Build Mode Showcase: Home Gym + Gaming Room + Baby Bedroom
Hello everyone! Léa here to bring you new build mode objects!
As you may have noticed, we like to create trendy furniture and Pinterest-worthy interiors for our showcases. However, most people don’t have this kind of decor at home! For today’s post, the rooms will be less about decor trends and more about functionality!
Home Gym
Do your Parafolks keep telling everyone that they like to work out? Building a gym for them seems like the best way to help them reach their goals! Chloé recently added two brand new gym equipment to the game: a treadmill for cardio and a bench press to build muscles!
A spacious room with gym equipment and sport-related clutter (the free weights are currently not usable and will only be used for decoration).
New motivational wall art featuring the famous Mustache Man who used to be (apparently?) a famous bodybuilder!
POV: you’re 18yo and convinced your parents to let you use the basement as your studio apartment
We started to implement more affordable and common decor and furniture for your Parafolks: for this room, we chose iconic affordable furniture, which you can easily find in most stores.
As always when I’m building in Paralives, I just put food everywhere to make it look more homey!
Chloé had a lot of fun creating a ‘’GMRZ Gear’’ desk and chair. Please note that the double monitor pc is not yet implemented in the game so we used TVs as placeholders!
Sliding Doors are arriving in Paralives! This one model is intended to look like a closet, but we will introduce other models soon!
Baby’s Room
The reality of having a baby is all the small things that are required to take care of them. Welcoming a miniature Parafolk is a ton of work and now you will be able to create a cozy room for them! More objects for babies and toddlers will be added before the release of the game!
A spacious room with a new crib, a changing table, a potty chair, and a high chair! In the corner, you can also spot a new pair of sliding doors for a more classic look
Our collection of children's decor is growing! Can you tell Chloé had a ton of fun making floor toys for the little ones?
That’s it for today, more will be coming soon since we are creating and integrating more objects for the game every day! We hope that this new content gave you many ideas for what you will create for your Parafolks 💕
Take care!

i like the baby room its cute
Yeees I love the "affordable" style. Please add more stuff that isn't luxury or fancy in anyway. We need some run down starter places for Paras who don't have a lot of money.
Love seeing baby/children stuff. Hoping in the future we might get prams and buggy's to take babies and toddlers out and about in.
I love the children apartment so much!!! 😍
I'm an actor and getting created in the game, so you will see me working out a lot!
I love this! 🤩 Somehow missed this post, so didn’t see it until now 🙈 So many good objects 😍
Love the 18 year old's "apartment"...that takes me back to my first studio haha.
Also I literally have that moon lamp in real life!! 😍
I love all of this but I think my favorite thing is the starry wallpaper in the nursery. I am going to use that EVERYWHERE.
AHHHH I MISSED THIS THAT WILL TEACH ME TO GET PNEUMONIA
the baby room is so cute!
Something I have noticed in your rooms which I’m sure you’re working on, is the fact that the rooms don’t appear to have ceilings. The outdoor light is coming through the ceiling - but again I’m sure you’re working on that already :)
Good eye! Our interior lighting system still has room for improvements so that's why like to remove the ceiling and use the sun as our main light when showcasing assets for now!
I just can’t get over the cute and cozy feel to this game, you’re doing such good things!
Question: is the blue baby thing in the middle of the room usable? I have no idea what it is called but it would sound like a cool usable object for babies (you know, so they're not limited in the crib *side eye*). AND THAT CLOWN IN THE BABY'S ROOM. Veeery suspicious! But I loved every single item made. It looks so so good and complete!
Haha, I agree about the clown! Regarding the blue baby thing, it's not interactable for now but it could become later on
Absolutely gorgeous
Oooooh! I hope there will be even more Anime Stuff?! I love the children bedroom, it is realy beautiful! You guys do such a great job! Thank you!
Not the waifu pillow XD I really like these rooms. They're much more my style, they have clutter, they don't look too perfect, and they look overall messier. The catalog is really getting interesting and full of possibilities ! My dream baby room has frogs everywhere, and you know, I could sort of see that happen now, just by slightly adjusting the color scheme and with a handful of frog-themed plushies and toys, I'm there :P The sliding doors are also awesome. I like that they're not THE CLOSET (looking at you, That Other Game™ 4), but can be used FOR A CLOSET. It's the kind of flexibility I have come to expect from Paralives, so once again, you did it, Léa !
By the way, an idea came to mind: what if all furniture or other decorative items were immediately in boxes when they were placed, but when you clicked, the box would instantly open? A touch of realism, perhaps
Love this!! Also, just saying.... Sims 2 IKEA stuff pack was the best and most useful furniture stuff pack ever 😅 so definitely the "everyday" furniture is a great idea! Love the sliding doors also 👀 Will they function as closets?
Not the waifu anime body pillow 💀😂 love it
These are so cute you guys! Just a question on how parapeople navigate around messy rooms like the game room?
Okay. The wifu pillow gave me all the giggles! Haha. These are so cute, though. Makes me excited to make items, too!
That nursery is so cute. NOT helping with my baby fever right now. But I'm so excited to get my hands on this game aaa. Thanks for the cute update!!
"the free weights are currently not usable"... Love the meaning behind this 😁. So you thought about making them as usable items! I can understand that you need to priorize the Features, but I really adore that you think about such Details and the Future of the Game and what we user might want.
I LOVE all the clutter objects, makes the rooms feel less empty and sterile.
THE BODY PILLOWS 💀
Everything is so cozy!!
the game is becoming more and more truly complete I can't wait to play
nice
it's very well
I have the exact gamer chair on my room, paralives…are you SPYING ON ME?
No! Or are we 👀
Love the dakimakura LOL
I love the messy and distressed clutter. I adore that sun rug in the nursery, it looks like I will continue to spend forever in build mode. Love it Paralives Team!
Interesting, dakimakura. And that clown in the baby room...Will it come to life and be creepy during Spooky seasons?
Haha, that would be cool!
The baby’s room just looks so so cute 🥹
I LOVE that you included the moon lamp into Paralives!!! So excited to see all the little details of a home come together with all the updates. :)
Ngl, when I saw it I said "BODY PILLOW!!!" I hope there's lore/story behind the character! Not a request, more of a suggestion, a long cat plush/body pillow would be nice... Otherwise I'll need to learn to mesh. 😅 Joking aside, everything you've shown looks fantastic, I'm really happy about the sliding doors too, so versatile! I'll have to check the images in more detail later today! EDIT: Character seems like Hatsune Miku-like, maybe a virtual idol or maybe a magical girl in an anime? I'm really curious!
Haha! Chloé's goal was to create a generic idol but it's true that she looks like Hatsune Miku
That mustache man poster 🥵
The Anime Body pillow killed me dhsusbs /positive! I have a question though: is this actually a basement room with a window or is this Not something you're planning on doing? I'm Just cautious because in the Pictures there's Windows and that's be super exciting!
Thank you!! We are planning on working on basements before the release of the game and we aim for them to support windows if the basement is halfway into the ground!
Loving the clutter in this game. I'm so excited to decorate
Wow! I’m blown away by your attention to detail. Great work
These all look fantastic. Every time you guys release a new preview post it just gets better and better. So many fun little details with great decor in the baby's room and I love the sliding doors.
I want to live in the baby-room! 🥺 So cozy! Might have to settle for stealing the colur palette, since I'm sadly not a Para. 😔
⚠️ New lore alert ⚠️
You guys I am absolutely screaming. This is incredible!!! The kettlebells, the body pillow, the play mat, the SLIDING DOORS! The noodle cup on the tippy-top shelf of the bookshelf LOL. Everything is impeccably placed. Everything feels so real. Is the round lamp in the baby's room the moon???? <3 <3 Thank you SO MUCH for your hard work! I JUST NOTICED THE MAZE ON THE BACK OF THE CEREAL BOX. Wow. I *cannot* wait to get in there and start building. Wow. Wow! Thank you!!!!
Also I would love to know more about the character on the body pillow haha! who is she?? what is the popular anime in the Paraworld?
Thank you so much for your attention to detail and focus on variety! Everything in this post is amazing but I especially love the gamer room! That anime body pillow kills me.😂
Can we take a moment to appreciate the lighting system! So immersive and realistic💖💖💖
Great rooms!! I'm looking forward to the capacity available for design builds in Paralives and I can't wait for when it will be 'hands on'!!! 😄
I would love if certain items caused a reaction in other paras when coming to someone else's home or room for the first time. Like depending on personality, some paras might be impressed or unimpressed by expensive furniture. The anime girl body pillow is such a fun touch and I'd love to see different reactions in paras to such a specific item like that!
That would be really fun to see!
Cannot wait to customise to this level of detail! It’s incredible, please keep up the good work!
Those Anime Body pillows are genius! Does this mean we can download pictures onto cushions as well?
Maybe with modding
This looks great! Thank you for all the work you are putting in to giving us a great game. I really like the ability to place/stack objects on top of the moving boxes. Love these rooms!
You guys take such care to provide lathe character in these builds and it just gets me hyped
I swear. This game is improving with every update. I can't wait to rub this awesomeness in Sims 4’s face when it comes out.
I absolutely love the amount of clutter there is. Though would they still be able to walk around? Interact with the objects? Like cuddling with the body pillow that's on the bed?
Most clutter items won't be interactable, at least at first. It would be great to add more and more interactivity as we go!
the design on these is phenomenal!
Okay I really wanted to comment somethig about the rooms (they look beautiful by the way!) but I'm just so distracted by Patreon's new interface and I don't think I like it lol
Thank you! Hehe, it might take me sometime to get used to the new interface too!
I love the floor play mat in the baby's room
I absolutely love the different furniture styles and I always love seeing item like the treadmill which will serve for some gameplay! super excited for this game, keep on doing the awesome work that you guys do! much love
AND ALSO loving loving loving the clutter items as well! so glad we're getting clutter of all sizes, from big cardboard boxes to smaller items, it's so so appreciated
This is absolutely amazing guys! You are literal wizards. I can’t believe the game is coming along so well!! 💜
The body pillow 😂 you guys crack me up. Also really loving the starry wallpaper in the baby room! ✨
Beautiful work!
Beautiful! I hope to see more features for the Build Mode as well as more rooms in the future! Maybe a home theatre or a home studio for photography, music, art?
I'm obsessed!
I can finally live out my weeb dream
I’m in loveeeee! I’m so ready to give my money now for a pre-order!!!!! 🫨
Wow looks amazing!
