I freaking LOVE the Housing system in FFXIV!!! Okay, I personally wish we could make some improvements to the act of *acquiring* them (personally, I think it should be possible to sell or trade the "Deed" to your house, just like a regular item), but in terms of customization, I still find myself regularly surprised with what players can come up with!

Over the past year or two, I've noticed a LOT of new types of buildings, which is even more exciting! But since my friends were finally able to acquire houses of their own lately, we've all been on a bit of a deep-dive in terms of decorating, and I've had some ideas crop up!

In no particular order, here are some Housing STYLES I would like to propose:

- An over-the-top style House, courtesy of the Golden Saucer! Have it really well lit-up, maybe even spotlights or something like that. Just go super tacky with it! It could be fun.

- Much like the "Forge" style buildings to a lot of shake-up the overall shape of your house, maybe one style of "building" is literally a "magic door" or gateway that seemingly isn't connected to anything, but still leads to your house? The surrounding area might instead be covered with magical runes or something.

- A "Crystal Tower" inspired place might be cool.

- I could really only see it working for a Small, but a "tree-house" design might be kind of cool.

- Particularly with the advent if Ishgard's housing area, I'd also like maybe more of a "fortress" than typical house.

- I'll probably do a terribly job describing this, but perhaps some kind of "house" made of stone, with ivy growing up the sides, and big stained-glass windows on the outside?

Alright, that's about all I've been able to think up for the BUILDING styles. Now some other ideas I'd love!

Again, in no particular order:

- Perhaps it would be possible to have your Retainers randomly walk around the housing areas? That could honestly liven things up quite a lot!

- I would LOVE to have some way of customizing your "Floorplan" or "Layout". Perhaps you could offer different options (ie. instead of every Small you enter with stairs to the right that lead to the basement, you could instead enter from the "bottom floor" and have an upstairs?). I would LOVE to be able to "LEGO things together", maybe having different styles of room:

Take a LARGE House, for example. Maybe you could replace the downstairs with a large ROUND room, and instead of going downstairs to access, you have a small doorway on the left you walk through. And maybe instead of the split-staircase with the opening in the center, you simply have the stairs lead up slightly to a large doorway, and another large "room" to decorate?

- Being able to teleport to your house should NOT require a Mini Aetheryte, imo. With house items being limited as they are, every single item we can spare is precious. Perhaps we can pay to replace the normal Placard with the Aetheryte? Even better, perhaps that could be upgraded again to also function as a mailbox?

- I understand data is kind of limited. That said, I would LOVE the ability to expand the number of items you can place in a yard!

- Also, it would be kind of nice if you could move where EXACTLY your hour sits in your plot, or even just rotate it. So maybe you could bump it towards the front of your property and instead have a BACK yard!

Anyways, that's all I can think of right now!

What about you guys? Any additions you guys can think you'd love to see added?
