I love it! You know what it reminds me of? Those nice arches in Sims 1 Superstar that they used on the big movie lots (and saw a lot of overuse in my big houses). Think thoses were all cream coloured, but still these evoke them, in my memory at least... Thanks for these, HL - I shall now proceed to overuse 'em all over again

I'm surprised after 7 years that there are still discoveries of "Lost and Found" content!

I *LOVE* lost and found stuff! Wondering though, is the plumbob on top actually 3-dimensional or is it just a picture?
Not actually evil.

I must put this in my stately Uni buildings (that I have yet to build). One little arch has inspired me to build a new university.

I don't suppose they made matching windows and doors? If they didn't, maybe I'll just have to learn how to make architectural add-ons. Unless someones else beats me to it. (Feel free, anybody.)

Very nice! I also like how it matches the Industrio brick walls so well.

Wow. Crazy to think these L&F items are still popping up. Is The Sims 3 the same way?

It is, truly, a thing of beauty. Now if only there were matching arches as window trim...

Thanks for these HL, they are really nice....

There are some rather nice brick-framed windows at 'Around the Sims 2'

I don't know why, but an image of a rather industrial-looking door popped into my head, with a rather distressed look and big metal hinges/hardware that match the trim on the arch/Industrio Brick walls. Not that I ever really build anything industrial-looking, myself, because I suck at urban/industrial-looking stuff, but the image popped into my head.

Or maybe an iron-looking door or something with iron trim on it, something to go with the game's wrought-iron stairs and fences. That would probably look nice with the brick, maybe to create an older but sort of high-end building, like an old hotel. Although I guess that wouldn't match the trim on the walls/arch. But perhaps the metal trim could be removed?

*laughs* Don't mind me; I'm just thinking "out loud." Whatever you come up with, I'm sure it will be fabulous. :D

I'm mostly found on (and mostly upload to) Tumblr these days because, alas, there are only 24 hours in a day.
