More slots for housing items please oh please oh please please please

Just instance the house floors allowing them for large 600 each floor instance medium 200 and small 150.

Large Technically have 2 floors, unless they are going to remove the balchony thing that is inside the main floor on large, would be great if we could get rid of that as well.

EDIT: That way you can also adjust the lightning and more things different on each floor

The awkward layout of the mansion is 50% of why I want to move to the medium I want. The upstairs and the massive beams.

if you think a small is fine with 200 items, then you haven't decorated a small properly, let alone an apartment at 100 items.

What takes up the most amount of items to build from these photos?

There's no such standard as "decorate properly". How a house gets decorated is up to the owner's personal taste and desires.

I've seen plenty of FC rooms, apartments and small houses decorated just fine within the item limits (or even much less).

You might want to go for more elaborate builds but not everyone does.

The drink dispenser wall and the faux window wall more likely

Drink dispense is about 10, Window wall I am guessing is around 40 items depending what what was used for the water and backdrop.

Also...note the custom ceiling which is like what 9 Flooring mats for a small I think? or is it 12?

That’s another solution then, SE can and should be introducing these items as singular item, so we don’t have to spend 40 items just to have a backdrop wall.

Probably some floated beds above as well so you don't clip through the false ceiling. I wish there was collision on all items so you don't have to do that. ;n;

Aye though the more expensive/less item intensive solution is to use eastern ponds.
Imagine if we could remove pillars and adjust ceiling height/remove chandeliers?

(puts that on his christmas list)

Currently I move from medium Goblet to large Shirogane and I don't know, I feel like it's so spacious and more breathable than medium. To be fair I'm not into furniture glitching like putting 20 furnitures only to make refrigerator, but it feels more space to walk around :) (I miss my Roegadyn flexing view tho, instead I have 2 middies flirting view)

My complaint probably just large outdoor item limit is too few, I can't put some lightning because of it...

I feel that I could do cutest stuff in my small house. I will need to cover floors to make it look appealing, and that's sad :( very sad.

Heh, I chuckle when I see something like this. As bad as it may be now (especially for large houses), it actually used to be worse, believe it or not. IIRC, in Stormblood, SE doubled the furnishing limit from where it was to what we have now. Imagine trying to fill a large with only 200 furnishings. XD

I would imagine at the very least an extra 50-100 would go a long way for mediums and larges. I'd be happy with just that.

Honestly The majority of this could be fixed if we were permitted to "drag" the walls in and out and thus make the space smaller or slightly different shapes.

Pillars in my large are my bane.

I don't understand how you used 200 with this build? What's taking so much item space? It looks way less item dense than this build of mine(for example), and this uses only 177 items.

Anyway, while I'd certainly like more slots for smalls, 200 isn't that bad. I've done really lovely 2 floor builds with less than that.
Now, mediums and larges DEFINITELY need more.

Theres a LOT of hingan bookshelves in that picture; the last picture along is near 50 items due to the 8 concealed deadmans chests and 4 bamboo planters alone. The majority of shots I see many more deadmans chests used for those nightsky windows; second last photo looks like there is a custom dropped ceiling - given how low it is there is a good chance that they put ponds on top of those flooring mats to stop jumpers from being shot into the roof. The kitchen in shot 3 is about 43 items by my count (the island in the kitchen likely has another bookshelf facing it to hide the side we do not see)

I actually think they should probably look at the area of a small and divide it by 200, then use that to calculate the item budget of a house. The logic they applied was probably 100 items per "room" (Larges having 2 "rooms" on the top floor) which is pretty much spot on for smalls - tight for Mediums and silly for larges. Because the basement of a large really is prohibitive.

Its a common trend I see in japan where the locals will buy a large; then build a entire house in the basement of a large....complete with doorway and entrance.

This build is mine, I cut the other person's pics so my post wouldn't be too long. The kitchen has a bit less than that, the fridge is only 4 slots :p, so counting items that aren't shown in the picture and excluding the ceiling/window, it uses 27 slots. But you're right, there's a LOT of bookshelves here lol. I didn't place ponds though, I don't mind that the camera can see a bit more than it should if I zoom out too much.

Here's my house that I just finished- it's a small but I was not able to utilize the bottom floor
I clutter decorate- I hate modern styles bc of how empty they look

but If I had more space, 300 or 250/275 instead of 200, I wouldn't have to cut corners with this build. It may not look it but alot of corners were cut :(

That is so considerate thank you!! You've made my week ^^

The solution would be more variants of partitions that is longer and the lieks and maybe with dual layers where you can dual color them or so... anyhow the challenge IS with housing... and the real challenge IS to use all floors in the house with the given amount of item spaces we got now... many end with locking off areas, which makes it question one, why chose medium and large to begin with?

I think the numbers the OP posted may be a bit too high, here are my more modest slot expansion ideas.

Apartments/FC rooms: 150
Cottages: 25 outside, 250 inside
Houses: 40 outside, 400 inside
Mansions: 60 outside, 600 inside

Mansions should get the largest expansion if they had to choose one size for slot expansion since 400 is way too small for how large they are. I actually would like to fill up the entire space of all floors without it looking barren.

I just want the f****ng ability to change the interior and ceiling and remove the godawful pillars. Most of the slots go to hiding them.
