Auto Repair Dealership and Repair Center with all of the tools, garage doors that lift up, a car lift, welders, air compressor, car wash, etc. Handheld tools, and greasy clothes, etc.

Construction and DIY materials and tools, heavy equipment, tool belts, handheld tools.

Dental and Opthamologist offices and necessary equipment and tools.

A Club House for our clubs with reception area, large meeting room with a large white board for games and an open back yard.

Real furnishings, more food or decorative items to set around. Maybe a music player that tunes into radio stations.

Please no more "blinkers" :P

I know we've got Space but its not very good is it really
I got all excited when they announced it thinking Star Trek and we got something well dunno what space movies those designers watched but they certainly weren't ones like Aliens , Trek (movies) , Lost in Space, 2001 or The Day the Earth Stood Still
YoWorlds space theme is more like Wall-E

Lord of the Rings. Hobbits, Elfs, Dwarfs, Orcs and all the places. Imagine all the different homes, even a Mount Doom. There could be masses of costumes. I think there could be something for everyone in this theme.

Mexican Riviera - a wonderful Mexican or Central American theme would be a lot of fun!

Summertime/Outdoors - we seriously need more patio and outdoor furniture like loungers, picnic stuff, nice benches, etc.

Bohemian Chic - something with a "gypsy" feeling to it! Think Stevie Nicks and traveling vardos with lots of colorful decorations!

I have so many you're going to get bored, but here goes:

More historical themes, such as:
• Prehistoric (with dinosaurs & cavemen) - maybe set it up so we'd have to figure out how to make fire or invent the wheel?
• Victorian Era
• The Great Depression
• U.S. Civil War
• Peter the Great’s Russia (or Catherine the Great’s Russia)
• World War II/1940s (maybe with swing dancing & big band-type music, women taking on the jobs of men in factories or whatever?)
• Edwardian Period
• Elizabethan England
• The Puritans in New England (maybe around the time of the U.S. Thanksgiving)
• American Revolution
• The Napoleonic Era
• The Renaissance — with examples of the art of the day along with the usual costumes and furniture
• The period of 1910-18 — meaning WWI and right before it — the costumes & architecture & furniture were distinctively different from what came immediately before & after
• Classic Hollywood — with movie star trailer, makeup room (with classic movie-related costumes, facial features & makeup – such as Frankenstein, Gone With the Wind, etc.), plus a movie premiere, the Hollywood Bowl, Hollywood sign and a movie-style nightclub.
• The Aztecs
• The California Gold Rush
• The journey west — with a wagon train, perhaps?

Some random theme ideas:
• A zoo
• An aquarium
• A natural history museum
• An art museum – perhaps with famous paintings & sculptures we could place in it? Or even a series of famous art museums — the Guggenheim, the Louvre, the Hermitage, the Prado, British Museum, etc.
• A shopping mall, open-air & multi-level, with those big maps, underground parking, food court, movie theater, little pushcart stands selling jewelry, etc., plus, of course, stores of different kinds.
• A sports stadium (possibly with different sports that could be played there — soccer, football, baseball, basketball, tennis, gymnastics, track&field… or it could even include a concert by a big-name “Yo” rockstar!)
• A multi-area park that we could landscape and develop, with fountains, benches, gazebos, pushcart vendors, skating rink, or a rideable carousal we could purchase.
• A cruise ship – perhaps with famous tourism spots off of the ship?
• An office — frankly, this sounds boring to me, but someone might like it.
• A hotel — years ago, there was one of those 2- or 3-day-only specials called Hotel Chic, which had great furniture, but no actual hotel setup that I can recall. Let’s have a grand hotel with a magnificent lobby, check-in desk, gift shop (where specialty items could be sold), elevators, hallways, ballroom, exercise room, pool, restaurant, rooms, penthouse, etc. Costumes could include bellboy costumes, exercise guru getup, plush bathrobes & slippers, etc.
• A college or university campus, with dormitories and classroom buildings. Cap & gown, of course.
• Frank Lloyd Wright home – maybe Taliesin
• Homes/buildings by other famous architects, such as Sir Christopher Wren, Mimar Sinan, Louis Henry Sullivan, Ludwig van der Rohr, leoh Ming Pei, Oscar Niemeyer, Frank Gehry, Le Corbusier, Stanford White, Santiago Calatrava and so on.
• Art Deco — my personal favorite
• Art Nouveau
• Bauhaus

Areas of the world not yet covered:
• Polar ice caps - maybe with scientists exploring the wilderness
• Panama Canal
• Scandinavian countries, either separately or as a group
• Ireland
• Scotland
• Holland — wooden shoes!
• Hungary
• Iceland and/or Greenland
• Argentina
• Austria
• Bermuda -- maybe with a "triangle" where ships could get lost?
• Chile
• Ethopia
• Gibraltar
• Haiti
• Indonesia
• Jamaica
• Korea
• Mexico (or did we have that already? -- for a while there were so many new themes I couldn't keep up!)
• Switzerland
• Venezuela
• Moscow or St. Petersburg
• Nepal/Tibet — said to be one of the most beautiful areas in the world
• Tourism hotspots: Virgin Islands, Cyprus or the Isle of Crete, etc.

Areas of Canada:
• Vancouver
• Victoria Island
• Nova Scotia
• Prince Edward Island (perhaps with an Anne of Green Gables theme?)
• The Yukon (maybe with Royal Canadian Mounted Police?)

Cities/states/regions of the US:
• Alaska
• Maine - with fishermen setting off to sea
• New Jersey (a la the way it's depicted in the movies, perhaps?)
• The Great Midwest – with farms, rolling hills, church potluck dinners, square dancing
• The Ozarks or Appalachian mountains
• Cape Cod
• Coney Island
• Long Island or perhaps The Hamptons (for an ultra-rich environment)
• Monument Valley — perhaps with movie westerns interpolated into it.
• Mountains, with cabins and so on, perhaps a mountain-climbing game?
• The Great Northwest — loggers and so on
• St. Louis (right on the Mississippi River)
• Wisconsin — has unique architecture for its houses and barns, plus tons of interesting tourist attractions that could perhaps be incorporated. Google Wisconsin tourism and you’ll see what I mean.
• Austin, Texas (with a music festival perhaps?)
• Savannah, Georgia
• Park City, Utah (with a Sundance movie festival & skiing-type of theme)
• Kansas City, which has more fountains than any other city in the world — it’s actually a truly beautiful city. Just go to Google Images and search for “Kansas City fountains.” Also KC is known for its unique home architecture — houses made of large rough blocks of gray stone, with wide wraparound porches, and sometimes with red roofs. The interiors are full of wood beams and leaded glass windows — really special part of the U.S. that almost no one outside that area even knows about.

Literary Themes:
• Jane Austen
• Jack London
• Russian authors, like Dostoyevsky, Chekhov, Pasternak, Gogol, Tolstoy
• H.G. Wells — The Time Machine
• Victor Hugo’s France
• Jules Verne’s world — under the sea, trip to the moon, etc.
• James Hilton’s Lost Horizon
• Dr. Seuss’ world — that could be crazy fun!
• Charlotte’s Web
• Babar
• Curious George
• Where the Wild Things Are
• Peter Rabbit
• Madeline
• Eloise — at the Plaza Hotel in New York!
• Little House books
• Also, maybe do something in the spirit of classic cartoons — Bugs Bunny or Disney or something along those lines. Not technically literature, but I didn’t know where else to put it.
• Agatha Christie — maybe with a mini-hidden object game, and then you might be able to purchase the objects once you find them!

Thanks, Carrie. As I'm sure you can tell, I've been thinking about this for such a long time! I'd be happy if they did any of my ideas, but secretly, I hope they do Kansas City. It's actually one of the most beautiful places I've ever been, with hundreds of fountains everywhere and this unique and lovely architecture and interior design. I've been dreaming of being able to do a KC house almost from the beginning. It's not an obvious choice, but the look of it is so special, I think people would go for it.

Take a look at the fountains:

Pet ..
I recognize some of those items one house is very much like the multi storey haunted house and that stained glass window I'm sure I have one just like (or similar) in one of my romantic houses
I do like the staircases though, most of the stairs in the YoHouses .... less said the better I try to cover them up LoL

I realize I got kind of carried away on the whole KC thing, but it's an unknown gem in the middle of our country. And no, I don't live there. ;)
