About housing items

So, this has been bothering me for a while. I get that housing is not really a primary focus in this game, so we rarely get any matching items. And when we do, well:

Not only colors do not match (even when dyed), the thickness doesn't match either.

And then we get this beautiful dyeable fountain, that looks like this when colored:

We rarely get new housing items. We haven't yet got a matching door for newer partitions, which is fine, but can we please at least get matching items that actually match? And dyeable items that don't look like someone didn't care?

Sorry, but this is becoming increasingly common, you're already investing time into make these, so why do this? :c

It's mostly because of the low brightness, the color works fine on full brightness...

And yeah those different lightning annoyed me lol

Yup, I did realize at some point it was due to the way the surfaces reflect light, but why can't all 3 be made to match?
The fact is we can adjust brightness. It's only 5 settings, so it shouldn't take devs much time to test that :<

They've accepted it as a bug, so hopefully we get a fix next patch: https://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/...ghting-in-game

That's good to know, hope they do fix it because it's been this way for a year or two, only the curved one made it even more noticeable this was been overlooked.

I still wonder if they even test this, because at no lightning level do the items match. how do they make "matching" items then.
At least I would think of testing it against other items of the same type to check if they indeed work fine together.

Here it is at full brightness and you can still see the difference.
