Housing Ideas and Feature Requests

[Morbid]

Extra tall Royal Partitions would be nice. I like the design of them but they don't have a tall ceiling reaching option.

I'd like to see a version of the Mahogany Partition Door to match every housing type (Glade/Oasis/Riviera).

It's your only option if you want a ceiling height partition with a door, but the kind of wood it's made out of doesn't match our houses at all - it ends up sticking out like a sore thumb.

I didnt went through the whole thread so see if it was mentioned already (sorry in advance^^') but me and a friend were talking about the minigames in the GS recently (all those little automats were you can play a game for a hand full of gil) and since we're lacking furniture to interact with/give the house some purpose I thought those (or something similar) in our homes would be great! So: Some machines, that will allow you to play a little game, please!

I would love to see more housing decor with a "doma" theme, like roofing styles for example, it could be oriental-esque and curve at the corners, have far eastern dragons carved in, those sorts of things. And perhaps more far eastern artwork to hang on our walls. It is wonderful that they added in tatami mats and sakura trees but it would be amazing to have an entire ninja compound going~ hoping they add the dojo theme from the ninja guild to the sheet music available for our music changer decoration. just a thought.

Also katana and armor sets like those from ffxi (sort of guessing that those will be introduced when/if samurai is though)

Also it would be nice to be able to change the door/window style in personal rooms.. a bright plain door in an otherwise very ornate room stands out in a bad way.

It is rather greedy of me as these are all things i want personally for my au ra ninja but.. ideas!

What I would wish for is a room-high window front like in the inn rooms. My personal downside with the interior of the housing is the tiny windows they have while we could have "natural" light flooding through a huge window like in the inn room. It's already in the game too so I think it should be easy to add to housing, no? Don't have to be able to actually see what's outisde, just the effect it gives in the inn...I love that a lot! Imagine how pretty and inviting this would look with a couch, a table, and teaset arranged in front of that. Add a plant and a bookstack. Can we have that please :3 (If not because idk why, maybe just larger windows so it let's the sun shine in like the new house skins)

Not sure if its posted already I just read they might be upping the amount of indoor furniture (YEY). However I would love it the amount outdoor furniture would be upped as well I am already hitting max amount of things placed and 2/3 of my garden is still empty and this is on a small plot >_>.

Those trees,rocks and small items here and there tend to add up fast :P Was aiming for a nice nature like garden >_>

I just got my first house! \o/ xD

Quick question, am I able to have a Riviera external wall even though I am in the Goblet? no biggie if not, but it would be a great feature to be able to do this, if it isn't already available to be done.

Grats Viu! Sadly though you can't have other areas' housing skins. Only those that are available from the menu you can open directly on your plot. It says it in the description of the item too for which area they are useable. You can use moogle skin or one of the crafters' skins anywhere though! Would be nice if that was possible, I do like the roof of goblet houses (if only there were stairs and you could put items there, I could have a beach house roof party! One may dream right?!)

This would be an excellent thing for a housing glamour. The company workshops would be busy like crazy to produce these. They also need to either add in a sakura tree alchemy recipe or they need to create a vendor for all the old seasonal housing items because we can't buy them from the calamity vendor like we do the seasonal gear and they don't sell furnishings in the mog store. I would absolutely loves to have this theme for my house. They should also come up with more doman themed interior designs such as the shoji screen walls, the lanterns, wall hangings and more furniture all together. Maybe for the exterior we could have a Torii gate at the entrance. They created the housing glamours and should really take advantage of the workshop's potential. There are a crazy amount of possibilities if they used the workshop as a way to open up new housing designs, landscapes, interiors etc. Right now I have tons of airship mats and nothing to spend it on. I'd love a steady supply of new recipes to be released so I have something to use the mats on. Its also really nice that the glamours are tradeable so we can sell or give them away. Nothing like having your FC work together to help glamour a member's house or to make gil for the whole FC.

On these items descriptions, you will either read "to use exclusively" and "to complement". The first group is restricted to their respective neighbourhoods, while the second one is just made in their style, but can be applied anywhere.

As a rule of thumb, Outer walls, roofs and fences are usually restricted, while awnings chimneys and placards are not.
