Housing Ideas and Feature Requests

I'd also like to request a topiary tonberry with a bright functional lantern.

Love this idea!

Probably already in this thread somewhere but...

Invert or mirror corner counter furnishings, it's beyond irritating having a perfect kiosk idea unable to be done due to the counter only coming in one direction or angle... even MORE irritating when I see them SAME corner pieces elsewhere in Eorzea mirrored together.

Sent this through in-game suggestion letter, but I'd also like to put it on the forum.


Dear SE, please give us new Partition solution,

Currently, we don’t have many choices with Partitions. It is very limited. And most of the time, it does not match well or even go along with the Wallpaper (Interior Wall).
Would it be possible if you, for example, invent a new way for making a Partition.

I would like to suggest that you add a new recipe “Custom Partition” in the game. If you want it to be challenging, you can make up a story of a side quest, introducing an excellent interior designer NPC who gives out the quest to unlock this special recipe. Recipe could be level 50 or 60 and is universal (available for any craft class, just like the dye pots).

After crafting this partition, adventurer can pair it up with an Interior Wall of their desire, and trade them both to the NPC, and he or she will merge them together to form a specific design of the Custom Partition. It will become, for example, “Custom Partition: Wavy Interior Wall” which can be differentiate easily by players when they see the item. The item icon can, and should, show the pattern of the interior wall it is made of.

This can be yet another unlockable function, where players are required to finish some tasks to make the NPC available for the trading.

While you are at it, I would also like to suggest you to add more Interior Walls. Currently, there is no perfect wall to match with Oriental Partition. One of the latest additions of Interior Wall, Wavy Interior Wall DID look quite oriental, but the pattern is too cluttered and does not fit that well with Tatami Flooring. Even if I choose some of the currently “Orientalish” Partitions and Interior Wall that have wooden colour and design, the colours still don’t go well with Oriental Partition, and makes the combination an ugly mismatch. An Oriental Interior Wall, Oriental Monochrome Interior Wall, Oriental Plain Interior Wall, for example, and perhaps a Bamboo Interior Wall, will be greatly appreciated.

Best regards,
A housing enthusiast.

Also, a friend asked for a fish tank or aquarium.

I would also would officially like to request an aquarium, size depending on what size home it is placed in. We spend hours at your mercy catching epic fish. I would much appreciate not having to kill them and stick them on the wall. they should be alive for all to enjoy.

Which, I completely agree.

Can we get a tile based "rug"? Something to put under the shower to maintain my sanity... I'd use the tile based flooring, but IMO that doesn't work for the entire floor... Putting down one tile based "rug" seems better than having the tile flooring and putting down several rugs to cover it...

I'm not sure if it's possible but - can we have past furniture at the calamity salvager if we have the respective title for that event? That'd be awesome!

- Still like to see different ground terrain alternatives like cherry blossom filled grass or sand/beach terrain for the summer event.
- Any word about a outdoor pool? That'd be a nice summer event outdoor item.
- Also something like a bridge surrounded by a pond would be very pretty.
- More eastern/oriental housing glamours in general

Can you please also consider making the housing NPC (Mender Permit, Steward Permit, for example) a "Tabletop" item and also make something for them to stand on? Like maybe turning the Lalafellin Step Stool into a table. So that we can place our NPC on top of the Step Stool.

Because counters are great but the Lalafell NPC is completely hidden by a counter, due to the height.

My solution was to put a Purification Module underneath the shower. It's a 'rug' that isn't fabric, so you can pretend that it works as a shower drain. As a bonus it lives up to its name as a 'purification' module, and you get to shower in a bubble hologram if you turn it on.
