Ancient Civilization Theme

There’s something to be said for simplicity, and that’s probably why I like the Ancient Civilization theme so much! It works with such a basic palette, but looks so striking. See what I mean?

 

 

The flooring and walls are a lovely muted gray/grayish blue color. This works perfectly with the rich wooden tables and chest, and the deep purple upholstery. The bright red shields on the wall are the ideal accent in this lovely, understated room.

Now, I have to say that Elwin and I don’t exactly agree on how wonderful this theme is. I LOVE it. His comment? “It needs more color.” Some designers just don’t appreciate subtlety.

What do you think of this theme, friends?

    I have some of this theme, but not all of it and now I know why. I don’t like the furniture in it :-( . I actually put the pool, which is not named well seeing as how you cant even go in it, but rug isn’t a good name either because you can’t walk over it or put anything on it, in my zodiac theme room and it looks good in there. Guess I don’t need to worry about completing this room though. *Robyn

    I’d like it better if the furnishings had more blue in them and the wood wasn’t so dark.

    @psalm11911 I think the ” pool you’re speaking of is a RUG, sorry I don’t mean to rain on your parade though . I actually like this theme but probably won’t use it as a theme for one of the numerous rooms in my pet’s rooms . too doodles, ~Mrs.DCriss

    I like it! Although I probably won’t end up using that as a room theme

        I LOVE it!!

        • Alphabeta says:

          I like the walls and the floor, but why is the pool so close to the bed??? And the table and chest seem a bit dark. I have the chair and the walls.

          • Confused?...Now Sunflower265 says:

            Oh, and I agree with you Alphabeta. I have one of the sheilds on the wall and the pool.

          • Northwestern...one problem says:

            My problem is that I once bought the pool, and found out that unlike the pool in the Persian Palace theme, your pet cannot sit in it

          • sophielise says:

            WHERE did you get items from that room theme!!!

      • Azula Tiger says:

        I just like the pool. Thats all. ~Azula Tiger >^..^<

        • Moonstar says:

          It doesn’t need more color, it was made in Rome, what do you expect, them to go to a Michaels and get paint supplies? The furniature design and colors is very accurate to what was actually made in this time period. I really do love this theme, the colors arn’t overwelming like in the Egyptian theme. :) -Moonstar◙◙◙

          • sophielise says:

            Finally! Someone else who cares about how historically accurate something is! I LOVE ancient Rome, so this theme is totally for me! :)

          • sophie says:

            But seriously, the table wasn’t very accurate. The ancient Romans reclined on couches around the table, not sat on chairs. :o(

          • Rainbow Rain (Grace) says:

            LOL Moonstar. I like the pool, but your pet can’t sit in it, Northwestern? That’s strange. I have none of this theme, I don’t think I’ve ever even seen it! My history teacher would love all these themes, the Egyptian, this one, and the Persian. And I agree, the Egyptian theme should have less tan! LOL. Egypt was always known for being wealthy, why not show it? But whatever, this theme is nice! It’s strange I never have seen any of it, not even in trading. Hmm. ~~Rainbow Rain

      i agree with elwin! this is just… blah! you may add me if you like: pikachu7777

      • December Stillness says:

        I agree with Moonstar all the way. Since it is very obviously based on Ancient Rome, you can’t expect them to go to a craft store and get colors? Those who say this is ”blah” I guess don’t understand the real beauty in this room theme. :( :) -DS■■■

    • Wolfgirl22 says:

      I totally agree!:) XD

    • crazyforcats says:

      I love it! I agree with Hailey. ~:: cfc~~crazyforcats~~ :: $

    • Ruby the Phoenix~♥ says:

      Yeh, I know. Missing the suit of armor and needs more color. Love the items, but when you put them together, it doesn’t look right. Ruby the Phoenix~♥
