing picture mods, and www.stylistsims.net for their new beautiful contemporary furniture collections. Also, great thanks to the inspiring game mods available at www.modthesims.com, especially Lemoncandy for the plant recolourings and Srikandi for the mods available in build-mode. More thanks to 'SimsLulamai' for the custom bath fittings, window awnings and new curtain meshes.
P/S: Cũng như lần trước, Ev xin nhắc lại là cùng vẻ hoành tráng của nó, file cài cũng hoành tráng không kém, tầm 50MB. Và vì hoành tráng như thế nên bản thân tòa lâu đài này rất "nặng", làm tốt khá nhiều tài nguyên cũng như mất một lượng lớn thời gian để... load. Riêng cá nhân Ev, để xoay qua xoay lại ngắm nghía trước khi quyết định xây mà Ev đã phải mất những... 5 phút để... chờ nó xoay hình xong sau mỗi lần click chuột. =)) Tòa lâu đài này dùng khá nhiều custom item không có sẵn trong bản game gốc (và cả trong bản cài) nên có thể sau khi xây xong, bạn vào sẽ phát hiện ra nó... thiếu một vài món đồ so với hình vẽ. Bởi chính Ev cũng không thể liệt kê được hết số lượng đồ đạc mà tác phẩm này sử dụng nên mọi người đành... chịu khó hy sinh một vài thứ vậy. Dù sao thì với những gì mà tác phẩm này mang lại, hãy dành cho nó một điểm 9.5 (chưa được 10, tại Ev rất... khó tính mà ^^) nhé!

X-Factor: Ultra-modern ocean front beach house in brilliant orange, suspended over it's lot. 2 bedroom, 3 bath, art studio. Fully furnished, decorated and landscaped. Perfect home for international super-model Sim.
This is my third house attempt in Sims 3, and my Sims company is called Qube Design. I have completed a few other modern homes which will be posted soon. I have also started work on a 5 lot housing development called 'Noble Ridge', featuring medium and small lot baronial style homes with rock and timber exteriors of a by-gone era and contemporary floor plans. All my homes feature beautifully designed interiors in sophisticated colour palettes, and the yards are all extensively landscaped with integrated lighting. Please review my work and let me know if you like them!

This beautiful small lot craftsman is the second home I designed, and has 3 bedrooms, 1 bath, main-floor family room and upstairs den. The attic could be finished for another bedroom. I designed it as the perfect home for a single parent with kids. My hometown is filled with houses like this, and this is the kind of house my Mom would have raised my sisters and I in. It's fully furnished, accessorized and decorated, and the garden is filled with rose bushes.
