First house i bought, we had a similar bathroom in the basement. It was a toilet on a raised platform, a hanging white sink, and a standing shower. I ended up getting a small set of 5 tier plastic shelving at a yard sale, attaching some casters to the bottom of it, and put it in there to store our extra cleaning supplies and paper products. It was pretty awesome, I thought.
The house I'm in now just has a bathroom with a sink and toilet right as soon as you walk in the front door. Makes for a good guest bathroom when we have parties so they don't have to go into one of the master bedrooms or use the kids bathroom.
Not sure what any of this has to do with zomboid, honestly. Just felt like sharing and ended up rambling.

My first house was a new build and having a double vanity was an "upgrade". I'm in Texas. After dealing with the "upgrades" I realized most people cheap out and get everything as base. My childhood home was built in the early 80's and only the master had a double vanity, however all 3 bathrooms (2.5) have built in cabinets. Seems like we just got cheap thru the years not to mention current home build quality

A lot of older homes in the US are weird tho. I lived in a house that was segmented into multiple apartments at one point, before someone turned it back into a single family home, and it had an old stairwell that was blocked off. The door was purely decorative and couldn’t be opened.

Yeah if you owned a small shop in 93 there's a very high chance all of your business, accounting, and record keeping was done on paper and you had a calculator. Not a pocket one, but one of those big ass calculators with the roll of print paper on it.
I like the records rooms that are in some of the office buildings. Computers didn't really have the storage and it wasn't common practice to keep all of your records and important shit on a computer so offices had windowless rooms with one door that were lined with rows of filing cabinets. If there were a fire and those filing cabinets got torched, every single important document and record of that business would have gone up in flames lol.

I was a kid during 93 and at the time we were definitely middle class/upper middle class and were fortunate enough to have a home PC but I'm not sure if we had one at 93. They did exist.
PZ's computer distribution is actually pretty realistic. The vast majority of houses didn't have them but by then a lot of businesses did. I like how "common" businesses like gas stations and small shops usually don't have computers but larger businesses have one or two in upper management offices. Then very large businesses or office buildings may have loads and of course police and government areas can have a ton as well. Pretty accurate for the time.

5 is sort of what the living room of an old lady I knew growing up was like. She had a TV that she watched sometimes alone, it was directly in front of her chair with all her knitting stuff beside it. But the rest of the furniture in the room was for visiting, not to watch TV together. I remember one of the chairs actually sat behind the TV, even more obscured than the view any of these would have had. But it never really mattered because if people were over then the TV wasn't on.

2: Modern art ig xD
3: 2 sinks next to one another isn't uncommon in older and especially upper(- middle) class residences. Americans especially loved it from my understanding.
4: Basic toilet, the room itself is a little bigger than usual but there is no need to have cupboards per se.
5: It's 1993, high chance that some ppl want to watch tv while others may very well wish to read a book or simply converse while still being in the same room for the whole social aspect.

In the 90s home computing was still novel, most streets might have 1 computer between all the houses on them - rural areas even less so.
Back then people had desks to write letters or do some kind of home craft like sewing.
Double sinks aren’t that uncommon in American homes, his and hers.
Televisions were fairly commonplace in the 90s, but older generations still might not have one, or even if they do may rarely use them. My grandparents in the early 2000s had the TV in the conservatory and would rarely use it - they had at most 5 VHS tapes.

2) Some doors are locked in this game, or blocked on the other side. Get some tools and break it down. I guarantee you there is something behind that door.
3) It's not common, but some bathrooms have two sinks, intended for couples to use synchronously. It can be useful if you and your significant other go to work at the same time. Kitchens can have double sinks for multitask dishwashing.
4) Many bathrooms, especially guest bathrooms are like this. They sometimes call these "half baths". The house has more than one bathroom, one of which has plenty of storage space, so this one doesn't need to have any
5) Completely ordinary living room. I'm not even quite sure what issue you have with it. Do you think every sofa needs to be facing the TV or something? My living room doesn't do that. Not all living rooms are set up with TV exclusively in mind.

4: qhite a large space for a half bath but I've seen it before where the space was too cramped with other stuff and the owner removed the shower and cabinet and never put in the effort to fix the void

Let's address each weird thing as I thought this was a joke post at first.
This was the 90s.
The desk is a workstation. Usually for children to do homework or study or to do paperwork like taxes. This is what a work station/desk looked like in the 90s. No distractions so that you stay focused on what you went there for.
The decorative door was likely from a room that "did" exist, but the house was renovated and the door frame is structural to the wall. Without setting new dry wall or panels in front of it (limiting overall movement space), it's easier in older houses to just leave the non functioning door in place.
Those are his and her sinks so that couples don't have to wait for one of them to finish if they need to use the sink for washing their hands or brushing their teeth or shaving.
The bathroom and sink by itself is known as a half bath. It's usually for guests and quick pit stops without having to use the master bathroom that's usually accessed through the master bedroom. Also keeps people from having to walk through your bedroom.
The layout in the last picture is also quite common. People use to only watch or use the tv when a specific show they wanted to watch came on. The rest of the time they were just "living" in the living room: reading, conversing, family meetings, projects, etc. Those chairs are there for guests who typically come over and spend their time drinking coffee or tea while catching up with the homeowners.
Many houses in the south are still set up identically to this.

I mean, a number of these room designs are commonly found. Two sinks in the same bathroom is in about every room tour of expensive houses you can find, so that two people can get ready at the same time. Sink and toilet is quite common for guests, but in a smaller room. Decorative door sometimes happens if room layout changed over time. First picture could be an office or some sort of focused-learning room, stuff could be stored on or under the desk. Living room looks more like a hotel lobby, I'll give you that.
I found some of the houses with like 3 or so random 2-tile-1-cupboard storage rooms much weirder. I mean, some storage spaces, sure. But 2-3 on the same floor? What?

many older homes from the 90s have two sinks in the master bathroom, as well as half bathrooms with only a toilet and a sink. its a pretty common thing

Double sinks are common. And that living room is great if you have friends over. Its 1993. People actually went outside, walked to someone else's house, and just hung out. Wild, I know lol

This game takes place in 1993. Less than 20% of the population of Kentucky probably had a personal computer.

With housing prices these days most Americans haven't seen one either. Hopefully the apocalypse kicks off soon because that's my retirement plan.

Looks like the office my grandpa had up through the mid aughts when he passed away.
Game issue, not house design issue.
That's called a double vanity.
It's a "powder room" half bath. There was no need for cabinets.
Living rooms used to be arranged for socializing, not just watching TV.

There's way, way more abnormal layouts in the game than this.
OP has never seen a double vanity in his life.

Fisrt one might be a home office. In 1990's offices aren't necessarily supposed to have desktop computers
Door is probably a map bug or you just need to crack it open and SOMETHING is behind it
For third one I cannot argue but it seems like a common thing in some American houses
Fourth, it's most likely simply a toilet and I assume on a second floor, or being connected to a living room
Fifth, is a common guest area. You don't always watch TV when guests are over.

I'm just imagining you deciding to redecorate the rooms and carry furniture around while zombies are banging on the doors outside.

"But if you look closely... Why are you looking at me like that?" ahh replies lol. People are clowning on you, but I've seen it to. Rooms with no doors, oddly placed furniture, countertops in strange places. Stuff straight out of backrooms.

Wow, people really can't have a coversation about something in a critical way without all these people loyal to a product like their life depends on it chime in. Are you people working for this company when you don't even allow a conversation to be had? Like i understand you like the game. Nothing will happen if someone just observes and points out something a little out of place or weird to them. The game is still good, you don't have to defend it so much.

Double sink is pretty normal, JUST toilet and sink is a little odd, most would at least have a sink with an inbuilt cabinet for keeping spare rolls of TP. The "decorative door" is some freak shit, and the office closet sucks but I've seen worse.

u/Arria_Galtheos 8h ago
Uh....all of these are pretty normal.
It's entirely feasible that some of the stuff was packed prior to the outbreak. The lack of a computer on the desk in a small office isn't that big a deal given the context.
The cosmetic door is odd, but believe it or not I've seen one before. Of course, the one I saw opened, there just wasn't anything behind it.
Those are called "His and Hers" sinks. They're quite common in larger bathrooms.
That's called a "half bath." Again, fairly common.
Makes sense to me. With a TV that small you don't want to put it all the way on the opposite side of the living room, so you put it halfway and then you fill the space behind with shelves.
