While we're just sort of here dreaming up nice things, I'd love it if home decor setups had a glamour plate loadout system for saving and reapplying decor you've worked with in the past. So let's say it's halloween and I decorate my apartment for that holiday. Obviously I don't want it to be halloween all the time in my apartment, but I still spent lots of time and gil making it look that way. So I open my "apartment-glamour-plate window" and "save" the halloween setting in plate 1. Then I can tear it all down and begin decorating for, say, Thanksgiving or Christmas. Next year comes and it's halloween again. No problem. I remove all the furniture currently in my apartment. Then I open my apartment glam plate window again, toggle over to plate 1, press "apply," and the halloween glam from last year is reapplied: every piece of halloween themed furniture is placed into my apartment in the exact same spot as last year.
In this way, housing is given far more replayability. Because after you finish decorating once, you can save it and decorate again without worrying about losing everything. I notice a lot of people get their dream home, decorate it once, and then just kind of leave it that way -- and for good reason. Decorating is tough, and the more intricate things like floating, etc. can take a lot of time and trial/error. Tearing it all down is heartbreaking. Under this dream system, you wouldn't ever have to. Of course this would apply to homes as well, not just apartments.
