And that's a pain in the butt to do.

That's wonderful, thank you!

With starlight season coming on I am always excited to decorate my fc house with all the pretty lights. But it just breaks my heart that the grass and flowers in my yard ruin the whole winter effect. I just wanted to throw out the idea of a new house shell (perhaps a reward in the starlight event) made to look like there is snow on the roof and decorated with lights, but most importantly with a layer of snow that fully covers the yard.

We need 1/2 and 1/3 size walls of all varieties, curved walls, basic dyeable pillars, blank lofts you can apply flooring options to, blank doorways and archways, blank flooring furnishings (like rugs you can apply flooring to), basic dyeable picture frames, planter partitions with multiple vase like slots we can arrange flowers in, hanging flower pots and more variety of flower pots in general. It would also be nice to be able to dress the venders how we want (for some reason they let us dress the custom delivery npc in this way), Elemental effect "lamps" think darkness, snow, electricity, etc.

1) Upper floor for small and medium houses, the tradeoff would be no lower floor in these cases.
2) Balcony for apartments & large houses
3) Option to remove all chandeliers
4) Add wardrobes
5) Add float/sink/lower option to all items
6) Removal of all built in windows
7) Larger item limit for apartments and small houses.
8) The ability to use multiple floorings on one floor

1. An upper vs. lower floor would be spectacular. I'd be happy with an option for all houses to have private rooms, ala FC rooms, that would be the equivalent of an upper floor/attic, even if we don't get a non-instanced extra floor.

2. This would probably have to be instanced, as mentioned above.

6. This thought, and others' suggestions of removing pillars has me wondering if the interiors of houses are a skin like we have for exteriors and not a conglomerate of individual items. If so, perhaps making all interiors be straight blank slates would be a good thing. That way we could make/buy custom interior skins if we wanted one of the stock interiors.

1) A medium house already has 3 floors (an upper and lower floor plus the main floor). I'm confused what you're asking for here, especially since you don't include the large house as well.

This

I want all of this and item limit increase for housing and apartments
and to better clarify what you mean by sink/ float etc- that would be like an x,y,z axis menu which would make decorating 100x easier

Basically that we would have a ground floor, an upper floor, and an attic for our mediums instead of a basement, ground floor, and upper floor.

Allowing us to save our furnishing layout (and load them) would be nice and useful in several ways:

1. We can avoid having to redo our existing decoration after relocation to another plot.
2. We can try out new furnishing / concepts without having to redo the decoration if it turned out to be unsatisfactory.
3. Quick switching of decoration themes based on seasonal dates/occasions becomes a reality.

Hopefully the development team could consider it and at least look into the feasibility of implementing this. Thank you :D

This is a good idea.
As a complimentary idea:

The owner could also export that layout, so designers could do decoration commissions without having to make alts in other servers, level up to unlock dyes, etc.
