'''Blueprint Mode''' is a tool introduced in [[The Sims 3/Patch 42|patch 42]] of ''[[The Sims 3]]''. It allows players to lay down a series of premade rooms to form a floor plan, which can then be realized into a complete, fully-featured house. Blueprints can be previewed without saving them, allowing players to plan out the design of their lot.
 
With ''[[The Sims 3: Seasons|Seasons]]'' installed, players are given the "Cabin" blueprint style to use. Additionally, [[The Sims 3/Patch 55|patch 55]] adds [[Swimming pool|pool]] blueprints for players to place.

==Functionality==
Rooms can be placed on any flat, empty terrain, or over empty floor tiles. They can also be placed over columns, unless it contains a [[swimming pool]] or [[fountain]]. Once a room has been finalized, it can no longer be moved around or rotated as a whole, and will function like a regular room. The rooms in the blueprint catalog can be filtered by [[custom content]], [[TheSims3.com|store items]], or by [[content pack]].
 
Rooms that are placed next to each other with an overlapping shared wall will be adjoined. Doors and windows located on these walls will be kept, unless it conflicts with a wall object (such as a painting or toilet). If a door and a window conflict, the door will override the window. Objects that lose to another conflicting object will be sold or moved to the family inventory.
 
The eyedropper and [[Create a Style]] tools, as well as item catalog categories in buy and build modes, are disabled when blueprint mode is enabled.
