Boost house functionality

(1) Treat stairs as a texture (such as walls, floors, chandeliers) and allow you to cycle between the stair types we have today (narrow stair (small house), dual stair (medium house) or wide stair (large house)).
In this situation SE can add more stair types later if they so please it.
I advise they do the same for the in house pillars. Having more style possibilities can enhance the design.

(2) Open up the balcony door so you can go from inside to outside and the other way around. Also add a trapdoor to the roof.

(3) Allow us to move the location of the workshop and make a separate door for each of the private rooms if you so wish it (great for Fc's that have rooms dedicated to gambling, crafting, etc (just not ERP!) xD

(4) Allow us to make certain architectural decisions like moving the position of the pillars, the windows and even "hide" them if we so choose it! Also, we should have the ability to sacrifice/hide/lock rooms and "get something in return".

I wouldn't mind sacrificing my mansion basement if I knew that doing this gave me 50 additional item slots to be used on the other floors.

Do you also want to change the game name to (building house simulator) ?

Isn't that what it already is? Actually, Final Fantasy Fourteen: Fashion Fiends, may be the better title.

They talked about issue with the balcony door in the 2019 EU FanFest Q&A. They said it can't happen because of the way house instances are designed.

They can't allow players move the workshop/private chamber door or allow you to add multiple copies of it throughout the house because it's the entry point to those other instances.

You might not mind giving up your basement but other house owners likely would.

No need to when there's more than housing to the game. Housing in some other MMOs let players freely do some of what he suggests. There's nothing extraordinary about it. Sadly, FFXIV didn't incorporate those features into housing design here and the lack is hindering what we can accomplish.

More options are always better, so have my kudos! ^^

I still don't understand why we don't have this.

In that case they can add exterior garden items like a stair that you can put on the side of the house and reaches up to the roof, and a smaller one for the balconies. The HoH building isn't high enough for most buildings and is too big & annoying to climb.
The private door thingie was just a suggestion and isn't really required.
