Advice on a modular town house.

[Lothos]

I don't have any of the fancy modular buildings, god willing I'd like to get some one day but the wife will probably frown alot, however; I am currently attempting to build a 3 story town house with a basement, so 4 story I guess. I'm using a 32x32 plate because I want to throw in a street scene all that jazz. the majority of the building is white, as thats the primary color I have save for black, but that's on a space ship moc I've been building forever.

So I guess my question would be, would brown rounded 2x2's work for the corner pieces? I'm going white, brown, white brown, etc. I'll try to get some pictures soon.

The basement will be something special I think, the first story is the entry way, as I gave it a forward facing car port, I lack the patience to make a garage door, but due to recent events I might give it a try, back on track, the second story will be the kitchen/nook/living room while the third will be two bedrooms and probably 2 restrooms. I used 1x4 brown tiles to simulate a classic wooden floor look and am adding in decoration as I can.

So in a roundabout way I'm asking, is white/brown a good combination lookswise? I'll try to get a pic or two up make it easier if people saw the darn thing.

Do we really need wives?

Pics would be great! White and brown wouldn't look bad but, gives me, personally, a country feel. Maybe light bluish grey and white? Not sure why but, that, to me, has a city look. Best of luck on your house.

Oh, and you said the basement will be special? Maybe have a Lego city built in?

the thing I did was I put bricks over the edge of a lego baseplate and attached the over edge area onto the walls where needed, and have the walls of the lower floor support the baseplates as like it is the cieling of the lower floor. the downstairs walls of each rool should have flat tiles on the top where the baseplate will lie.
