So, going back to the Retainer Counter, you could recreate that indoors with the Glade Counter, 2 Glade Lamps, an Inkwell and Classified Documents. As I said before, that's 5 furniture slots. Hit "Merge" however, and the 2 Glade Lamps, Inkwell and Classified Documents are now part of the Glade Counter, essentially it becomes the Retainer Counter you can have outdoors (although you might lay things out differently). They desk clutter is essentially deleted, freeing up 4 slots, and the Glade Counter now has them fixed in the same place they were when you hit "Merge". You wouldn't be able to customize them anymore, you'd probably lose them outright if you removed or stored the Glade Counter, but I'd say it would honestly be worth it just to free up those furniture slots.

An idea for the devs to kick about at least... All I know is that it'd probably be worth another 50 furniture slots for me... Table-top and wall-mounted furniture are both the best and worst pieces of furniture in the game... Best because they can add so much detail to an area, worst because they just eat into your furniture limit without really filling any extra space... A "fix" for that would be great, or just an expansion to the furniture limit, either/or as far as I'm concerned.
I don't think that would be feasible as the reason the pre-built furniture works that way is because they can call up furniture piece 101 and it's already in your client pre-built. Custom merging would still require it to call up all the singular pieces as it does now. The only real use for something like that would be more of a grouping feature so you could move a lump of furniture all at once, but it wouldn't save any furniture slots.
